Makes some sense, but not much! USA is 200+ years old and
Lavette described the morality of 19th century.
USA was (probably still is) one of the front-runners
as far as the modern concepts of freedom and justice are
concerned. 
It was quite good by those 19th century standards.

And it is totally laughable for Soviets to justify their
present day brutality by pointing to the way USA was
functioning 140 years ago.
Yes, I agree, it is propaganda. No, I do not
think it is much of a food for thought.
