There have been successful acts of resistance and consolidations of liberty in America since its foundation as the thirteen English colonies.
The first act of resistance that consolidated liberty was the American Revolution. It wrestled liberty from the English Monarchy and gave the Americans a voice in how government ruled. The days of <em>taxation without representation</em> came to a near end.
The Shays' Rebellion (1786 to 1787) was another landmark resistance to an oppressive government. It involved armed uprisings in Massachusetts and Worcester because of the debt crisis and continued imposition of <em>taxation without representation</em> by the Continental Government of the state. The Shays' Rebellion prompted the drafting of the Constitution of the Federal Republic with the accompanying Bill of Rights. To date, the Bill of Rights has become the centerpiece of all resistance to the usurpation of liberty.
Lastly, the Civil Rights Movement (1954 - 1968) nailed the coffin of <em>white supremacy, black slavery, and segregation</em>. The Supreme Court backed the movement with its landmark ruling, in <em>Brown v. Board of Education</em>, that overturned <em>"the separate but equal facilities"</em> doctrine (Jim Crow obnoxious laws) that enveloped the liberty of America's people of color for many centuries.
Thus, the remaining constraints to acts of resistance include the eradication of American Nazism and the full acceptance of the principles of the Constitution, which recognized that all peoples are created equal before God.

Answer:
which war are you talking about, am assuming your talking about ww2.
The western allies treated the defeated nations way better than the soviets.
The soviets after ww2 from 1945-1950 committed the Prussian German genocide which is never really talked about but never the less its how the soviets treated the Germans after the war.
there was a genocide and expulsion of 13.5 million Prussian Germans. The Soviets justified this because the Germans committed horrific atrocities during ww2. Japan was treated fairly decent but mainly western allies treated the occupied territory fair compared to the Soviets. The Russians were seeking revenge as 20 or more million Russians died during ww2.
