          lol tankies trying so hard to rationalize what China and Russia is wrongly doing now for what US may or may not have wrongly done in the past.

          But tu tuoque / two wrongs make a right, amirite gais!?

              lol who cares. Irrelevant to the conversation. Why fixate on the past when the topic is the wrongdoing happening now and that can be thwarted now?

              • Anti-capitalism
              • No tankie
              • USA bad!
              • Doesn’t side with China.

              What a unicorn!

              Tell me, Mr. Anti-capitalist, how’d you acquire the device you’re using right now?

                  Oof, looks like I hit a nerve and won.

                  Again: Tell me, Mr. Anti-capitalist, how’d you acquire the device you’re using right now?

                  I’m not even a liberal, haha! I’m actually left of there. Closer to a Social Democrat.

                Manuel Zelaya, Salvador Allende, Fidel Castro, Aristide (oops, we fixed it though, all better now see?), a whole generation of North African warlords, Milošević, Afghanistan, Askar Akayev, Ismail Haniyeh…

                After a certain point I started just copying from this article; there are plenty more. I won’t say you’re 100% wrong but neither is the person you’re talking to, either.

                    Those places all shit holes way before we involved ourself. Just because they’re still shit holes after we leave doesn’t make it our fault.

                    That’s enough Lemmy for the day, I think
