    And then people wonder why everyone hates China. “Why do people complain when they claim territory that isn’t theirs?!?! US dID iT tOo!!!1!”

    Dunno, tell me in last 30 years, when did US commit and kept commiting an active genocide? Do they suppress other language than american? Do they tell Canadians or Mexicans that they “belong” to them and feint invasion?

    As a european, its good to have US by our side because I know that when a shit dictatorship shithole like China or Ruzzia attacks, they will be the first to bomb them to the stone ages.

    Fuck China. Fuck Ruzzia. And fuck anyone who supports them.

      Well, the FBI has been treating the citizens of supposed “sovereign nations” pretty badly the entire time. We still are shitty to the Native Americans. That being said, just cause the US is shitty, doesn’t absolve the CCP of their shitty behavior.

        I agree that US did and still does many shitty things. However, China and Ruzzia are so much worse that it’s almost incomparable.

      Can we differentiate between the people and the state or government here? I don’t want the us to bomb anyone because there’s no way it doesn’t hurt innocent people.

      I wish power to the people of both China, Russia, Hong Kong to be able to influence their political climate in a way that works best for their actual health and well-being.

        It’s very difficult to not want Ruzzia bombed to dust when they killed my friends.

        I hate ruzzia with every fibre of my being, and it’s no one fault but theirs.

      Your argumentation is similar to that of tankies. The US undeniably did shady shit to maintain hegemony over the last century and the whole past 911 thing was an unreasonable fiasco that cost the lives of over a million people.
      It’s just that autocracy is no alternative in any form and it’s the biggest enemy of a free world.

        Never said US is good, just good to have at our side.

        US is bad, but China and Ruzzia is infinitely worse. Like uncomparably worse. If you are under the wing of US and you diasagree, 99.99% chance fuckall happens. If you do the same under the other two, you are jailed or you die.

        I don’t blindly defend my state or ally states. Tankies like you do.
