    your conditions are too specific. what the US did to Iraq, Vietnam, Korea,… is already bad enough. But these dont qualify because they arent neighbors of the us, and the intentions arent exactly what you listed. still, these are already bad enough.

      I absolutely love the part where you guys are all so vocal about “but the US did this and this” but have literally nothing to say about @mydude@lemmy.world up there acting like Russia and North Korea are perfect little saints while actively trying to wipe out civilians.

      Just Tankie Things™️

        dont blame me for the opinions of someone else. Just note how hipocritical you sound by dismissing criticism of the us while criticizing russia. Why not both?

        I don’t know much about Russia or north Korea’s history, but I will not stand for the whitewashing of US crimes. It’s an insult their indigenous people, Vietnam and the middle east to suggest that the US had no implications in imperial projects.

          Nice try putting words in my mouth, fuckhead. Things like Vietnam weren’t even being discussed until the tankies in this thread tried to use them as a tool to deflect from ongoing atrocities. But hey, if you’re down with bombing children’s hospitals and apartments, you do you I guess. But maybe you should try learning to fucking read before picking a side and accusing people, dipshit.

            When the US launches a violent offensive directly on a neighboring independent country with the intent of destroying its people and conquering its land, which NK and Russia are currently trying to do, maybe you’ll have a point.

            Then wtf does that mean? Also if you think the US is above bombing children, civilians and hospitals, you must have been living under a rock.

            Aren’t you the one going around calling people tankies? If it makes you feel any better, I don’t like Russia or Putin.

        So you have no defense for your selective defense of US imperialism and lash out at others when it is noted.

        Anarchist instance btw

          Selectively defends by accusing others of selective defence when they accuse you of selective defence

          Fucking lmao

          Anarchist instance

          DOUBLE LMAO

          Acting like Putin and Kim are chill is about as “anarchist” as Elon Musk thinks he is.

            Notice that rather than address the absurdity if an “anarchist” ahistorically defending US imperialism, you’ve decided to make things up on my behalf.

              I love the part where you, once again, describe yourself there while continuing to tiptoe around the matter at hand.

              Just come out and say it, already. “I don’t have a problem with imperialism, just the wrong imperialism.”

              Kill the 🤡 in your brain.

              And FWIW, I am incredibly tired of this BS, so I’m blocking you because I’m tired of you flooding my replies.

                This is just a stream of rhetorical posturing to avoid ever directly addressing any of the criticisms presented.
