You're viewing a single thread.
Always projection when the US shouts about others doing the same.
I mean, others are doing the same. We know because it makes it harder for us to meddle in foreign elections. And of course Russia, China, North Korea, Iran, they're going to interfere with our elections as much as they can. President Trump was very good for them, and his voters are easily swayed.
"Everything that I don't like is because of foreign intervention."
Your country is racist, elected a racist. Take some time to self reflect on your history and own up your faults. Civil rights movement was 40 years ago, and it was very unpopular because you're mostly racist. It didn't change, it was just ready to erupt again, because your country is inherently racist.
Using "other countries do it too so we do it on a larger scale to more countries" is only defensible for wanks when you're caught doing shady shit time and again.
you wanks have been using the same argument with supplying the genocide.

Have some humility and empathy for one fucking moment of your life, miserable cunts.
Touch grass dude, no one is defending the US here, two things can be true at once.
I always love when someone from a country with a homogenous ethnic and cultural background tries to tell me about how racist the US is.
Lots of strawmanning right here
Hey, maybe stick to .ml. They like to ban conversation and put people in their place. That seems like the home you're looking for.
Sounds like you need a visit there as well, you’d do well to be put in your place. Liberal.
On full display for all to see
Such progressive ideals! Truly an ambassador for a better future
What's your opinion on the Romani people?
It is a matter of scale, the US does it to grow and maintain hegemonic power and others react in kind.
That makes it sound like you think that its only wrong with the US does it?
It's like American exceptionalism for people that don't like America
Welcome to Lemmy
When Russia interfers in elections it gives the stalinists someone to talk to online, so they feel less alone. Clearly better than the US, who just assassinate democratically elected leaders and shit.
No but there is a measure of who had caused the most harm for their own good. US #1
This is hopelessly naive.
Right back at you buddy.
You really think that for the entire duration of the russian empire and its successor states (to this very day) all those vassals actually had a say in their government? There’s no helping you.
Talking about the US.
others react in kind.
Jesus Christ, dude. The russian empire predates the American state. They’ve been subjugating client states for a long, long time. They’ve been undermining the free will of countless Eurasian peoples for centuries. And they’re more active in that arena now than they were back in the old days.
No need to be belligerent with commonly known facts. Still the 100+ year global hegemonic run of the US far exceeds the Eurasian hegemony of the Russian empire in terms of lives lost, economic impact, and ecological loss.
You have no idea what you’re talking about. Stalin alone killed some 20 million people. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Excess_mortality_in_the_Soviet_Union_under_Joseph_Stalin.
Uh holomodor calling, as example.
The Holomodor is truly an horrific genocide of the Ukrainian people caused by the Soviets.
The US has perpetrated or backed the following genocides:
- The Native American genocide
- African and African American genocide in the US
- The Palestinian genocide
- The Bangladeshi genocide
- The Guatemalan genocide
- The Yemeni genocide
Not even getting into the mass death caused by American sanctions.
