You're having a hard time because you're realizing you're closer to being a bot than we are.

Do you agree that the Ukrainian people had the right to defend themselves from the Ukrainian government while it was trying to kill them for being the wrong kind of Ukrainian? Russia didn't just invade, they intervened in an ongoing almost decade long civil war.

There's nothing good about Russia. It's the same sort of neoliberal hellhole "democracy" as europe and america.

currently trying to genocide

This piqued my interest, since a lot of the Uyghur genocide narrative collapsed years ago to the point that even the journalists that were reporting it began walking it back.

Taking a look at who is currently reporting on "Uyghur genocide" in 2023, and it's all organisations like Voice of America, Radio Free Asia, United States Institute of Peace - basically (literal) US government propaganda agencies reporting on the US congress proceedings.

1. Why, fair is fair?
2. I wonder why they had to militarize it.
3. Argentina argues those rights aren't the UK's to grant, and it will prosecute companies bidding for rights.
4. Argentina has no de jure or de facto claim or ownership to the islands.
5. Argentina has no de jure or de facto claim or ownership to the islands.
6. Argentina has no de jure or de facto claim or ownership to the islands.
7. The people living there have no interest in being administered by Argentina.

Last time the Argentinians invaded, they immediately started rounding up people to be deported.

"imperialist outpost"

Literally just people living there, who are entitled to the same international legal considerations.

No one, full support for just killing Argentinian occupation soldiers until they go home.

How you gonna transfer ownership if the people living there don't want to transfer ownership?

edit: wait we've seen this one before, let's do some greatest hits and get hundreds of people killed again.

Settler 👌 Settler-colonial 👎💀

Sorry, my bad, you're going with "forcibly integrating".

Or maybe (radical, I know, wow), people matter equally, and we shouldn't forcibly deport or integrate them into various countries due to arbitrary vibes?

Yeah it's so inconvenient for these people to exist.

Idealist nonsense, says the person who wants to divide up all natural resources equally into amorphous national state boundaries regardless of the wishes of the people who live there, until all national states have equal populations, areas, and access to natural wealth?

Humans don't exist to create profit for the Argentinian government.

So you're saying that sometimes it's ok to conquer people who have done nothing but exist, as a treat.

This. People first. Peoples right to self determination and democracy from top to bottom in society is paramount. As communists, that principle is absolute.

Chile is only 5000 meters further away. Yes, meters.

Why shouldn't the Falklands be Chilean then?

There's a lot to criticize the UK for. Fairly inhabiting barren rocks without an indigenous population isn't one of them.

I agree, how dare the Irish occupiers squat on the western british isles, intruding into the UK's rightful atlantic EEZ. The people that live there will be returned to rightful british rule, as that is clearly what is harmonious.

what justifiable claim does Argentina have to the islands?
