1·10 months ago“enemies of democracy?”
The US constantly and persistently butts it’s head into foreign elections with millions of dollars in funding in one hand and
CIA agentsthousands of unmarked weapons useful in a coup in another, and you’re crying about enemies of democracy?The greatest enemies of democracy are the countries who lead the spread of democratic ideals today.
The problem is that the West has decided to associate democracy with liberal ideals… And then proceeds to support Israel, which democratically decided to not support those ideals.
Democracy and liberal ideals are not the same thing. One is not required for the other.
Meanwhile, the “green, climate-friendly” US is hitting record oil and record gas production. Pointing at this is deflecting from the real issues: while OPEC has cut production recently, the US is happily filling the void.
That’s the problem: oil’s strategic value makes it impossible for any one party to enforce lower production and higher prices. Any solution needs to consider all stakeholders and set aside moral grandstanding.
And yet the mods will remove any comments criticizing a mod action.

IMO bad apples don’t suddenly get reformed when rules change. If they’re willing to go on power trips, they’re going to keep going on power trips lol
Seems like some of the mods go on a bit of a power trip judging by the discussion posted here:

Maybe it’s better to just start with a clean slate?
Maybe a restriction to US news that’s reported internationally?

throwing rocks is valid protest

Straight from the mouth of Israel
what would that be lol

… ffs
That’s because Biden is an idiot
You can’t claim the US is simultaneously not frayed by the Ukraine issue and “tied up in Ukraine” WHILE sending billions of weapons to Israel
nobody in the West dares to call Israel out on their bullshit
Israel has US backing, they don’t need anybody else
yes but see brown people bad

yeah idk why people are surprised tbh
