Yes, you’re right, Russia brutally punishes people who tell the truth about a genocide it’s involved in by starving them in prison. Oh wait, my bad, that’s the UK regime doing these things. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/2025_Prisoners_for_Palestine_hunger_strike

You know this is one of the differences I notice in the mindset between people living under capitalism in the west, and people living under socialism in China. The former tend to be very pessimistic about technological progress because the first thought is always ‘how will this be used against me,’ and Chinese people are generally excited about new technology because their thought is ‘can’t wait to see how this will improve my life going forward.’

Gets called out on being a hypocrite, starts braying about tribalism. Peak liberal intellect in action here.

Are you using a metaphor to describe the contents of your mind here?

I see liberals are manifesting again

you get a gold star for memorizing every propaganda talking point

Can you point out to a single thing in the article that’s incorrect, or you’re just having a fit because it’s a domain your state media taught you not to like?

Immediately resorting to personal attacks when people call out our idiotic comments shows beyond all doubt who’s not well here.

I love how libs throw around whataboutism as if it was anything other than exposing themselves as having a different set of standards for themselves and others.

To be fair, sales of all products have fallen in Europe as the result of European economies collapsing. And the specific reason for American products selling worse could simply be a result of American products are becoming more expensive in relative terms for the Europeans. with the moralizing being the justification rather than the core reason. Maybe if you want some real change you might want to figure out how to get out from under US occupation first. Don’t see Europeans rushing to dismantle all those American bases.

Basically what we’re seeing is that sectarian infighting is becoming the norm in Syria. It’s not about oil, it’s about ISIS doing ethnic cleansing against all the minorities. I think he’s completely right saying that will ultimately tear Syria apart, and why it was important for the west to put jihadists into power there.

His views on Assad might be romanticized, but you have to remember that Syria was under US military occupation and brutal sanctions.

fair

There could be an aspect of cognitive decline there as well.

This could become one of the most important historical documents that inaugurated the massive expansion of the US territory. 🤣

We’ve already seen how this plays out when Trump started his trade war. The EU did a lot of blustering about being a big economic bloc, having bargaining power, etc. Then in the end Ursula dutifully flew to Scotland to sign a humiliating deal that let the US rape Europe economically. Why do you think this will be any different?

the leader of the ‘free world’

Not as small as the European politicians eating shit and calling him daddy.

That’s the beauty of having a cult though.

I feel like this sort of stuff is an intentional insult to the Europeans, like he’s not even trying to maintain any sort of decorum. And the key part is that he knows he doesn’t have to, no matter what he demands, or how crudely, the Europeans will eventually oblige.
