I am not insinuating that the US is some paragon of virtue and blameless, nor was I trying to.
I am saying that you’re falling into the same trap you’re trying to say I fell into, only from the other side.
But from the looks of your second paragraph, you’re just a tankie, so this conversation is clearly not going to go anywhere.
Trying to imitate the persona of a rational intellectual, while downvoting, and then in the same breath calling people “tankie” just makes you look like the average pseudo-intellectual hipster. Not a very helpful way to determine who and who not to give advice to, and certainly not a way to sound credible or grounded.
“Both sides” is just a cheapshot fence sitter tactic to look good, but functionally achieves nothing and benefits no one.
You’re pushing apologist narratives that are friendly to China (a current and ongoing perpetrator of ethnic cleansing within their own borders), Russia (a historical, current, and ongoing perpetrator of ethnic cleansing and genocide within and outside of its own borders, and the aggressor in the Ukrainian War), and North Korea (a totalitarian pariah state), all because those three nations have a vague historical connection to Marxist-Leninist politics (which, pointedly, they’re very, VERY far removed from these days). That’s what “being a tankie” is.
You are pushing propagandist US military narratives that advocate for the genocide, destruction and dehumanisation of US “enemy” States like China, Russia, Iran, North Korea and so on. You have precisely zero understanding of socialist history and are a malicious Western propagandist who wants to use ad hominems and paint others in a negative coat of paint and and desire to argue in bad faith against Marxists.
For this reason, I will take the liberty of temp banning you, not for a personal disagreement, but for politicising others in a bad faith and malicious manner, and for using the “tankie” word to harass people.
