when using one of those emergency window breakers make sure to apply them to one of the corners of the window and not to to the middle

"So when we were negotiating with Iran it was a lie so Israel could attack it. Then we said we wanted to negotiate but that was a lie, too, so we could bomb them. So anyways, we need Iran to stop with the aggression and come to the negotiating table."
i have protested and supported all the other issues you mention and i even opposed western intervention in ukraine
but i guess if you think saying "i support russia" on the internet is some couragous act then call me a coward or whatever its no sweat off my sack it just comes off as real cringe shit to crash out over it
look at first you were saying nobody said the one thing, which they did, and now you want to get all bent out of shape because she didnt phrase this thing in an exact way to agree which is pretty much what i said in my very first comment that you took issue with. it seems to me like you just want to "win" an argument on the internet so here's your victory. i give up. i dont care about natalie or this petty bullshit to say anything further
im commenting about what she could have done considering her original post is about that issue. were i in her shoes i wouldnt say the things she says but assuming i held her worldview then sure, why not take the fence-sitter position
personally im not a fan of modern russia (or ukraine) and even though i understand the conditions in why they invaded i still dont like them and theres no point in being their cheerleaders because it doesnt move the needle anyways in regards to their inevitable victory
she said in modern history which covers about 100 years. the japanese invasion of china and unit 731 would certainly fall into that category and they are definitely not "the west" and their specific evilness is more unique than just having power at any given moment. unless you dont count that which in itself is western chauvinist
the other person did not say anything about the "current moment", by the way. you added that
I agree to never teaming up with far-right goons. But I have to ask, do you NOT see the US/the West as uniquely evil?
thats the comment of the person she replied to so she didnt create that strawman. shes literally replying to an the question where that is used
i still think the usa isnt "uniquely evil" and i stand by that as i do not believe in american exceptionalism even in the evil department
i see what shes trying to say but goddamn is she inept at saying it
i also would not classify the us government as uniquely evil because evil among white colonial projects is fundamental to them whether it be us, french, german, british, or whatever
the real question is, is this the moment to get into that argument? and why even pick a side in the russia/ukraine thing? they both suck and ukraine was always going to lose anyways. no point in tying yourself to either horse
when these kinds of ideas come into your mind try thinking about them thoroughly before putting them out into the world
because these are some extremely deranged and incoherent ramblings

Looks like they will continue to focus their military pressure on ~~Israel~~ and put the economic pressure on the EU. If the EU wants to back their colonial project they will pay a price for it.
