    Can you not separated what is right vs what's wrong. Democracy and civil liberties are good, there's nothing wrong with encouraging other countries to accept them. I mean look at Russia's help to socialist revolutionary groups around the world. New flash, most countries are run by very very evil people. There's no point in taking sides. Just support those that pushing for equality, democracy, and civil liberties.

      what you're doing is deliberately abstracting the situation away from reality into the realm of the sheer concepts of democracy and equality without regard for actual history or conditions

      in short, pure ideology

        Saddam wasn't just a cunt, he was a sadistic motherfuck. Go watch a video of 1979 Ba'ath Party Purge and look at pictures of chemical weapons attack on the Kurds. Honestly, I'll never forgive Bush Senior for letting Saddam's Army retreat back into Iraq to suppress Kurdish and the general uprising. Saddam should have never been allowed into power. Most countries just let genocide slide. There's no international support to remove dictators unless they hurt somebody's bottom line. 😔

                I'm saying that AOC seems to genuine care about freedom, democracy, and equality. This is something that sets her apart from the ghouls that rule most of the world.

          Yeah but in 1979 he was still on the US's payroll, wasn't he?

          He only became a “dictator" to us when he tried to start social programs in an attempt to help people.

            Shit the US supported him up until the late 80s. Not really, he didn't help people that I'm aware of, besides liberating people from this world. He got in trouble by interrupting world's oil supply.

      So you are completely ignoring that the user above pointed out that she is straight up lying about whats happening on Tibet and just respond with general slogans
