Obviously these metrics are bullshit, but it's still funny when the US can't even fit the ones pretty much designed to defend western countries on the scale.
I know it's just my liberal credentialism, but its oddly validating when the official source can no longer deny we're shit.
I've read that Mongolia has real issues with racist sinophobia as well as a messed up far right neo-Nazi movement.
Not saying the whole country is like that, I've never personally been there.
okay well less supportive of those folks specifically
Every society has its fuck ups. I'm sure most Mongolians are perfectly nice people.
Mongolia is alligned with Russia, right? Isn't it about time for Americans to learn how terrible and oppressive their president is and we should support a color revolution that is using the American and Japanese flag for inner mongolia in their protests?
nah it's not aligned with russia, they sorta keep all the imperialist powers at arms length
They must've figured they didn't do enough damage that last time they were in Baghdad.
I love how wiggas be like: "so and so blah blah blah RANDOM NON-WHITE COUNTRY NAME blah blah so this is cause for concern"
This list is complete garbage, and while it is funny that the us dropped, the bottom of the list is basically "countries the us has sanctions and embargoes against"
I don't know how I feel having Canada score well on the list, considering its basically a measure of participation in and support of American imperialism.
This list is complete garbage
These are the people telling you where all the Freedom is buried

Given that Mongolia sank and cheated a presidential candidate that was a trade unionist, so that he couldn’t be in the runoff, 2 people round, that’s pretty fitting
https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/2017_Mongolian_presidential_election “The third-placed candidate Sainkhuugiin Ganbaatar refused to recognise the results after he missed out on the second round due to finishing 1,849 behind Enkhbold, claiming that an additional 35,000 votes had been added to the total and there had been fraud“ Another comrade who couldn’t make it
