Ukraine is worth saving. They’ve been invaded.
can the tankies stop pretending like the world is black and white please?
Iran has been a shithole for years, they’ve been killing protestors for years. the difference is that they now say it’s so many shot - and it’s pushed as a narrative.
yes it’s war propaganda - no, it’s not a lie.
Ukraine??? what the fuck
A lot of these seem like very different lies, and some of them aren’t lies at all. Americans’ perception of other countries is slanted towards US imperial interests, but that doesn’t mean shit can’t legitimately suck in those countries. Of course, even when things are bad, intervention that isn’t popular and requested won’t make things better.
Even with Iranians in revolt, even if a large number genuinely want US involvement, I doubt a contribution by this administration would make the country better in the long run. I doubt Israel getting to eliminate their biggest regional enemy for a bargain bin price will do anything good for Palestinians. I doubt the US once again demonstrating the geopolitical necessity of having nukes will make the world a safer place.
Putting tankie BS about North Korea being based or Ukraine being a puppet aside, the US only ever does anything good out of self interest, and right now the government isn’t even acting on its own, but that of Trump. He’ll attack if he thinks Iran is weak enough; not for any strategic interest, but so he can brag. Taking out Maduro did nothing for the US. Taking Greenland would do nothing for the US. They were just easy targets for him to bully, and a weakened Iran might be another.
