From my observation, if the western world would just mind its fkin business, the rest of the world would be happy and we wouldn't be thinking about WWIII.
I do hope one day that everything of everything gets declassified. Rip that bandaid off and prepare the guillotines (for all the oppressors and transgressors of humanity).
This is a very naive observation which assumes that any atrocities commited in China or Africa are strictly the fault of the west...
I don't know if the CIA ever mingled with Chinese politics - I doubt it. But Africa, brah, we have a bad history of what the western world in general has done in that continent, whether directly or indirectly or proxies.
That's a straw man, as I never argued that there were no western influences.
It's at best naive to think that only western influences led to atrocities, though.
Oh I'm not saying, "only". For example, the only, "democracy" in the Middle East - Israel, apparently is funding the killing of Armenian Christians.
Sea wat I did thar?
What you did there is derail the conversation from the fact that you claimed that "The West" is the only source of misery.
You're a troll and I won't engage further.
Technically, Western democracy. Pay attention to all the nations that are currently turning their backs on the U.S. and joining BRICS. Had the U.S., alone, not meddle with other nations, the U.S. wouldn't be losing the petrodollar at this moment and wouldn't be losing all the nations that have invested into the dollar. Now in the next 10 or so years... well, guess we'll have to see the turnout. I can't even speculate because it's over my head.
