The USA starves the world because desperate and hungry people are easier to exploit. Starving people and preventing people from getting accessible food serves their corporate interest because they can keep rising food prices.
Then why the hell is the US the largest contributor of global humanitarian aid? They're not just evil right? They're even bad at being evil.
Your life must be so simple. Never had to form a complex thought, eh?

The solipsism is sounding here. The world was not always as it is now. Conquest was the way the world worked for a very long time. You think these people had any concept of the damage they were doing? All you have to do is take the one extra conceptual step. Don't be so lazy.
Oh, they knew.
You know full well that they had no idea what damage they were doing to the ecosystem. If you're going to argue, do it in good faith.
Your country commited ethnic cleansing on my people, and you gloss over it like this while preaching about humanitarianism? Fuck you.
😠
If you think your people didn't do the same to whoever was there before them, I don't know what to tell you. It's fun to be a victim though, right?
Fuck YOU ameriKKKan, kiss my ass you worthless pathetic fool. Your country has killed thousands. You bombed the countries of MY people and you ignorant statesians DARE to call us terrorists and make bomb jokes about us? You truly are an ignorant mindless IDIOT. Not to worry though, your empire of “freedom and democracy” shall fall and your allies will fall too. DEATH TO AMERIKKKA! DEATH TO THE WEST!
thousands? you're off by at least 3 orders of magnitude. thousands this month, maybe.
Extreme fragility detected.
Also I thought liberals hated "whataboutism", every time a leftist makes a good argument about the immorality of the west, liberals call it whataboutism, yet that's exactly what you're doing right now. "Whatabout your people huh?".
Cracker moment.
Here is a picture of your glorious ancestors.

This you?
Literally two comments ago you were making excuses.
Liberals when they get confronted with the facts about just one of america's programs of ethnic cleansing: Literal genocide apologia
Death to amerikkka, death to liberalism
They knew damn well what they were doing, this is basically genocide apologia. Arguing in good faith, they say while blatantly ignoring what the settlers were doing.
Cracker apologetics get me fucked up every time.
The US has committed multiple genocides.
You were just indoctrinated by it's propaganda to believe they haven't.

they literally did
Even in the earliest days of European colonialism, there was very much a concept of the damage being done, look up Bartolomé de las Casas and educate yourself.
