My reply may sound evasive to you, but it has a point. To the extent that the world has “good guys” and “bad guys” (goddamn baby brain, you), they are people, not countries. Every country contains both, and the composition changes over time.

You really think you made an argument worth engaging with, so there you go.

    Jesus christ man, yeah I was trying to keep it simple for you guys.

    Let's rephrase. Do you think that the country I described is a positive force on the world worth continuing?

    Keeping in mind that it's at the cost of millions of innocent lives in the global south.

    What would the country ceasing to continue look like? Are we advocating for a different genocide here?

    Maybe what we want is for certain actions to cease. For “bad guys” to not be in charge anymore.

    ??? Is all you people know genocide?

    Do you think when Nazi Germany fell we just used the ovens on the rest of the Germans? Every single human being in the USSR was thrown into the ocean when it ceased to be a country?

    Jesus christ man, read a fucking history book.

    Sounds more like the second scenario I mentioned. Germany still exists, but with better people in power.

    I think we agree, we just have different ways of expressing ourselves. I too would like for “bad America” to cease to exist, and for “good America” to take its place.

    I just had to put myself in the mind of a toddler to communicate with you.

    I'm sure you think like a toddler all the time, big guy.
