Running out of missiles is what's raising alarms? Not bombing the middle east? Okay

The fact that damn near 100% of Latin Americans speak Spanish and are Catholic speaks to how thorough Spanish colonialism is. Hell, the fact that "Latin American" as a racial category even exists is a testament to their indigenous erasure. There's so much Zionist apologia from Western powers about how Jews need a homeland to protect their religion and culture. Well, where's the fervor for a Maya state? And a Muisca state? And a state for the dozens of other peoples that also suffered genocide at their hands?

The damage caused by the Spanish empire is so extensive that reparations are never remotely entertained, or even fucking mentioned, because it would ruin smol bean Spain. And we can't have that! Not Spain!!!

I'm surprised they're still federated with us considering they made that community. I guess it's because they otherwise wouldn't be able to see our posts

I think they're provoking a response so they can "prove" the aggressiveness of authoritarian China or whatever. Then they can publish spicy headlines to sway public opinion

Is "brainless" genuinely considered a bigoted term? Or is this a bit

Explain to me how murdering a bunch of Japanese grandparents, children, babies, and non-combatant adults does anything to remedy that.

By that logic, it's A-OK for Iraq to come murder everyone in NYC and for Afghanistan to kill the entire state of Wyoming.

It's funny how much the scale for the Y axis on the homeownership chart has to change for the differences in China to be noticable

I agree with you, and I appreciate the links, but I will say that this isn't common knowledge. The prevailing narrative is something along the lines of Russia invading Ukraine in 2022 for conquest and the US + allies intervening to save democracy. Tons of people will dismiss you if you point out western involvement prior to 2022 (not on lemmygrad tho).

So basically NATO has been expanding its way eastward since its foundation (despite promises not to) and has now butted up against Russia. Russia wants Ukraine to not join, but the US disagrees so here we are.

Btw this war doesn't have much to do with Putin or Zelensky, really. Replace the head of state for either country and you'd still end up with the same conflict. And people have been writing about this for decades now, Brzezinski in particular basically plotted out the US policies that led us here.
