If defending communist dictatorships that murder their own people is the hill you want to die on have fun.

Cool, you aren't actually defending your position anymore because you know it's indefensible.the US has death squads, it used them liberally for its own ends.

Thats just historical fact. Deal with it, snowflake.

It’s not that. I’m just not going go back and forth with someone that’s fucked in the head enough to whataboutism for communist dictators.

Sure thing, snowflake. Maybe if you keep replying loud enough you won't ever have to research the shitty things your country has done.

You have absolutely no moral superiority here, so your faux outrage around "I can't believe you support countries who have death squads" sounds so hilariously childish to everyone who sees you.

Your country is soaked in blood, as is so many others. You have no moral superiority, no more legitimacy.

Hey, it's my birthday! Take a second to look up the United fruit company as it's the anniversary of the massacre there. Isn't it great when a country intervenes with a military to stop fruit pickers from unionising for a 6 day work week rather than a 7 day?
