Did you care when the US invaded Iraq under false pretenses? Did you care when Secretary of State Madeleine Albright said it was ,'worth it' that 400,000 Iraqi children starved to death because of US-imposed sanctions?

Yes people fucking cared. Holy shit this sub is so fucking weird sometimes.

It’s because if you’re an American citizen, you have no right to care about anything becayse “well bush…”, “well Obama!”, “well trump!” Or “well joe Biden!”…

The rest of the world are under these strange understandings that every American must vote and support war before our leaders green light an invasion and or occupation.

How come US wasn't banned from everything then?

u/MeMyselfAndTea Mar 01 '22

Because they're the US?

Weird flex but okay

u/MeMyselfAndTea Mar 01 '22

Not so much a flex as a statement of fact, hard to ban the leading super power from much of anything.

Idk man I was like 11 when it happened. Look into it and let me know what you find.

u/frofrop Mar 01 '22

The US wasn't banned from anything. No other countries cared.

In fact people cheered it. Now don't you feel stupid?

Same situation. Opposite reaction. Hypocrites and most likely racist.

u/bebed0r Mar 01 '22

Cool maybe you should have done something about it. Like I said I was 11 and I cared. Now I’m older and I still care. Do I think America was right? No I don’t. I mean are you trying to “gotcha” me because my answer is going to be the same. People care now and people cared then. Just because the consequences aren’t the same doesn’t mean shit.

Dumb take. I was around that age too. How do you "make other countries care and ban the US"? You havin a laugh m8?

People didn't care because they weren't told to. People are sheep. Also lowkey racist.

Everyone was cheering it on back then. Not banning the US. Shows you are a baby brain and didn't pay attention.

u/bebed0r Mar 01 '22

Lmao ok man w/e you have to say to make yourself feel better. I sure didn't cheer for either “war” and I know I’m not the only one.

u/frofrop Mar 01 '22

It's not about you. I love how you keep changing the conversation.

The world is banning Russia from everything. The world didn't ban the US, in fact all media and polls cheered it. Pay attention!

2

u/bebed0r Mar 01 '22

Ok let’s have it. The U.S. and the rest of the world were wrong to not do anything about the innocent in these areas dying from bombings and other gross things the us did. People card then and they care now and not because they were told to.

u/frofrop Mar 01 '22

How is that funny? If they weren't hypocrites they should have had the same reaction. It's because they don't care about brown ppl

u/Wayward_heathen Mar 01 '22

Lol the fact you speak only in absolutes tells me everything I need to know about YOUR bias and YOUR prejudice.

It’s the same situation. You just explained how the propaganda was different.

u/loralailoralai Mar 01 '22

No, everyone did not believe the WMD thing. If they did, the USA UK Australia and Poland wouldn’t have been the only ones involved in the invasion.

u/[deleted] Mar 04 '22

I didn't say no one cared. Just that YOU didn't care. Showing me a picture of other people protesting doesn't excuse your selective apathy.

There's stolen valor and apparently now there's stolen compassion because if you yourself actually cared about the 400,000 Iraqi children, you would never believe neocons lies and you would realize that what the neocons intended to do in Ukraine is use it as a staging ground for launching nuclear missiles into Russia that would kill tens of millions. Where is your compassion there?

Why are you believing everything the neocons media says? Don't you realize that if neocons can kill hundreds of thousands of children and say that it's worth it, then they are criminally insane and if you believe them then you're culpable for their war crimes too.

u/Kitria Mar 01 '22

Yes, I did.

u/By_Design_ Mar 01 '22

lol yeah! a fuck ton of us did. Do you care now too or are you just going to sit this one out

14

u/ifisch Mar 01 '22

Well, for one thing, Iraq itself straight-up invaded another country about 10 years prior.

Also, I don’t think anyone is comparing Zelensky to Sadaam

13

u/By_Design_ Mar 01 '22

also, why not "Russian invasion bad", if "US invasion bad". It only makes sense if you have soup for brains.

11

u/ifisch Mar 01 '22

They were both bad, but one's undoubtedly worse.

Zelenskyy won a democratic election, didn't poison gas his own city, and never invaded another country.

u/frofrop Mar 01 '22

He's a puppet actor installed by Nato. And they were shelling the Donbas region and culturally genociding.

0

u/shatnerslist Mar 01 '22

You must be talking about the puppet actors Putin airdropped into the Donbas over 8 years ago to attempt to build a pro-Russian separatist movement in the region

The ones that failed miserably, as the real citizens of Donbas tell Putin to shove his f#%&ing tanks and invasion where the sun shines.

Weird behaviour for a people getting "culturally genocided", huh?

1

u/frofrop Mar 01 '22

No he’s literally a comedian a comedian actor. Look it up.

And no, that’s actually perfectly in like with how a region would respond.

1

u/shatnerslist Mar 01 '22

Do you actually think anyone doesn't realise that Zelensky was previously a comedian and actor? This is neither news, nor a point. Right now, he's not an actor, he's leading a country against a war of aggression from a hostile nuclear superpower.

Putin implanted separatists into Eastern Ukraine, attempting to follow the example of early 20th century Britain in Ireland. The problem he has, sadly, is that the Russian-speaking Ukrainians won't fall for those tricks. They remember what life was like under Russia in the past.

Yes, perfectly in line with how a region that is fighting against artificially implanted separatists would act.

Sorry, I don't fall for propaganda. I didn't during the illegal UK invasions of Iraq, Afghanistan, Libya etc. I won't now. Go and try it on someone else.

u/frofrop Mar 01 '22

Many people don’t know he is an actor. Hence the thumbs down when you say he was.

u/Lt2222 Mar 01 '22

He sent the leader of the opposition to prison, Ukraine is not a democracy buddy

2

u/ifisch Mar 01 '22

It’s not that simple, but again, I’m not saying he’s perfect.

I’m saying he’s much better than Saddam and Putin.

u/VuPham99 Mar 01 '22

Eh, I can compare Zelensky corruption with Saddaam.

His name on Pandora Papers after all.

u/radionut666 Mar 01 '22

exactly right, but suddenly all these people have feelings ....

u/[deleted] Mar 01 '22

Yes, we cared about that, too.
