    Ah, we’ve moved on to the “maybe they wouldn’t have done this batshit crazy thing, but they would have done other things that are bad, so they’re the same”.

    Except, obviously, a good way of telling that two things aren’t the same is that they’re different. Also, in cased you missed it, Trump bombed Nigeria on Christmas day. So this isn’t an “or” thing, this is an “and” thing.

      Only clones are exacly the same. It is a fact that the US is sn imperlist power who love to destabilize and destroy other countries supported by the two political cults you have

      Trump bombed Nigeria on Christmas day.

        Who is “you”? I’m not American.

        But there are differences between both US political parties, and given the choice, any non-American should absolutely be hoping the actively fascist party loses, obviously.

        The notion that they’re both equivalent is so farcical it didn’t hold up to any scrutiny at the time when it mattered, and anybody that pushed that notion then is now partially responsible for this whole mess.

          If you are not american that is even worse to defend one of the two cults.

          Edit: Nobody said they are exatly the same. The democratic cult is better on domestic affairs but when it come to imperialism they are similar both was involved in bombing and destroying other countries

            No, it’s not, that’s not how that works. If one side is ideologically unpalatable and the other side is a gaggle of crazy fascists it’s perfectly valid to propose that one of the two sides is better than the other. Especially if you don’t have as much of a vested interest in domestic reform.

            That’s an absurdly childish stance.

              One side is better overall than the other but here we are talking about imperialism they are similar not 100% but they are similar.

              You are childish with your bullshit of the lesser of two evil. The lesser of the two evil is still evil

                Yes, the lesser of two evil is still evil. And that’s the one you vote for, or want the locals to vote for, because we’re not running on Hannah Barbera levels of cartoon logic.

                I swear, burn down the Internet. It was all a mistake.
