Wait, are you saying "both sides bad?" "Both sides are the same?" Am I hearing this right?
Look, if either Xi Jinping or Donald Trump is going to emerge as leader of a global hegemon, then any and all criticism of Xi Jinping is the exact same as being a Trump supporter. When are we going to do something about all these secret Trump supporters pretending to be leftists?
At least, that's what I'd say if I accepted the absurd logic of lesser evilism the liberals were constantly berating everyone with.
No, they are saying one side being bad doesn't make "the other side" perfect or immune to criticism
The US participating in the Palestinian genicide does not excuse Russia invading Ukraine. The US invading Iraq does not excuse nationalists in India attacking Muslims
It is not the same thing, and western imperialism doesnt make non-western imperialism ok. Even if it is a lot worse
Right, and what I'm saying is that by that very same logic, Trump supporting the Palestinian genocide doesn't justify the democrats supporting the Palestinian genocide - they should not be considered immune to criticism either, and when people criticize them, they should not be assumed to be supporting the other side.
Right, so I was replying to you trying to make the meme into a " both sides bad" or "both sides are the same"-argument, pointing out how it is not
I find your answer to my reply irrelevant to the point I was making
It's not saying that both sides are bad? You sure about that one, chief?
What's it saying about US imperialism? Good or bad?
What's it saying about countries the US opposes? Good or bad?
Nothing is as black and white as it is in your head.
Grow up 🫶
Non sequitor. Where did I say anything was black and white?
Silence, imperialist.
No u.
Both sides can be bad in different ways. Just because both sides are considered bad, doesn't mean they are the same.
Correct, whether it's about countries or parties.
