      That you’re somehow still focused on “Democracy” (“proud” no less) rather than “genocide” is mind-boggling. You can’t pretend to be self-righteous about American invasions and then just say “whoops, a little genocide, not really important in the grand scheme of things though”.

          I’m not lecturing the world. I’m lecturing you. You have shitty morality.

              Saying we’re complicit and should try everything we can to stop it is the whole fucking point. Amazing that you came around to that without ever getting it.

              I’m not unclear about whether this is a horrible moral tragedy. You’re the one downplaying that. A lack of power to change it isn’t a moral failing. An unwillingness to even correctly acknowledge the seriousness is.

              And you appear to be British. You don’t have a leg to stand on about complicity in imperialism both historically and in recent American efforts. If we are both defined by the sins of our nations we’re both living in glass houses. I’m at least acknowledging our sins.
