    Hey man I see you joined a week ago and literally all you do is argue with people.

    This isnt a healthy way to spend your time. I recommend taking up a hobby like reading or knitting

        I know you desperately want to get into an internet argument with a random stranger, but no, sorry, I’m not going to indulge you in a pointless shouting match. But given you’ve made a hundred comments arguing with people in the last day, I’m sure you’ll get your fix elsewhere.

        Even this is a bit too much, so I’m just going to ignore your comments going forward. Reply if you want, I know it will be hard to resist, but I won’t answer.

        I’ll do that! The contents of your comment are garbage, baby-brained bullshit. Next!

          Do you think the 250 year old country founded on genocide and slavery that has only not been at war for 20 years of its history is the good guy?

            I don’t think a 250 year old country is a “guy”, good or bad.

                My reply may sound evasive to you, but it has a point. To the extent that the world has “good guys” and “bad guys” (goddamn baby brain, you), they are people, not countries. Every country contains both, and the composition changes over time.

                You really think you made an argument worth engaging with, so there you go.

                  Jesus christ man, yeah I was trying to keep it simple for you guys.

                  Let’s rephrase. Do you think that the country I described is a positive force on the world worth continuing?

                  Keeping in mind that it’s at the cost of millions of innocent lives in the global south.

                    What would the country ceasing to continue look like? Are we advocating for a different genocide here?

                    Maybe what we want is for certain actions to cease. For “bad guys” to not be in charge anymore.
