You might’ve missed the word “pretending” in both of my replies

There was no effort

Dunno how you understood what I wrote but bringing freedom, liberty, civilization, whatever, that was the tiny effort to pretend it wasn’t just about subjugation and resources.

It’s an interesting twist to American/Western exceptionalism to think either are especially evil and imperialistic, instead of them just having been the strong ones/those in position to do those things. It’s not like there have ever been empires outside of US/West…

Positive changes and self determination? I feel like increasingly more “might makes right” world with more countries feeling free to bully their neighbors is going to cause the opposite. At least there was some, however tiny, effort in pretending that wasn’t how it worked.

I think the kids in Greenland are happy with upsetting Americans on social media

🙄

What more would you want, some talking head on legacy media??

It’s like Sonic and WTC

Below 18C isn’t great because of humidity, it can cause issues. 21C seems to be the sweet spot on Finland for health and comfort

Finland the normal indoor them I think is 21-22

They wanted to make Americans upset. They succeeded

That seems to be the mindset. Pretty wild “enemy of my enemy is my friend” type of stuff to see self-described socialists and communists rooting for a conservative theocracy.

Vietnam’s population was a lot larger and the population was way less concentrated. Tiny concentrated population is a much easier matter to “deal with”

The comment just said that you could genocide most of the population. Not that it would resolve a conflict

I don’t think there’s been much conversation tbh. You’ve just reiterated the same position again and again, even though we both understood what you said.

Sure, but may I suggest: More bombs

It seems you’ve just chosen a position with very little actual care for what the Iranian people want themself. Even going as far as you’d oppose them in their will if it doesn’t align with what you think is best for them.

What if the Iranian people don’t agree with your view of the “real world” and what they should do, according to you?

It’s a position you yourself took, not sure why you are upset with me

I mean I was talking about the same hypothetical as you were. You wouldn’t support the will of the people in a situation where it was to take down the theocracy and I would. I wouldn’t be speaking for anyone, just supporting their own will in that situation.
