    Imagine saying that about US soldiers who invade other countries. Or Israel soldiers in Gaza

    Some US soldiers absolutely deserve it. Not sure if you remember that footage that leaked of them gunning down civilians. I would also lose no sleep over Israeli soldiers in Gaza being killed.

    So why the false claim of a double standard?

      You clearly said “some” there. Not “every bastard”. That alone is the double standard. How do you fail at such simple logic?

      And do you see this sentiment reflected anywhere else on reddit? By the majority of the liberals and “leftists” who cheer on the total war on Russia? No you don’t. They are relatively speaking, silent when US attacks Iran. Silent when they coup and plunder Venezuela, and cheered before for economic warfare and pushing puppets like Guaidó or Machado. They are silent when they bomb Yemen. How is there not a double standard? Did you call for killing the US bastards then? No.

      And Russia said in 2008 after Bush announced that Ukraine and Georgia were going to join NATO they can’t allow that because it’s an existential threat. And when the Ukrainian people didn’t want they financed the Euromaidan with the help of ultra nationalists. But all of you are again silent on that. It never happened, the US would never do such a thing!

      You are an imperialist and a fascist. And that is all there is to it.

        The US army is so large and across a lot of places its hard to judge universally. We can go by conflict if you like instead.

        Humanitarian aid is a thing. If they are doing that they can live. And we are not on reddit. Or are you a not who got confused which site this is
