Maybe it’s because I’m a colonial historian but so many of these white nation states seem to behave exactly like they did in the 19th century: β€˜your leaders aren’t right for you,’ β€˜we’re only killing you/colonizing you/installing puppet leaders for your own good’

Even if both of them had been Shia, this was rabidly racist.
Imagine if every time a Israeli politician committed an atrocity she had tagged Jewish members of Congress like this

The geopolitical west fights to shreds anyone toppling statues of racists and enslavers, but celebrates murder (and toppling of a regime considered β€˜evil’). If all evil regimes need dismantling, when do we begin with the current US dispensation?

(Nah,nah, let’s appease it).

Israel and the US military have never needed a flawed algorithm to convince them to bomb schools.

That + 6 accounts on polymarket made around $1 million in profit by betting on the US to strike Iran by Feb. 28. Accounts were all freshly created in Feb and had only ever placed bets on this

Americans wlll bomb and murder people in other countries, and then demand you can only talk about in terms that make sense to them, and them alone, because they are the only ones on this planet who are human enough to matter, and the rest of us are simple fertilizer

Im 47 years old.
For as long as Ive lived, the US has wanted regime change in Iran/and been talking about war with Iran. If you're so ignorant you can't comprehend your own violent imperialist history, please stop coming into my comments and telling me why you think its the Epstein war

It feels like the United States has the most solipsistic culture imaginable, with a populace unable to parse global events through any lens other than how they are personally affected.

You never answered so I went looking because you veterans are guaranteed to always talk about all the fun you got up to invading the homes of others.

How many people did you help kill directly and indirectly?

Was it about rumsfeld when you chimed in to defend the murderers of Iranian schoolgirls yesterday?

Would you like to scroll up and see what part of this you chimed in at?
I'll remind you that it was you speaking up to make excuses for men and women who chose to follow orders to bomb a sovereign state yesterday & murder civilians at the order of Donald Trump.

So you propagandized yourself.
Congratulations.
It shows you're capable of teaching yourself new things.
Perhaps you should try that instead of making excuses for what you did in Iraq and Afghanistan

You can make the excuse that you are this way, a blind defender of US soldiers who are committing atrocities, because you weren't raised that way.
Yet you are still proudly bragging about being a marine in your bio and you are still making excuses for people committing mass murder in uniform.

Lmao then who taught you about "containment philosophy?"

You know why a child was able to figure out what you couldn't as an adult & clearly still haven't?
Because I wanted to listen.
I wanted to not assume I was better than everyone & that everyone is expendable.
It's not too late for you

You asked how I knew by age 20 before you deleted your first excuse.
I knew by age 10, when I met Iraqi refugee children so traumatized that they couldn't speak.
I knew by age 14, when my friend had a panic attack at hearing a plane flying overhead because of US jets that killed his family.

I grew up in Houston, Texas surrounded by the children and grandchildren of the refugees created by those invasions.
Children who told us, after our teachers were done lying about the US military's heroism, how their grandmother was raped by US soldiers who then burned her village down.

You would have known what the US military was about if you had bothered to learn about Vietnam or Korea or bother to listen to the countless voices that were saying that the US was lying, that UN inspectors had found nothing, that this was clearly a plot for oil.
Yet, as you just asked, you're lazy

01.03.2026 10:14 β€” πŸ‘ 9    πŸ” 2    πŸ’¬ 1    πŸ“Œ 0

If you're going to pretend that you're such a gullible little fool that you didn't know what the US military was about both before and after you joined, what is your explanation for continuing to make excuses for it after Iraq & Afghanistan, after countless atrocities went unpunished?

If that same ratio has continued to hold, it means total deaths will have reached 123,000. Truly apocalyptic violence.

Very similar to what they are currently doing to Venezuela, Cuba and Iran.

Pressure on Nkrumah ramped up after he published his book "Neo-Colonialism: The Last Stage of Imperialism" in 1965, which openly criticized precisely those forces that ended up orchestrating his demise.

The US and UK began discussions about ousting Nkrumah in 1961, and set about suffocating the Ghanaian economy by cutting off international finance and driving down the price of Ghana's main export, cocoa, hoping to create internal tensions.

on the 24th of Feb, 1966, Kwame Nkrumah, the first president of independent Ghana and co-founder of the Non-Aligned Movement, was deposed in a coup backed by the US and UK. The coup was part of a coordinated effort to destroy socialist and Pan-Africanist movements on the continent.
