her: the ussr was just as bad as nato, actually
me: fuck you for thinking that
her: where did i defend nato?
what exactly is me misinterpretating things here?
and before people get the wrong idea, no i am not claiming that the ussr was perfect, nor that the intervention was the correct course if action. im not even claiming that afghans arent justified in their dislike of the ussr.
all i want to say is that people who spew outright state department talking points shouldn't get to call themselves socialist.
"U could use basically the same argument to support US imperialism in Afghanistan" =/= "the ussr was just as bad as nato, actually"
"Fighting misogynistic terrorists" was the justification for Bush's war of terror on the Arab world.
Pointing out that you're using the same argument to defend the Soviet occupation of Afghanistan doesn't mean OffSeasonPrincess is equating the USSR and NATO.
She's equating your argument and Bush's.
We should own and learn from our losses instead of papering over them.
Your attitude is really poor and shows very little goodwill towards the other users of the site
