darling, the europeans are as fucked up as the statesians, at least. it's easier for you in general to hate people of colour than to topple capitalism which allows this shit to happen in the first place. even your average leftist gets to be somewhat self-righteous and exceptionalist.

WTF are you trying to say?
We definitely aren't nearly as bad as the US.

"lesser evil" (and even that is debatable, ask the former colonies) doesn't mean "not evil". all in all only the irish and to some extent the balkanic will relate to us.

I agree, never said otherwise.
EU is shit.
But we aren't bombing brown people around the world every day or regime changing them.
We are guilty as vassals and accomplices in the US crimes.
We're talking about current times, not colonial. That's irrelevant

should i remind you of all the interventions you participated since the end of the cold war? the role you had in the breakup of yugoslavia? the occupation of afghanistan and iraq? the bombing of syria and libya? how you guys are providing intelligence and missile defense to israel, in fact enabling them to perpetrate that massacre in gaza? the several interventions the french do in their former colonies?

I had one intervention, a friend who drank too much and that's about it.

And just seen this. LOL
These people have no self awareness.
I'm out, there's UEFA football on TV, getting a beer and forgetting about that shithole.
