You're being so unnecessarily abrasive and insulting. You're totally misunderstanding or misrepresenting what I'm saying. This is a waste of time.
I'm happy you're passionate. I'm not your enemy. We both probably vote progressive. If you want to have a conversation take a step back and actually read what I wrote.
I'm asking for a coalition of likeminded nations to work together to topple oppressive regimes - call it the UN and include everyone. Ideally, do it non-militarily, but militarily if necessary.
That's what Iran needs and wants. Not whatever the fuck Israel and the US are doing on their own. That's wrong, and it's going to end badly for everyone. On that I hope we can agree.
I've witnessed too much horror at this point to care about the being civil with imperialist.
No, I'm just cutting through the euphemism and double standards. It's only a waste of time because you hold your beliefs as a matter of faith and will never reexamine them.
Yes you are.
So you don't vote Democrat?
I read it. Read it well enough to understand what you were saying.
So, Western imperialism. Because, let's be honest, you sure as hell aren't calling for a coalition of China, Russia, and India to common carpet bomb Germany. Or Sudan, Burkina Faso, and South Africa to bomb South Korea. You're just talking about western countries and their vessels overthrowing anyone not bowing to control by billionaire pedophiles. Hell. You couldn't even bring yourself for the overthrow of the most insane and evil country on the planet, Israel. Just "sanctions"
Except for the countries you want to overthrow, of course.
Western chauvanists just love to tell other people what they want and need, all while reducing them to an undifferentiated hive mind with no diversity of thought themselves. You're a white supremacist, with no interest in letting the untermensch speak make their own decisions.
How is what the US and Israel are doing any different from what you propose?
No, because your only objection to it seems to be procedural: that they're doing a sloppy job of it. You've already said that you want the Epstein coalition to act as world police.
Again, you're assuming shit that isn't true. I want China, Russia, and India to be as much part of global order as anyone else. I am literally wanting everyone to be subject to the same principle structure on the world stage. That is all.
If your argument is in practice it won't work and the biggest powers will always circumvent the rules or shape right and wrong in their own image, so sorry but we'll never get along, let's fight wars forever... Well that may be reality, and the world we're living in. That's not the world I want.
I'm not American, and I vote for a party most Americans would consider far left, woke, etc. I want a world with open borders multiculturalism, universal human rights and welfare, universal education and healthcare, and so on.
How about you, Mr enemy. What does a better world look like to you, and how are the levers of power wielded?
