They prefer to be more subtle about it, I would imagine Trump: threatens to genocide all of Iran Liberals: would bomb the entire country without threatening genocide, even though they would probably be hitting civilian infrastructure "by accident"
Yeah to quote some lib coworkers I've had they'd just call it government infrastructure, and that collateral civilian damage is just an unfortunate part of liberating them because they only hate "the government not the people".
Same glee they've shown when discussing how breaking apart the USSR was the greatest human achievement despite all the fcking evidence of the suffering endured by regular people and children during the 90s and 2000s.
And the racism they exhibit towards the DPRK and China are probably identical to how conservatives might exhibit racism (they both feel empowered by the ability to be racist without backlash).
Yeah they become no different to their neocon counterparts as soon as as a lib is scratched lol
why should I eat my vegetables?
we wouldn't want our enemies to be more healthy than us do we? 😆
we should feed them soy so they turn into vegan communists :>
Sometimes, I wish the US would undergo some "liberation" á la Carpet Bombing just so that these fucks could get a real-life taste of what millions have been subjected to abroad and are now forced to live with the memory of massacred family members and friends.
9/11 is remembered every single year, but how many 9/11s they have committed every day to other nations is totally under wraps
i wish various forms of that quite often
