Buddy in consecutive posts you argued the U.S. should be liberating people in other countries and then called us enslavers of the Venezuelans

You’re very confused.

Seems like a win-win deal to me, not imperialism. Both venezuela and the US benefit from this, big time.

We didn't liberate anyone.

The only reason we helped the British and French is because they are allies and are important nations to the structural integrity of Europe. A stable Europe is good for the interests of the United States.

We took a part of Germany as it would be a good strategic point to help stop the spread of communism.

We dropped nukes on Japan and forced them to surrender so that the Russians wouldn't take over and if they did then a communist Japan would have nukes pointed straight at us in the future.

Military leaders have said if the United States lost the war then they would be tried for war crimes.

We were to the point of desperation that the military was willing to invade Japan with an estimated count of over a million casualties.

We didn't do anything good from the bottom of our hearts but to expand the influence and reach of the American empire.

I guess we should just let Japan have the Philippines again then, since they did such a bang up job in the 40’s.

Your empire is now like a tyranny: it may have been wrong to take it; it is certainly dangerous to let it go.

Except France, The Philippines, Luxembourg, The Netherlands and Belgium.

Not to mention saved China and other places in that area from being taken over to start with by defeating Japan and giving them many resources to defend themselves.

Everyone can read your posts. Stop trying to gaslight people.

You said America was better when they were liberating other countries and then said we enslaved Venezuela for their resources.

Then you told me to suck a globalists cock

You’re an idiot.

So are you saying CCP supported, drug running Maduro as leader of Venezuela was something we should of kept our hands off?


We did it to gain control over the majority of their oil reserves to bolster the petro dollar in favor of the banking cartels the government serves.

If Trump wasn't sucking off Kim Jong Un all the time you might have a valid point.

Someone asked me when we did good things. I answered. You decided to distort that because you couldn't make a valid argument.

The neocon agenda you are promoting is a globalist agenda. That's why we are in all these global conflicts.

I didn’t distort anything. I can believe you don’t understand the meaning of the things you post.

That makes sense.

Yes doing so in making it easier in defeating both Germany and Japan.

Not because they were good humanitarians.

You didn’t. You vaguely described a scenario of sending our military anywhere in the world to liberate a people you’ve decided are oppressed.

Then you said if anyone disagrees they’re globalists imperialist cocksuckers

Sure, all wars are really banker wars and what not.

But it's kind of the upside I guess?
