Okay. So, since our resident libs are all sky screaming about the Russian meddling.... still....

I was hoping they could come in here and go on record on their opinions of our meddling in other countries affairs.

So, liberals. If you would please inform the board how you feel about the United States of America doing the following:

Supporting regime change/puppet states/dictators/meddling in elections

Spying on our allies/neutral states/enemies

Using our clout to force other countries to bow to our will, encompassing economics, militaristic, and social policy.

American companies using their platform to suppress or highlight certain views in order to skew public opinion

Directly interfering in other countries elections





I await your honest, prompt, and unhypocritical responses

I agree with this post. Let’s clear up the hypocrisy once and for all.

I love the US, but the outrage about Russia possibly doing what we’ve been doing for decades and decades is laughable.

I just want some honesty. This last week I’ve seen them cal for outright invasion of Russia over this, I’ve seen them call it the most blaitant display of hostility and an act of war. I’ve seen them say that they’re the only country that does this sort of thing (lol)

I just want some honesty. I’ve tried to ask them separately several times and they immediately log off and ignore. Just to come back hours later once that thread or post gets buried.

I don’t know why they are scared to answer these simple questions.

How do people feel about us telling countries they need to denuclearize?

Not sure you can simply wrap up everything the US has done to “meddle” in other countries business and say I’m “for”’or “against”. I’ll consider on a case by case basis. Was it good for Americans and the principals we stand for? Then I’m okay with it.

You okay with Russia trying to influence our elections?

This, and they act as though this is the first time the Russians have ever tried to do this. Do they honestly think the Russians (and Soviets prior) didn't try to screw with our elections?

I'm not. Are you okay with foreign money influencing our elections? This question has been around for a long time that has yet to be addressed. Remember, the Clinton's have a way to circumvent any law out there regarding the subject matter, otherwise her arse would be living in the crossbar hotel.

We've literally destroyed countries and installed governments

Usually under the guise of "in the interest of national security"

Do you care about that? Is it right or wrong or does it matter?

Should we defend Russia for similar tactics? Is it always right or always wrong?

I personally don’t like America being the world police. I also understand the difficult position that we are in when NoKo is controlled by a dictator threatening our country with destruction. It’s a tough line to toe between protecting the US and overstepping our bounds.

Yeah. I am okay with it. Because I’m not a pussy that screams when I get punched back after I punched someone.

If it’s fair game for us to use, it’s fair game for them to use.

See; that’s what is called not being a hypocrite

Damn son. You’re really mad.

How am I a racist?

How am I homophobic? (I’d REALLY love to hear this one. I love gay guys. The more there are of them, the more females there are for me)
