You mean when they were overthrowing willfully elected governments in Latin America and supporting wanton death squads?

None of that is remotely as bad as a century of Jim Crow. THAT was evil.
Thanks for reminding us that Jim Crow WAS evil, that it WAS perpetrated at the level of the states, and that it WAS exclusively a policy and product of the US Democratic Party.
People should ask themselves: Throughout the 20th and 21st Centuries, why does the US Democratic Party rely so heavily on sowing division and discord among We the People?
Does the US Democratic Party consider such discord to be important to their political prospects for seizing and maintaining political power?
How far will the US Democratic Party go in order to keep the discord and division among us at a fever-pitch?
Does the US Democratic Party have the means and the will to use extra-legal, anti-democratic, immoral or unscrupulous methods to seize and maintain political power?

Pinochet set the economy right and then left office voluntarily. I guarantee you Allende would not have left peaceably, and he would have made Chile into what Venezuela is today. All the stupid neo commies in America worshiped this piece of shite and still kisses the arse of his depraved widow constantly.
What you got against Pinochet? That baw is a hero here. Free helicopter rides if you meet certain standards.

CIA didn't "overthrow" Allende...its a complete falsehood.
Chile was in the verge of civil when he broke almost every part of his constitutional pledge. Pinochet was HIS choice to head up the military.He was getting overthrown with or without CIA involvement.

Aren't you the person who admires what the Soviet butchers (Generals)did during WWII?
They wrote the book on "death squads" and barbarity.

while we're on this subject, let's talk about the literal "banana republics" in Latin America which were a product of U.S. corporations...
or the wars for oil...

Summarize for us, please. It would be a good reminder.

Well they do murder a lot of people overseas.
They spy on us.
They inflate our currency.
The state is definitely evil. But that’s inherent with any state.

From its treatment of Native Americans to slavery to its more recent efforts to destabilize entire regions of the world for its own interests, yes the U.S. is evil.
Please,just STFU
US is evil compared to who and what other superpower country?
Imperial Rome? Colonial England? France?The butchers of the old Soviet Union? Any other European colonial power?
No other powerful country has used its power less sparingly than the US or given people of ALL races and nationalities more opportunities.
Sad to say we are now in the process of turning into an authoritarian/totalitarian govt with a justice and state dept infiltrated leftist,critical race theorists and fascist.
If we cannot stem this tide we will truly become an evil, totalitarian country that is no longer worth saving or fighting for.

I think Damone knows this ^^^^ is the true evil that’s consuming the nation…..or maybe he’s down with the sham?

Half of this evil country stole an election, and the other half just stood back and watched it happen.
That's evil.
That's evil.

The United States Federal Government is extremely evil.

Heightened homosexuality and hedonism, gender blurring, self worship, complete abandonment of traditional social norms of right and wrong, and most damning...abandoning theology and the Creator himself. It’s going to get really bad. Prepare your soul. You only get one chance.

So you actually think these trends started with the November elections?
Wow.
BTW,I noticed you couldn't/wouldn't answer any of the questions I posed because you can't.Leftist never can.

Yes. We murder babies as a form of birth control, we turn from right and good to do what is wrong. Our culture does not value life, decency, virtue, or liberty. The value of work is gone in many minds, and slothfulness is rewarded by the state; as is promiscuity, and out of wedlock sex and child-bearing.
The further we turn from that which is righteous, the further we will see the degradation of this nation. We are an evil nation and we will pay for our transgressions.

It depends on who is in office. Perpetuating evil seems to be the catalyst that drives the current administration.

When I think of the USA these days, I think of the movie Gladiator.
- You had good people fighting for the sake of the dream and idea that was America.
- You have corrupt politicians that are twisting things back home while the good people are fighting.
- Even some of the speeches can be applied,
"There was once a dream that was Rome.
You could only whisper it.
Anything more than a whisper and it would vanish, it so fragile.
And I fear that it will not survive the winter."
"I will not believe that they fought and died for nothing.
Marcus Aurelius: And what would you believe?
Maximus: They fought for you and for Rome.
Marcus Aurelius: And what is Rome, Maximus?
Maximus: I've seen much of the rest of the world.
It is brutal and cruel and dark.
Rome is the light.
Marcus Aurelius: Yet you have never been there.
You have not seen what it has become."
- Look at when the corrupt take over and placate to the crowd and open the arena, the crowd eats up the violence as entertainment.

I'm not sure whether I would consider it an evil nation, but we certainly do have some evil people leading the country. I wonder whether the good within the country is enough to override that, but I lose a little more confidence that that is the case every day.
