    No, they are saying one side being bad doesn’t make “the other side” perfect or immune to criticism

    The US participating in the Palestinian genicide does not excuse Russia invading Ukraine. The US invading Iraq does not excuse nationalists in India attacking Muslims

    It is not the same thing, and western imperialism doesnt make non-western imperialism ok. Even if it is a lot worse

      Right, and what I’m saying is that by that very same logic, Trump supporting the Palestinian genocide doesn’t justify the democrats supporting the Palestinian genocide - they should not be considered immune to criticism either, and when people criticize them, they should not be assumed to be supporting the other side.

        Right, so I was replying to you trying to make the meme into a " both sides bad" or “both sides are the same”-argument, pointing out how it is not

        I find your answer to my reply irrelevant to the point I was making

          It’s not saying that both sides are bad? You sure about that one, chief?

          What’s it saying about US imperialism? Good or bad?

          What’s it saying about countries the US opposes? Good or bad?
