    If you’re gonna start “defending freedom and democracy” the way the US does it, I’ll ask to please keep that shit to yourselves this time around.

      Oh absolutely, I don’t mean in the way they invaded other countries for ‘democracy’ but rather in the way they acted as a shield for europe etc against Ussr/russia

        See, that’s the problem, last time they acted as a shield against the USSR, here they organized a coup against a democratically elected president, and funded the following dictatorship for 20 years or so. And honestly that was nothing compared to what they did in, say, Cambodia and Vietnam (France, I’m looking at you too).

        But tbh it’s not like I expect them to stop doing this kinda shit once the hegemony is shattered, so I’m rambling for nothing

          Fair enough. May I ask where here is? I guess what I’m saying is that europe has to defend their own freedom now. American Democracy was outdated anyway. And I agree, I don’t see an authoritarian USA being less imperialistic than they have been until now. I suppose it’s a good thing we won’t be helping them with it anymore
