    Honestly, we should rely on solid evidence. Exceptional claims require exceptional evidence.

      That’s the thing. They aren’t exceptional claims. Would you like a list of democratically elected governments that have been toppled by the US gov’t?

        Is it from the last fifty years? Because if it’s Venezuela, Nicaragua, etc thats all agreed on. If you’re going to refer to that, then I get to apply the same logic and find fault with every other country in the world–we don’t get to pick and choose who we like. It doesn’t work like that. This is still an extraordinary claim for an event that happened last year.

          Now you’re getting it, no country has clean hands, however America for sure has the bloodiest and most recent record of fuckery.

            “america had the bloodiest”- haha good one. North Korea, Russia, the Uyghuirs in China, and a couple dozen other countries would like a word. I love the selective outrage on this platform.

                Imagine selectively ignoring the rest of the context of my whole statement. Are you illiterate? Take the 61 famine alone which killed 30 million people thanks to mismanagement by Mao’s government. You guys are professionals at selective outrage.

                  30 million of his own people starving has nothing to do with illicit foreign affairs lol.

                    why are you pivoting to foreign affairs. The statement was about which countries has the most blood on their hands. You love word games, don’t you?

              Those are the kinds of countries that you’d like to be lumped in with? Telling.

                Nop. Those where three countries that came up right away at the top of my head with least effort. I’d like to know how you came to your categorical declaration that “America has the bloodiest”. Again, it’s selective outrage. You guys are professionals at picking and choosing.

                    More grandstanding. Provide an argument instead of patronizing with “go read more”.
