      Would be more fallacious if they weren’t actually lynching black people tbh

      I like that liberals have decided that criticizing the USA is inherently fallacious.

          Ok, I wouldn’t expect you to be honest about it anyway.

        Of course, “one without sin among you should be the first to throw a stone”, I’m not a fan of US but also not a fan of PRC

          Equal condemnation for unequal things just ends up being support for the status quo, though.

            Yeah not literally, I didn’t mean to praise the US in any way, I’m just recalling a historical example of one not-so-ideal country criticizing another not-so-ideal country Also

            Not that I’m suggesting they’re wrong

            Part might be key to understand what I meant
