      And Pol Pot got deposed by Vietnam after they kicked the US out. They really should get more credit…

      That’s another one. They killed a large chunk of their population, didn’t they?

      They literally only claimed to be communist for a few years out of their decades long rule. They had cia connections. The vietnamese communists overthrew them and installed a communist democracy. But sure, they’re communist /s.

          Only question is what the fuck was US doing murdering people half way across the world. I guess that’s the whole missionary mentality coming from enlightened Europeans where your tradition is to go around the world to kill and enslave people.

            My tradition? All those people are dead, and I’m pretty sure the Barbary pirates weren’t European but still took slaves, as did most of Asia.

            Judging historical events by today’s standards is fucking stupid.

            The CCP is literally enslaving and sterilising Uyghurs right now, cretin

              The only thing that’s fucking stupid here is pretending that the west isn’t practising colonialism today and that your standard of living isn’t subsidized by the people literally enslaved by western companies https://www.theguardian.com/global-development/2021/feb/12/mars-nestle-and-hershey-to-face-landmark-child-slavery-lawsuit-in-us

              Yeah you keep on peddling debunked conspiracy theories there since that’s all you’ve got to wok with. Weird how Uyghur population keeps growing. China can’t even get genocide right apparently. Should probably learn from the brits how to do it right.

                Yet more whataboutism, suprise

                Fuck off and learn something instead of spamming my inbox Tankard

                After becoming the Communist Party of China’s chief of Xinjiang Province in 2016, Chen Quanguo oversaw a security crackdown that led to a drop in births so sharp that it shocked the world. Some observers accused China’s leadership of committing genocide against the province’s mostly Muslim Uyghur population through forced sterilization and abortion.

                  Love how you trolls always reach for whataboutism. How dare you hold countries to the same moral standard you say as you adorably stomp your little feets. Meanwhile, here’s what an actual genocide looks like https://bylinetimes.com/2021/09/15/up-to-six-million-people-the-unrecorded-fatalities-of-the-war-on-terror/

                    Tankard, for the last time, two wrongs don’t make a right

                    In the west we are free to protest, in CCP land or Russia, you are not. End of discussion.
