Absolutely, the British empire was unfathomably evil, thanks in no small part to the incredibly open classism of the british aristocracy that never really evolved all that much over feudal times.

It’s really more the horrifying spectacle of it. In Vietnam people had access to rapid or sometimes even live TV news about what was happening in the war, and it changed public opinion drastically. Same with TikTok now. It’s hard to swallow any of Israel’s bullshit when you’ve seen footage of children screaming with bones sticking out of their mangled legs, crying near-skeletal because they can’t stand the unending pain of starving to death, plastic bags of 70kg of shredded meat each being counted as a person and whatnot.

I saw a comrade say it once and I’ve been repeating it ever since because I know that even if you checked the numbers they’d be fucking BAD. I know for a fact that it’s true for the last few decades because the deaths in Afghanistan, Iraq, Libya and so on are all attributable to the US. Going further back we’ve got the Korean War. Vietnam. We could also throw in Yemen? Syria. Iran?

It depends on what you want to attribute to them. But even being conservative the numbers aren’t gonna be good are they?

Someone could do the numbers if they want, I’ve never felt the need to, that number is horrific and definitely feels right.

It was from the Official Democratic Party platform

All of this [ed: prior 3 paragraphs all about bs Biden did against Iran] stands in sharp contrast to Trump’s fecklessness and weakness in the face of Iranian aggression during his presidency. In 2018, when Iranian-backed militias repeatedly attacked the U.S. consulate in Basra, Iraq Trump’s only response was to close our diplomatic facility. In June 2019, when Iran shot down a U.S. surveillance aircraft operating in international airspace above the Straits of Hormuz, Trump responded by tweet and then abruptly called off any actual retaliation, causing confusion and concern among his own national security team. In September 2019, when Iranian-backed groups threatened global energy markets by attacking Saudi oil infrastructure, Trump failed to respond against Iran or its proxies. In January 2020, when Iran, for the first and only time in its history, directly launched ballistic missiles against U.S. troops in western Iraq, Trump mocked the resulting Traumatic Brain Injuries suffered by dozens of American servicemembers as mere “headaches” – and again, took no action

they will simply use it as evidence of it becoming a narco-state and use it to intervine
