Also, nobody here is claiming that america is good. We’re literally here to discuss how drastically things in the US need to change.
The comment you’re replying to was calling out the hypocrisy of someone trying to detract from the protests going on. Denying the authoritarianism of one country doesn’t help oppose authoritarianism in another. Two mutually antagonistic governments can be authoritarians at the same time, and it’s perfectly valid to criticize both.
So your long list of facts, while they would be relevant as a top-level comment had you framed them as “reasons why we’re protesting,” are really just a thinly-veiled red herring that you’re attempting to use to defend someone who’s attempting to derail conversation about the protest movement.
I focus on the devil I know… I mean the left is still on its knees and is yet to learn how to walk. Shorthand: Get your house in order. … israel is commiting a genocide but chynah so mean. 🙁💧 I am so ready to go to CHINA
