The West appears blind to its own hypocrisy and narrow interests in calling for a rules-based order.

    Because the West is hypocritical and selfish. You can’t seriously expect the world to support you against Russia when you just spent 20 years on a murder spree in the Middle East.

    What it’s really baffling is actually how the majority of westerners aren’t seeing this NATO/US - Russia with the same scope as the non-western countries, since this time is as obvious as the “Iraq has Weapons of Mass Destruction” thing in 2003.

    Guys, I know indoctrination is a hell of a drug, but damn, this has reached cult levels already.

        “bubububububut I am not racist! I have a friend of a friend who is POC!” or something like that.

    Countless dead Vietnam, Iraq, Afganistan, Libya, Syria…

    Many in Cuba impoverished by an unjust embargo…

    Do we need more examples? The West is extremely hypocritical.

      Doesn’t make the war with Ukraine any better.

          Soldiers of Russia enter Ukraine and kill Ukrainian soliders. How would you call it if not war?

              I think I simply don’t share your view that it takes violence/terror against civilians for a conflict to be labeled a war (at least that’s what your previous comment seems to imply, you may correct me at any time).

              I doubt you are incapable, so I will just call it intellectual dishonesty.

              Thanks, very nice from you, comrade :D

          “It’s just an exercise”

          “It’s just a special military operation”
