minus-squareCowbee [he/they]linkfedilink5•4 months agoBit of a non-sequitor, I could bring up Kent State and use that to say the US isn’t a democracy. The US has a far worse track record than the Soviets.
minus-square@[email protected]linkfedilink2•4 months agoSoviets have civil war with 6 million losses in their track record lol. I’d like to see what USA has to compete with that.
minus-squareCowbee [he/they]linkfedilink5•4 months agoNumerous mass killings and/or genocides in Vietnam, Korea, Iraq, Afghanistan, Guatemala, East Timor, Cambodia, and much, much more.
minus-square@[email protected]linkfedilink2•4 months agoI thought we were talking about US/USSR killing their own civilians… And wtf with Cambodia? It was communists who killed 3 million ppl there
minus-squareCowbee [he/they]linkfedilink5•4 months agoCan’t really call a civil war against Tsarists and fascists “killing their own civilians.” Moreover, the US bombed Cambodia more than any other country on the planet. Pol Pot wasn’t a Communist, but he was stopped by the Vietnamese Communists.
