    In the former instance there was an actual concerted effort to specifically murder people of a certain minority. In the latter there was a misguided attempt to squash an insurgency and build a new government at all costs. This is documented history and I can only assume you’ve been drooling on some communist furry subs for the past decade and just left adolescence. You can’t just change word’s definitions for your own childish deranged goals.

      The fucking nerve of you to invoke the idea of ‘documented history’ when you’re as ignorant as a fucking toddler about that very history is absolutely fucking infuriating. And for someone who puts so much goddamned effort into your affectation of intelligence you have absolutely no fucking critical thinking. The US, this hapless buffoon of a country. Accidentally murdering several million people over the course of three decades. Whoopsie! I deleted the only pharmaceutical factory in the region. D’oh! I bombed a baby food factory and all the civilian power and water infrastructure! How does this keep happening??

      And the fucking chauvinism. It’s genocide when our enemy uses chemical weapons during wartime in an area with a lot of insurgent fighting (compare us killing another several million people in Vietnam with our own chemical weapons for the exact same reasons except deliberately targeting their food supply but that’s not considered a genocide somehow). They killed about 3k people but they did it with animal bloodlust. But we’re good. We killed A THOUSAND TIMES THAT MANY PEOPLE but with good intentions. Promise.

      People like you are mathematical proof that the west needs to be fucking destroyed.

      You see the double standard you’re using here, right? Awful things done by natos geopolitical enemies are genocides, war crimes,… Yet when nato does it it’s at most a misguided atempt at doing the right thing?
