Like war is bad, but only Russia is sanctioned?
People could also acknowledge that the US organise regime changes and that the genocide is part of a hybrid war which shifts some responsibility onto the US.
What? I agree that war is bad no matter who does it, but I don’t understand the relevance?
I’m also not forgiving the US of its sins. I don’t plan on elevating any country or sovereignty or government above my own ethics.
We don’t expect people who argue in favor of the US to take responsibility for the genocide and to give back the land. The genocide argument can only be used by one side to shut down a debate.
Oh. Yeah. On the one hand I think it’s really cowardly for North Americans to refuse to be introspective about their country’s history. On the other hand I know how absolutely frightening it is to be that introspective and deliberately shake the scaffolding you’ve built your identity on. Doesn’t change the facts of, or excuse, or ameliorate what American colonists and their descendents did to Natives and Africans. Not to mention all the crimes for Cold War intervention.
