Correct, both are bad. It’s just the pot calling the kettle black.
Thoughts intrusive, ass protrusive, trans inclusive.

I don’t know about you, but I think the Afghan invasion we pulled out of in 2021 is a current example.
How about the time our government tried to coup Bolivia in 2020? https://www.theguardian.com/commentisfree/2020/sep/18/silence-us-backed-coup-evo-morales-bolivia-american-states
And let’s not forget our current backing of Israel bombing civilians of the Gaza strip and Palestine, no matter who’s in charge of the oval office.
Yeah, only we can do that! Like we did, since the 20th century:
Not to mention:
That time we meddled with Ukraine’s elections The general plan to stop democratic elections in Latin America
The Banana Republics Where we got so off scot free, there’s a chain of stores named after it. It’s like if Iraq had a chain of stores called 9/11 Appeal. The Consistent and non-stop murdering of Filipinos who wanted freedom from Spain and America
And this isn’t even getting into pre-1990’s with Hawaii and the mass genocide of Native Americans, or the internal fucking with elections like COINTELPRO murdering Black Panthers and MLK, and the CIA secretly using network stations and the internet to spread propaganda.
But it’s good when we do it, so that makes it okay. Please don’t ask use to apologize or forgive debts. We can’t even keep a promise with any native american tribes, let alone foreign nations.
Also, please explain how you want people to question the government, but support that very same government banning ways to find info to question it?
Oh yeah a nation that spies on everything and arrests anyone who disagrees with Putin sure is gonna revolt.
Blaming a nation of people who are unable to change their government with voting or revolution doesn’t help them. It makes you look like someone who’d blame all Japanese in America for Pearl Harbor.
Their options are not express free thought to a nation that kills its state officials when they are done being useful, or be buried near those officials in an unmarked grave.
The same logic applies to Americans in 2004. Not every american agreed with the Iraq invasion, but I guess Bush did all Americans must be removed from the Great equalizer of the Internet.
If someone is unaware of piracy: Tell them.
If someone is aware of piracy and doesn’t care: “I don’t really know, I just got it off of a torrent site.”
If someone is aware of piracy and cares too much for a company they don’t work for: You can ignore them.
