    Libya went from the country with Africa’s highest HDI to a failed state with open air slave markets thanks to NATO imperial bombing. Go tell them it’s bullshit.

      Alright, so if I agree that that was really bad, will you agree to the fact that Russia is waging offensive war against Ukraine?

        You don’t agree that’s bad though, as evidenced by the fact you’re defending NATO, while also trying to whataboutism to something nobody mentioned

          My first comment here was inspired by the russians attacking an EU country directly. No whataboutism, and I do not like NATO, and am angry at Russia right now.

        Hold on, I want to see if you recognize the implications of what you just agreed to. You agree that NATO annihilated a prosperous society, yet you still believe what they say about the other countries they want to go to war with? Why? It’s not like they were honest about Libya.
