Even if you take the most extreme interpretation of US responsibility possible (eg adding another 1-1.7 million people for “luring” the Soviet Union into attacking Afghanistan), you don’t get to 25 million

Bullshit. One single US (+EU) policy, economic sanctions, has murdered 38 million in the past 50 Years and keeps murdering 500k yearly. One single policy.

Hey Cowbee, I see you often here, commenting on the election results. This will be ignored by liberals because they’re too far into propaganda, so instead I made a little copypaste explaining why there cannot be free and fair elections in Venezuela. Feel free to use any or all of it:

Maduro is not an illegitimate leader. The Bolivarian revolution was widely supported among the people of Venezuela and freed millions from poverty, until USA sanctions demolished their economy. The express purpose of USA sanctioning, according to the US government is to, and I quote, “bring about hunger, desperation and overthrow of government”. USA+EU sanctions additionally murder half a million innocents per year according to recent serious sociologic and medical studies.

By defending regime change under extreme economic sanctioning, you’re approving the murders of 38 million people over the past 50 years of economic sanctions, and directly supporting the CIA strategy of “impoverish them until they change their minds”.

Maduro being a figurehead isn’t a problem, it’s a good thing. The alternative would be the destabilization of Venezuela and the coup by a Milei-like libertarian who would give every inch of Venezuelan soil to US corpos and destroy worker rights.

No, the main factor is how strong your state propaganda is against him.

Long live Maduro and the Bolivarian revolution, death to America

What country did Maduro invade to be as bad as Putin or Trump?

USians don’t need to pay for tax increases to pay for public healthcare, USians already pay exceedingly expensive healthcare. Government expenditure doesn’t come from taxes, the federal reserve can literally create money at will at a keystroke. Expropriation of the existing hospitals and clinics by the state would already make healthcare much cheaper than it is, because right now the wealth is siphoned off to rich people and corporations.

The issue is that democrats would rather lose elections than make healthcare affordable. It’s not bad strategy, it’s the logical consequence of their interests

Surely then you reject Britain belonging to NATO and advocate for an antimilitaristic stance and the reduction of military budgets?

I measure a movement by its achievements, not by its arrested

No, kinda the opposite. I hate neoliberalism, neocolonialism, Eurocentrism and American exceptionalism, but I love the people and want them to enjoy their lives without unemployment, without houselessnes, without food insecurity, without exploitation and without wars

Anti Western propaganda? Yes. Russian-backed? Unfortunately no, I wish I got paid for this

Care to explain what you mean?

For reference (I’m a Spaniard so maybe this isn’t representative): by far the most famous explicitly leftist band of the past 10 years is La Raíz, and one of their most famous songs, “Jilgueros”, on the lyrics explicitly talks about “que apunte al cielo quien quiera ser cazador de buitres”, (point up to the sky whoever wants to be a hunter of vultures, vultures being capitalist owners and a reference to the so-called “Fondos Buitre” or Vulture Investment Funds in Spain).

The Luigi thing is an example, but you obviously will accept that “Eat the Rich” is a very popular sentiment among western progressives and support for AES is not

It might be my biased sample from the people I interact with IRL (I live in Spain) and on the internet, but out of all self-declared leftists and progressives, a vast majority support Luigi and use slogans like “eat the rich” while repelling any repression from Actually Existing Socialist states.

Why wouldn’t you enter a Chinese car?

China has massively boosted the living conditions of workers since the 1980s-1990s. The accusations of sweatshops 40 years ago made sense, but in 2025 they’re absurd, especially seeing the vast improvement in life quality in China compared to other countries which 100 years ago were in an identical condition, such as India or Bangladesh.

Hey, cool that you’re questioning it tbh, thanks for considering the possibility that western mass media lies about the “Uyghur genocide” in opposite to how they lie about the Palestinian genocide

Hey, this ragebait took me quite a while to make, not that low effort. Did you see how I even tilted the text?

You should learn to spell “Uyghur” before trying to do your concern trolling.

You are capable of disliking both real genocides (Gaza) and western manufactured genocide disinformation (Xinjiang)?

While that’s part of it, you can also see plenty of hate towards landlords in western countries, because people are suffering the consequences of landlordism (when it comes to housing). The main problems IMO are Eurocentrism and American Exceptionalism.
