You're not wrong, you're just being very picky about where you interject your view here. The context here was (until you changed it) American politics. You're deliberately changing the context so you can trash one side of American politics as equivalent to the other. And you do that a lot. We can all see.
What you're doing isn't clever, it's transparent. You're just interjecting "both sides" arguments everytime you encounter folks in support of Democrats. Your history is public, fyi.
I can also assure you the nation you're residing in today has skeletons in their closet too. Wanna test that theory? It is admittedly irrelevant to the topic of US politics, yes, but you're the one making the comparison and you're the one trying to tell people not to support Democrats because they're just as bad as the Republicans. Nevermind being terrible shitty logic, let's back up: are you even American? You talk as if you're not. That's telling us something in and of itself isn't it?
I'm happy to drag this out with you, you'll only expose yourself more.
How is war not part of American politics? Obviously I interject that liberals are in many aspects equivalent to and supportive of conservative and fascist policies, if people claim that one side is better than the other. If people around here were claiming Republicans to be the better choice, I'd point to their crimes instead. I know full well about my countries past and present crimes and transgressions. The difference between us is that I don't run around advocating for the liberals or the conservatives of my country and also there is the fact that my country isn't a massive empire escalating violence all over the world and dominating the global economy for their own benefit.
Again, your history doesn't show you doing that, ever. Even if it did, this isn't defensible. You're just a troll. This right here is why I'm recommending everyone reading block you. And why I'm blocking you myself. You're just a contrarian and that serves exactly one side and one side only. We know that hand over fist.
Now you know that, you can't pretend you've never been told. If you honestly think you're being genuine and not just a disingenuous shit, then I implore you: Go look in the mirror and question yourself a bit about this interaction.
Bye.
