Gotta love “The Democratic Republic of Korea”

a million dead Iraqis

Didn’t the US stop doing this 20 years ago?
Besides, it’s still better than Iran, and Russia. Fewer dead. Less economic strife, much much less injustice.
USA spreading freedom and democracy by couping various democratic countries and replacing the democratically elected leaders with fascists and warlords
the irony of a moderator violating their own rules

Some of the most successful fascist propaganda ever that.
“WOLLT IHR DEN TOTALEN KRIEG? … Hey, not like that! Not fair!”
