    (my bold)

    No, and that’s a strawman. But the Americans who are sitting back going “well I voted for Kamala, it’s not MY problem” are bad. And that’s all I said.

    what you said:

    Yeah - until I see George W Bush hanging in The Hague, Americans should probably shut the fuck up about their advice to other countries on how to deal with war criminals.

    The rest of your nonsense is the same strawman.

    Perhaps in other words, you can’t be bothered trying to refute what I posted.

    Who murdered more Ukrainians? Hitler or Stalin?

    Hitler.

    You’re probably right.

    wp:Holodomor

    Around 3.5 to 5 million in Ukraine; see death toll

    wp:World War II casualties of the Soviet Union#Estimated losses by Soviet republic

    6,850,000

    So I guess neither the Germans in the 1940s were in any position to criticize the Soviets over Holodomor, nor the Russians in the 1930s were in any position to criticize Ukraine.

      Meh, you want to dive into the Holodomor - there were even larger amounts of famine deaths in other SSRs, so depends what you’re calling “murdered”. Whereas the Nazi extermination campaign in Ukraine was purposeful murder.

      you can’t be bothered trying to refute what I posted

      That you equate different things and therefore decide that you magically are in the right?

      Wow, amazing that.

      Meanwhile your war criminals are running around free. Donald Rumsfeld died in his bed, Georgie is painting soldiers. How many dead from their war?

      So I guess

      Yes, I think you spend lots of time doing that.
