      Replace “America” with “voluntary coalition of countries and individuals who promote freedom and justice

      I would really wish to replace the US Empire and their wardog vassals with what you wrote.

      “voluntary coalition of countries and individuals who promote freedom and justice and wish to build and maintain a world of international laws and norms”

      This propaganda was obviously always bullshit, but it was killed for good in the ruins of Gaza: anyone still spouting it is either knowingly lying or 12

      The US has never promoted freedom or justice for anyone that wasn’t rich, and participation in our empire’s agenda has never been voluntary

      Rule 1 is “be civil and and nice”. boggles

      It is an instance and community’s right to censor and ban as they wish, but rule 1 should perhaps be changed to “I don’t like the cut of your jib” 🙈

      While I was trying to make a particular point in the original response, I should have still rebuffed the core lie in it (the suggestion that russia is a victim): Russia attacked first, and it has escalated first, and it can stop the war at any time. All responses to russia’s aggression are expected and justified.
