    Most eurolibs would happily allow European imperialism and justify it by arguing if they didn’t do it someone else would

      Is this “European imperialism” in the room with us right now?

        No but its in northern Africa and the Middle East, I have been to Palestine personally. Those starving children don’t care that a couple of EU members have strongly worded statements when the weapons flow freely.

        I don’t care what eurolibs have to say, their actions speak significantly louder

            We are white and they ignored us too. It’s not about races. It’s a random fact if you are black or tanned-skin. Basically, North of Mexico and South of the continent are full of white persons.

            Colonialism doesn’t respect humans (no one).

            Of course the very statement “in the room with us right now” clearly states the intent, that’s somewhere else to people of a different skin color so clearly it doesn’t matter. The average eurolib has no sympathy to the starving and oppressed of the global south.

            In the past the eurolib argued that they were “civilizing” them with Christianity, that has not changed yet the justifications have (now its “women’s rights”, “democracy”, and “human rights”)

              Yep, they love to just change the meanings of those words to suit themselves.

              I would love for them to have more equality and protections for minorities of all kinds, but just enforcing that from our country or any other country is using political manipulation for a vague gain. If the shoe was on the other foot, they’d scream about election interference.

                Well I would also love that too but butchering women wont make them more free, bombing hospitals doesn’t increase the sanctity of human life, burning children alive with Incendiary weapons wont teach them to love the west, installing dictators wont make them more democratic, and funding brutal civil wars doesn’t make minorities safer.

                Eurolibs will insist only Americans did this but the records don’t lie, the EU was a participant and Eurolibs supported it

        Oh yeah and we know they totally stopped after WW2, yup no neocolonialism or backing foreign military occupations. Just look at how Europe is treating the Palestinian occupation, they sent them unlimited weapons very strongly as an act of condemnation. Look their feelings are hurt and that’s close enough to real action.
