      The neighbor would just be missing from the Americans.

      The Israeli family’s neighbor’s yard would be on fire right?

      By recent events are you referring to events following the Russian backed fascist takeover of the US government?

        Gonna blame Trump and Maga on Russia now? Own up to the fact that at least half the USAians are assholes.

          I’m responding to Russian whataboutism deflecting criticism towards actions that Russia also had a hand in. Russia didn’t create MAGA, but they sure as hell helped fund it. That’s relevant.

          That’s a both situation. Trump and MAGA have known and heavily suspected long standing connections to Russia. And it’s well known that the US is full of selfish spoiled pricks.

          Did I say it absolves us? No, I’m pretty sure I didn’t.

          Reply: US just did some bad shit too!

          Me: Russia contributed to that as well!

          The topic of the post is Russia. I said nothing to implicate or excuse the US.
