something in our region matters more
Aka “fuck you, got mine”
Regional? When was the last time Americans were made to care about Haiti?
Well they did plan to send tanks there recently
I don’t even think most people know anything about that. There were just a few articles calling the protest leader a murderous gang leader and a couple of tweets from politicians in support of the Haitian puppet gov’s repression. I didn’t hear any of my lib friends or family talking about it.
The Monroe Doctrine, the US wagged their fingers at the European colonialist powers and removed all of the European puppet governments… before promptly replacing them with puppet governments controlled by the US.
All I heard about that in school was “the Monroe doctrine was when the US stood up against the colonial Europeans for self determination”
Yeah, that is utter bs. The US used it as justification to claim some colonies they wanted such as Puerto Rico, Mexico, and Cuba from weaker imperial powers like Spain and Germany, but simultaneously let their allies such as the UK, keep all their North and South American colonies.
or the wholesome genocide against Cubans
Our own white regions*
our own regions matter more.
Last time I checked, as someone in Canada, Ukraine is not my region. Never been there, didn’t even know the capital until this whole shebang. It’s Kyiv, right?
No, it’s Kyyyyıïyvь. If you don’t write it and pronounce it that way I will report you to HUAC.
“it’s kyiv not kiev!!”
I think so, I was blanking on it before.
