Just because Trump also breaks international law, doesn't make it better when Putin does it (and not the first time either). Yes, Russia Man Bad! 👍🏻 Orange Man Also Bad!

    Joe Biden supported and enabled the genocide in Gaza, and every president before him committed invasions and war crimes. The fact that you think it's just a Trump thing and not a US empire thing reveals your geopolitical understanding to be puddle-deep. Hell, Putin was our guy. We put him there.

    Both are bad and should be villified internationally and face repurcussions for their actions.

    So both should be villified for invading other countries, right?

    Let's send both Trump and Putin to the ICC in The Hague. How about that?

    I agree, but only one of those 2 countries has proclaimed (in law if im not mistaken, but i may be wrong) that they would intervene militarily to prevent one of their own from being tried by the ICC, regardless of the actual crimes they've committed. And im talking about sending special forces to extract said alleged criminal against humanity, from another sovereign nation, abiding by its own laws.

    Guess which of the 2 I'm talking about? Russia is by no means the good guy, but its not a binary issue, as most people on the internet seem to react when these 2 countries are mentioned in the same sentence. Russia being 'bad' doesn't automatically make the US 'good' and vice versa.

    Sure, who's worse shifts back and forth over the years, but to my eyes, currently, the US is worse, and its been that way for a long time. Way before trump. Anyone who thinks this all started when trump took office, is a bit deluded.

    But you're 100% right, send both of them to the ICC, in an ideal world.

    Is there a sane reason why a man at an airport would be wearing all these hats?
