Sorry bud, it’s hard to understand what you’re saying with Jinping’s cock all up in your mouth like that

Neither of us live in China, and they had nothing to do with the atrocities the US facilitated under Carter (which admittedly, is less than any other recent president), why are you bringing them up?

He did good things after the presidency, but acknowledging that Israel is an apartheid state fails to make up for excluding Palestine from the Camp David accords.

Because that’s where your half-baked talking points are coming from, comrade.

Is it really inconceivable that someone could organically not like genocide?

Any American who acknowledges that every president for the last century has done things we hanged Nazis for at Nuremberg must have been tricked by outside forces?

No, that part’s not inconceivable. The inconceivable part is that you claim to not like it while also defending the undisputed kings of it. Mao makes Hitler look like a fucking amateur lol

lmao what? Life expectancy nearly doubled since the communists took over, and now they're similar to OECD nations.

But also the audacity of calling China "the kings of genocide", while the whole world watches in horror while we facilitate a genocide in Palestine and beat the living shit out of anyone who protests it.

Every accusation a confession.
