You can use all the softpower you want, and i see no problem with this, but it's up to the majority of the people to decide what to do.
- refurb 5y agoSo if the country decides to exterminate a specific ethnic group you just try and use soft power and if that doesn’t work then oh well?
- Ar-Curunir 5y agoWould you make that argument for the US treatment of minorities historically? No? Why?
- refurb 5y agoYes I would. Would you?
- Cyph0n 5y agoThere is nothing preventing an autocracy from doing the same thing, right? In fact, history shows that autocracies are more prone to doing that. And who are we kidding here: the West is not against democracy in MENA because of some deep care for minorities or individual liberties. The West is against democracy because it’s more unpredictable and opens up the possibility that the people decide to take control of their resources. Feel free to believe otherwise if it makes you feel better, but it’s not the truth.
