Nothing matters aside from just money and the monkey sphere of one to some people
- selimthegrim 3y agoI’m sure a lot of people didn’t give a shit about Bangladesh in 1971 either.
- rayiner 3y agoI mean that’s my motivating example. Imagine if Russia had tried to help Bangladesh break free of Pakistan instead of India. I’m sure the US would have intervened and made up some shit about protecting the territorial integrity of an “ally.”
- selimthegrim 3y agoMy understanding is the USSR did make some noises when the US sent an aircraft carrier that direction
- rayiner 3y agoI think the impulse that made the US do that is the same impulse at play in Ukraine. Notwithstanding the difference about whether it’s supporting or opposing independence (the US takes either side in a variety of conflicts), it’s really about a proxy war against Russia/the USSR.
