This is pretty rich coming from a guy who unironically defends Stalin and Mao for "doing what needed to be done."
Edit - I mean there you have it. If I explain the meme I'll get banned but I think any reasonable person can appreciate the whiplash.
What, defeating the Nazis? Breaking free from Emperors, Western imperialism, and Japanese imperialism? I’d say those needed to be done, yes.
Stalin and Mao liberated hundreds of millions of people, provided them with food, healthcare, education, and jobs. Imagine comparing that to a senile manager of the empire doing a genocide. What is wrong with you?
Meh, you and I both know that we cannot have an honest discussion of Mao or Stalin's flaws on this instance, the same way we can have an honest discussion of Biden's.
We both know that you refuse to accept reality. Facts aren't on your side though https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/25495509/
And Israel is the most advanced nation in the Levant, I guess.
That certainly does sound like something you would think unironically.
