One thing that I’m getting tired of from both trumpers and tulsiers is this attitude that we “better stop antagonizing Russia.”
Um. Excuse me?
Russia imprisons members of the LGBT community, rigs elections, and kills journalists. They’ve worked to antagonize us throughout the Middle East and europe. They invaded an ally (Ukraine). And attacked us in 2016.
Maybe... just maybe... Russia should stop antagonizing us?
I’m getting tired of people making it sound like Putin is wonderful, Russia is misunderstood, and we’re the ones committing human rights abuses. Russia has been the world’s greatest antagonizer since the close of WWII. And no, it’s not comparable. American capitalism and democracy, while imperfect, isn’t near the scale of Soviet atrocities and now Russian crime. So I don’t want to hear people “both sides” this issue. As and as trump is, he’s a wannabe Putin. He hasn’t achieved Putin status yet
