Ok my 2 cents. Socialism, or any left wing politics that has been enacted in the past 3000 years has always ended in a tyranical regeim that lasts longer than the "free" legt wing ideals. Back to the title, who else but the US is in a position to defend freedom and liberty? Not europe, they will be islamic by the end of the century simply due to birth rates prior to 2010, with all the new "refugees" that will only speed up the conversion. Not China, its illegal to talk about Tenamin Square. Smurf in Russia, yes probably not. Germany? 800,000 islamic male refugees ready to be an army. The middle east? Once they are out of oil watch out. Africa, too much corruption and tribal thinking still to ever unify for strength. Right now the best hope for the planet is the US. Or colonizing Mars and getting off this rock.
America! Fuck yeah coming to save the muthafuckin day ! That's it I've figured it out ! You are in reality a Team America puppet !
Geez! Lose one war to an inferior equipped army and some dudes in black pajamas and no one let's you forget it !!!
"'Murica—land of freedom. Freedom to censor those—or spew our conflicting beliefs into faces of those—who don't agree with our views." Too many people don't even understand the freedoms outlined in the constitution, or why the freedoms had to be defined. lol
We are not and we never really were. Sure the U.S has done things to promoted democracy. But we also were allies of the brutal governments in Central America during their civil wars . Because the rebels were communist. But these governments weren't true democracies either. Saddam Hussain was out friend when he was at war with Iran. Despite the fact he massacred thousands of his own citizens. We looked the other way with Pinochet because he kept communists out of his country . But he also killed thousands of leftists and anyone else he thought was a threat. The U.S will protect it's own interests above all else. And I don't think there is anything wrong with that . But that ' Best hope for freedom around world stuff is bullshit. We are selling weapons to Saudi Arabia despite their lack of rights for some and high civilian death rate in Yemen. He sell weapons to other countries with spotty human rights records as well. Politics especially global politics make strange bedfellows indeed.
This thread is about America's position in the world, not fabricated domestic affairs. Are you drunk?
Are you ever going to say anything meaningful of your own, instead of dumping memes and URL's to YouTube?
Aww ! The white nationalist/ terrorist supporter is probably so sad he can't respond to this with ten pages of bullshit and insults. Poor thing
Yes. Fuck yes. USA is the poster child for freedom and democracy. Should USA be policing the world is another topic. USA is the role model for the world.
An outsider perspective, it never was and is not going to be. Never was as - as all instances that the US took a stand was when they had something personal at stake. Not for the local populace or to assuage anyone's pain. All were for a personal gain, that too not of America but of some lobby. Never will be - as all world currently sees (even as many stating above) is Red Vs Blue. If citizens are blind towards a) what is good for them, b) what's good for country and c) what is good for that world. How, can it ever be any hope.
