I mean, this image is pretty much true. Describe the difference?
Aren't you one of the people who decried Russian interference in US politics?
If so, why are you, right now, doing exactly what you were made about Russia doing?
I'm certain there's more information out there than what the rest of us know.. I, for one, am not ready to make snap judgements.
@stux I wish I could argue against that statement.
@stux overwhelmingly agree but US did manage to do this without torturing civilians to death, looting their homes, and kidnapping their children (to the best of my knowledge). Also Ukraine's leadership was democratically elected, unlike Maduro. Doesn't make this in any way defensible but there are differences.

@aliide But when it comes to helping Ukraine he chooses Russia while invading another country
I understand but this is not the way
@stux I'm a bit puzzled - but I guess your reaction is in line with most people. Wasn't Maduro a fascist dictator whose opponent was awarded the Nobel peace prize? Is the issue the *mechanism* through which the US achieved his ouster (military force)?
1
@escarpment Yes but Trump uses it as a reason to invade a country
In comparisson to Russia and Ukraine where he seems to enable the war
This is never okay esp the way he did it

@stux Is the US invading with the intent to occupy and administer the country? Or was this merely the military force necessary to "safely" oust Maduro with minimal US / Venezuelan casualties

@stux Shoe on the other foot, if the US had the military might to "safely" oust Putin, would you approve or oppose?
@stux at this point? It has always been as bad or even worse. How many US-sponsored coup d'etat have ever been?
@EUCommission The time has come
We need to sanction / break ties with the US
Stand up against the dictator

@stux @EUCommission Make sure you can provide your own services within the EU first and migrate to them. Issuing sanctions against the US will require all US-based companies to no longer be able to do business with you and put companies not in either the US or EU between a rock and a hard place
@stux @EUCommission It’s pretty obvious that Trump and Putin decided to split the cake between them and it’s even more obvious that the EU will react too late (it’s not like they’ve been interfering with member states’ politics and doing some sabotage lately).
