I'm scared of freedom and American hegemony protecting the world and I have no understanding of economics

Conservatives for you lol

American hegemony protecting the world is the funniest / saddest joke I've read so far in my life, maybe read The Shock Doctrine or The Mafia Allies, or anything about south America/Allende, or anything coming out of wikileaks about the civilians killed in Iraq/Afghanistan or anything that your friends from Saudi Arabia have done in Yemen or what is going on in Palestine from your friends.. Like you can't make that up, but yeah good job world protector

Also I am not from US nor conservative, so I don't really have to lie or hide or distort facts to defend my democrat party overlords

Might wanna give "Pax Americana" a Google.

So you get to kill brownies/blacks around the world, but it’s fine as long as the white ones are at peace?

I am responsible for what I mean, not what you understand, I think my message was the exact opposite, mean to aim for the world peace of everyone, everywhere, not to consider a good job having peace just for a fraction of the population of the world

If you love the global poor, you love neoliberalism and the pax Americana.

If you don't, I guess be a commie or whatever
