[flagged]
I live in a country where one of the insurrectionists wrote a famous book while in prison, then became leader on a platform that explicitly stated democrats were bad, cancelled elections when gaining power, and ended up shooting himself when the soviet army rolled in.
'Cause it was Soviet tanks that rolled though these streets, not the American, British, or French ones.
Soviet war memorials aplenty around here, despite all the other evils that passed since then.
Soviet puppets here got kicked out in turn back in 1989, and not obviously due to any help from the Western side of the Iron Curtain.
My commute takes me across the old line of the Soviet attempt at enforced isolation.
When I was a kid, I wanted what you now hope for; sadly, experience taught me I can't be everyone's friend, that some will hate me no matter what while others are simply mutually exclusive.
If the US becomes friends with Russia as it is today, it can't be friends with half a dozen east europen countries; friendship with PRC precludes friendship with ROC; with Israel excludes Iran; with North Korea precludes South Korea, etc.
I don't want to be friends. Just friendly. Only friends with American interests
So it's odd that every time I read a (fairly rare) bait comment, it has the same username: yours.
To be clear I don't generally track or pay attention to user names, you just seem to be making a clear and persistent effort to kick off arguments in bad faith.
