Casually forgetting the U.S. does substantially worse and for centuries, with no sign of it ending, and even encourages it.

I'm American from Hawaii.

The United States kills far more people yearly while still perpetuating genocide on Native Americans, Native Hawaiians, and Palestinians.

This needs to stop.

No, no, and they voted for hamas that dragged them into yet another war they were destined to lose.

In the election they voted Hama into office, and following oct 7th, the majority supported their actions. So yes, they voted for their current leaders who dragged them into yet another way they could never have hoped to win.

You probably would vote for the local armed resistance (yes, they're designated terrorists) too if you lived in Gaza.

When did I say any of that? When did I excuse any of that?

Please point to the part in my comment where I said these words that you just put into my mouth and claimed I said.

I don't excuse any countries shitty behaviour.

Whataboutism. Look it up.

America has done it for centuries? China has done it for millennia and the US isn't even 3 centuries old
