"Oh that was long ago they no longer do that. Well yeah, they've never apologized for the things they did, no one has ever faced any kind of justice, and the same people who did the thing last time are still in power. True, there are claims that they're doing the same thing right now, but those are just conspiracies, I said they've changed already!"

The US did lie about Nelson Mandela being a bloodthirsty terrorist who would immediately genocide all the white people, but not about Hamas. Why don't you condemn terrorists?

The state department did lie about Libya's threat and was involved in the horrible dismantling of their state in favor of jihadi warlords, but not in Syria, why are you linking non credible journalists? No I will not check the leaked documents.

The CIA WAS confirmed to have instigated hundreds of coups as recently as the 2010s, but not in Ukraine. You'd have to be a bot to believe such nonsense.

The US did lie about Cuba being a brutal totalitarian baby murdering state, and did downplay how horribly exploitative and violent they were in their imperialism before the revolution, but you have to believe North Korean defectors, it's not like they're being bribed to say the biggest lie they can. Btw they had the Korean genuhhhhhh... War coming, they did invade the south of their own country and that's the part the US wanted.
