As a European (French), I'm offendd. My country can do its own terrorism too ! See, we can bomb weddings in Mali just as well as Americans do in Afghanistan! And did you even see the violent repression in Kanaky last year ? We're a terrorist state and I demand we be considered as such.

Greenpeace Bombing in New Zealand is also a fairly well known example.

the US and Israel are the actual terrorists, the people from the middle east are just fighting for their right to self-determination.

Yeah I thought terrorist bootlickers is referring to them sucking up to Trump.

I like how the meme actually disagrees with the US being terrorists.

  1. Condemning the US doesn't mean uncritically supporting the CCP.

  2. China didn't put my country in a brutal military dictatorship for 20 years.

What does this have to do with the post?

do your feelings get hurt when we even say the boot your chewing on is of a terrorist? do you cry on the ground when we kill your "heroic" troops? I fucking bet you see a dude wearing green in the supermarket and salute him and say thank you for your service.

China : Protectors of the Tibetans and Uygurs.

Yes but unironically, Tibet was theocratic hellhole with slavery and tortures, just the kind you libs say you hate but apparently you really love it when the Uncle Sam tells you to love it, Xinjiang had CIA-funded terror campaign from Al-Qaeda and ISIS affiliates (who also loves Israel) and it would be yet another wahhabist hellhole you libs also say you hate but apparently you really love it when the Uncle Sam tells you to love it.

Don't forget all the censorship. I wonder what these tankies will say once the US will be on par with China regarding censorship...
