I don't care about internal US bullishit (we were talking about US wars) but even in that area you're wilfully ignorant McCarthyism, The deporter in chief, Guantanamo bay, Abu gharib (CIA black sites et al). You are clearly a very privileged person with a very loose grasp on history and reality.

While we're on the tipic. Please explain to me how the extermination campaign in Korea (dropping more bombs on half an already small peninsula than were dropped in the Pacific theatre of WW2 as a whole, 1 in 5 to 1 in 4 of the population killed, all major farms and structures turned to rubble leaving the survivors living in caves) is not equivalent or honestly worse than the more recent atrocities. Or how about Vietnam still dealing with the after affects of the rainbow agents (agent orange etc.). Or the US collection of pet failed states like Libya. How about putting pinochet or the shah (aka the butcher) in power alongside the rest of their pet fascists of the day.

You are an arrogant uninformed privileged ass who needs to read some books and get in touch with reality.

How about trying to actually answer the question posed instead of further projection?

you're either delusional or ridiculously uninformed.

in this case i don't care if trump does silly shit within your borders. the us has bombed countries back into the stone age for almost a century. and it's always either about gaining control of resources or for "strategic purposes".

apart from ww2 (in which they dropped a nuke on a country that was about to be defeated anyway) almost every war in the 20th and 21st century was just an unjustified massacre in places they had no reason to be in other than to swoop in and grab natural resources and plant a base. they haven't defended themselves once and all the justifications they had to enter a war were the consequences of their own acting.

i implore you to read more about the atrocities your country committed.

It doesn't matter whether i'm privileged or a victim of your murderous nation. the criticism would still be valid.

Wild conclusion that I'm ignorant of the rightward shift just because I said Bush doesn't sound like a lefty. Doesn't help your case that he never was one in the first place.

I'm trans, disabled, unemployed and from/in Latin America, you asshole. Having principles isn't a privilege, it's the bare minimum. If you believe we're less human than you and we can get killed so you get healthcare you suck. I'd sooner do precarious work that only puts me at risk than do that. There's no universe in which what you're saying makes sense. Grow up and stop making imperialist apologia.
