Even if you take the most extreme interpretation of US responsibility possible (eg adding another 1-1.7 million people for "luring" the Soviet Union into attacking Afghanistan), you don't get to 25 million
I wonder how many of the emotive words, e.g. "murder", were being quoted from Israelis, rather than being the BBC's description of events
Why are they then not quoting Palestinians calling it a genocide, massacre and murder on headlines? You're being purposefully obtuse, and you're actually avoiding the word "genocide". Say it with me: Israel is committing genocide against Palestinians
"We’re writing to express our concerns over opaque editorial decisions and censorship at the BBC on the reporting of Israel/Palestine. We believe the refusal to broadcast the documentary ‘Gaza: Medics Under Fire’ is just one in a long line of agenda driven decisions. It demonstrates, once again, that the BBC is not reporting “without fear or favour” when it comes to Israel."
"[...]This didn’t happen by accident, rather by design. Much of the BBC’s coverage in this area is defined by anti-Palestinian racism"
"This conflict of interest highlights a double standard for BBC content makers who have themselves experienced censorship in the name of ‘impartiality’. In some instances staff have been accused of having an agenda because they have posted news articles critical of the Israeli government on their social media[...]"
Stop defending pro-genocide Zionist media. Or are you also a "moderatecentrist" regarding the genocide in Gaza?
No, we can move on about Russia (which you brought up yourself). Now: let's coup every country in the EU and North America for supporting the genocide of Palestinians and the economic sanctions murdering 500k people yearly?
And why does the EU sanction Venezuela and the DPRK and complies with sanctions against Cuba? Again you're avoiding talking about the 38 million murdered by US + EU sanctions since 1970
The EU sanctions Russia because we're US puppet states, but the sanctions are more harmful to other countries like Cuba, Venezuela or the DPRK, none of which has invaded any other country. The half a million deaths per year mostly come from such countries and not Russia (though I fail to see how it's morally good to prevent medical goods from entering Russia or anywhere in the world).
The US + EU kill half a million yearly through economic sanctions alone, much more than the mortality from the Ukraine war. Should we also destroy those countries?
I believe there is a lot of room for nuance when we start counting victims. To me, the Nazis are not functionally the same to Poland, even if Poland invaded Czechoslovakia together with them, because Poland didn't murder tens of millions of people. To me, the USA murdering tens of millions of people (38 million through economic sanctioning together with the EU since 1970, and 500k more every year) is absolutely horrifying and incomparable to anything else today except possibly the genocide in Gaza by Israel
I'm aware the US has seized ships, the act of war would be the invasion of the country, bombing of civilians, and kidnapping of the president
Bullshit. One single US (+EU) policy, economic sanctions, has murdered 38 million in the past 50 Years and keeps murdering 500k yearly. One single policy.
Why are they then not quoting Palestinians calling it a genocide, massacre and murder on headlines? You're being purposefully obtuse, and you're actually avoiding the word "genocide". Say it with me: Israel is committing genocide against Palestinians
Seizing of ships? My sibling in Christ Nicolás Maduro was kidnapped by the USA
BBC staff seems to think otherwise

I went to the few days after Oct 7th, hopefully it's not a stretch to assume that the word "massacre" isn't less sensationalist than "kidnap".
Cool, that's the directives, the workers haven't left. Nationalize all their possessions, bank accounts, and enjail everyone involved in the process.
I'm a literal communist advocating for the stop of militarization of the US. Your stupid made-up copy paste is useless
You should get banned for defending overt Zionist pro-genocide propaganda
But why sell it to other rich people at all? Just keep the business collectively
Literally yes, outlaw a company moving to another country
"Offended much, snowflake?" So 2015.
Well, it helps that China is not invading any sovereign country or arming and funding genocide in Palestine.

If you don't wanna be called American, don't talk like one

What part about what I said regarding Maduro, sanctions and elections are you disagreeing with?
