  • Not really. I get you’re using hyperbole here, but this kind of attitude is dangerous.

    Scale matters. Every country is guilty of wronging its people. That doesn’t make all countries or all acts equal. If you can draw false equivalence between the US and Iran, then you can draw false equivalence between Norway and North Korea.

    The US hasn’t crushed protests like China and Iran. What the US has done is very bad, but that just makes what’s described here as horrific instead.

    I had to assume you were referencing the recent ICE killings. If you’re a Good Ol’ Boy still sore about being on the losing side of the Civil War, then I can see your point.
