90% of The World Doesn't Back Us Right Now
yewtu.be
Ninety percent of the world doesn’t support NATO’s proxy war in Ukraine but you wouldn’t know that from consuming corporate media narratives. Lee Camp brings the facts on this under-reported story.

U.S. has had 251 military interventions since 1991!?!..

      Did this guy really getbanned for arguing? Grow a fucking spine and cope. Banning for something like this is extremely childish. Apparently arguing a point means you’re ‘fighting’ with other users. Really disappointing mod action.

        User got 3 days for “getting into fights with many users” global modlog/community modlog

        They did have a couple of deleted comments that were correctly hit for rule 2 (although it’s still inconsistent moderation, seeing how worthless insults like this stay up) but being banned for arguing with many people? That’s beyond reasonable. This is a political thread, a bunch of users disagreed with a poorly-made but legitimate critique, and the person gets banned for replying to many of them?

        Might as well say ‘this is an echo-chamber, controversial opinions are banned’. I agree, very disappointing, and not based in the site or community rules.

      It’s a bit disappointing to ask “where did they get the percentage?” before immediately giving some uncited ones of your own: “individual nations, majority of them supports Ukraine (and US/EU etc)” and using an article from a conservative ‘think tank’ (wiki link) when complaining about propaganda.

      Its similar to The Daily Show, just unredacted, so of course its entertainment. Yet the data is sourced from The Wall Street Journal, The US Congress and The U.N., not to mention the U.S. fell 25% below its recruitment goal this year, which is more than 18%.

      Nonetheless, all the title is simply referencing is the fact of all the developed countries, 90% are not willing to help whatsoever in Ukraine. Did you watch the 6 min video? US is also now ranked between Cuba and Buliva by the UN, both of which are widely known as developing countries.

      I get Russia over stepped bounds but there’s a logical way to approach disputes and for us to handle it similar to the other 250 military actions since 1991, I’d have hoped we’d at least learned something. At least spending the money on helping at home would provide benefits we can see vs messing up the planet and innocent folk world wide over the last 30 years.
