@gemlog@tilde.zone Kissinger on the other hand was a total disappointment spouting that Cold War era nonesense just last year, how the West should promise Puting there'd be no NATO at Russia's border. Wake up, old man, it's 2020s out there, there is no Soviet Union anymore and while Putin might have used that nonesense as a pretext, he doesn't give a flying fuck about NATO, all he wants is to stay in power. What a disgrace!
@publius

@gemlog@tilde.zone He's an asshole alrite! But he did have a bright mind, he did what was in US interests even if that involve supporting total assholes all around the world, and he stayed in his right mind till his very death. His words about Russia's actions in Ukraine in 2014 were spot on:

@neural_meduza Когда обзор от Батикова?

@gemlog@tilde.zone
There are a bunch of counterexamples, Afghanistan being the most recent one. USSR and US made a mess that will turn into a major international clusterfuck pretty soon, then US is like: "Oops, I'm outta here!", again betraying their allies and leaving people behind and what's left of USSR now commits to trade agreements with Taliban, while still considering them terrorists — you can't mention Taliban in Russian press without noting they are a terrorist organisation. What?! Yes!

Exactly! People grow up thinking things are black and white, but… they never are 😔
> benevolent world policeman
Not at all! Just like regular cops (you know, I LOVE boys in blue 😆) most of the time they do outrageous shit, but sometimes they do solve problems. And these are a couple of examples of US actions that are often badged as pure evil, while… they are not!
@publius

@gemlog@tilde.zone Sorry for using my other account to reply, I just didn't want to split it into five parts 😄

@gemlog@tilde.zone US is of course evil and opportunistic, betraying their ally like that is a good example, but it doesn't make Maduro the good guy. And he's not bad by association only either.
@Maya @publius

@gemlog@tilde.zone Most are already poor and do not benefit from oil in any way — Maduro and his close associates do! Their life would probably improves as sanctions get lifted.
Unfortunately Maduro falls in favour again as the gap that appeared on oil market after 🇷🇺 was sanctioned has to be filled somehow. Guaidó's name has already disappeared from all the sanction papers. Had the cunning plan to remove Maduro existed, the US would have never done that.
@Maya @publius

@gemlog@tilde.zone
True! But I still have your last post bookmarked, I just fail to get in the right mood to write a proper reply 😅
> causing suffering of the people of venezuela by sanctions dictated by the usa
That of course I agree with! But I mean even if US came in guns blazing and removed Maduro from his position, would it be worse for people of Venezuela? What would US do, make them live on minimal wage, pump out all the oil? They are already living like that 😂
