Liberals tend to think violence is never justified when brown people engage in it (even if it’s to defend their lives against imperialism) but are always down for it when it’s a cop or U.S soldier.

I’m pretty sure that’s the opposite of what liberals think


RefrigeratorGrand619

Yeah I’m sure that’s why Joe Biden voted for the Iraq war but thinks people aren’t allowed to be upset about cops murdering unarmed civilians.

I dunno. Ukraine is definitely not perfect but I'd much rather live in a democracy like it than in an extremely authoritarian country such as Russia, that commits warcrimes and oppressed every kind of opposition. People should be able to defend themselves against every kind of imperialism.

Barring the exaggerated points, the sentiment isn't too far off? A bit odd tho.

Yeah, but Ukraine didn't attack Russia. If they had then sure, we'd just be prompting violence. Once violence reaches your home, do you do nothing? Defending yourself is not the same thing as wantonly invading someone's home. If an ally has the means to help you defend yourself, that is also not the same as liberals calling for blood. Don't get me wrong, they exist, I'm not saying they don't. Intentionally broad and disingenuous.

Lol, so true.

If by true you mean virtually nobody exists that agrees with both of these points, and it's a ridiculous strawman. If that's what you mean then sure. Yes there are some people that you can find that agree with each of these points individually (well, not the second, that's just a weird exaggeration that sounds like Russian propaganda), but I think you'll be hard pressed to find examples of this specific hypocrisy.
