US Politics on Sidechat | Im a leftist who hates trump but the hypocrisy on my side (and both sides for different reasons) is ridiculous. How are we going to call trump a dictator, but when he captures an actual one, we immediately go and defend the real dictator? Ridiculous.

We aren’t defending Maduro by any means. He is very much a problem, but the way Trump went about this wasn’t right. THATS what we are complaining about. And it’s clear the US is only interested because of oil and not to actually liberate the people of Venezuela

Well now americas just gonna “democratically” replace him with someone with Americas best interest in mind and that didn’t work out very well for Iran Also idk if we should be letting the president get away with just kidnapping a foreign leader, even if it is someone as awful as Maduro. It sets a really bad precedent 😭

Show me examples of people defending maduro. The only examples I’ve seen of this come from the right trying to gaslight their supporters into thinking a significant proportion of people on the left defend him

Then don’t group those people with me tf. “Many of you” get your head out of this two party mindset. People can believe different things. Just because you see some people doing this then that doesn’t mean everyone or most are. Generalization is such a basic concept. Learn it.
