 Russia’s involvement in Africa? What about OUR involvement? See: THE SLAVE TRADE

Russia invaded every single one of its neighbors and committed several genocides during the Soviet period, which they’re now doing again, not to mention their involvement in Africa

This is the second post of yours I’ve seen playing whataboutism with atrocities Russia is committing today by pointing out that America did similar or related things 200 years ago. Do you have anything intelligent to add at all?

The most prolific slavers in Africa were other Africans, notably the Dahomey and Mali empires

Blaming African kingdoms is the most ahistorical response you could have given me

Lmao. If you think I was implying we haven’t done things in the last 100, 50, or even 20 years you’re a fucking idiot. We commit atrocities today. We have committed many more in our parents and grandparents’ lifetime. If you saw my other post you’d know I’m talking about that. Just because I criticize the U.S. doesn’t mean I love Russia. Russia is fascist just like we are.
