It's getting really annoying seeing so many libs responding to any kind of call for helping people whose government happens to not be a democracy with this ridiculous 'wHy dO yOu LoVe diCtAtORsHIpS sO mUcH'

I see someone ask why so much aid is sent to Ukraine rather than try and help countries in Africa and it's met with dismissal as people liking dictatorships so much

I see someone ask why Europe doesn't stand by Gaza, Lebanon or Iran like they do Ukraine, and it's met with 'Ukraine is a democracy, I don't care what happens to a dictatorship'

Even now someone points out in a thread here that Israel and Trump are visiting the same horrors on Iran as America visited on the DPRK and it's met with a dismissive 'your favorite monarchy' nonsense

Are the lives of people who live in non-democratic countries just forfeit? Genuinely speaking I hope countries in the global South all realign with China, because these brain worms exist in Europe as well. You can't have dialogue with libs at all, these people are just well spoken demons.

because democracy means it's a country of white people, and it's OK to kill people who aren't white

i think it's really that simple, don't give them the credit of thinking they have a robust theoretical worldview underpinning their politics. they're just ignorant chauvinists at the end of the day

All the other kinds of democracies are just phony democracy and not the real western kind where you have actual choice between nationalists and slightly more left centrist conservatives.
