The biggest new one right now is Pakistan but all the old ones such as DRC too of course

In what world are those imperialist projects? Can you qualify that in some way? Let's go with 1, say Pakistan

[-] Linkerbaan@lemmy.world -1 points 9 months ago

Pakistan has their government overthrown by an American backed military dictatorship to give mortar shells to Ukraine.

DRC gets supplied with weapons by America for its internal wars.

I can't find any solid evidence for this Pakistan claim. I see that an anonymous source reached out to one outlet, but I haven't found anything to corroborate Seems a bit tenuous thus far. Do you have any evidence you've seen in particular?

tldr: Pakistan wanted to stay neutral on Russia-Ukraine, America wanted to give their mortar shells to Ukraine. Imran Khan said no. America overthrew Imran khan, got him arrested and installed a military dictatorship.

In the recent election people in Pakistan still voted Imran Khan, the military government backed by America just ignored it.

The rules for posting and commenting, besides the rules defined here for lemmy.world, are as follows:

Rules (interactive)


Rule 1- All posts must be legitimate questions. All post titles must include a question.

Rule 4- No self promotion or upvote-farming of any kind.

That's it.



Rule 5- No baiting or sealioning or promoting an agenda.

Questions which, instead of being of an innocuous nature, are specifically intended (based on reports and in the opinion of our crack moderation team) to bait users into ideological wars on charged political topics will be removed and the authors warned - or banned - depending on severity.



Rule 6- Regarding META posts and joke questions.

Provided it is about the community itself, you may post non-question posts using the [META] tag on your post title.

On fridays, you are allowed to post meme and troll questions, on the condition that it's in text format only, and conforms with our other rules. These posts MUST include the [NSQ Friday] tag in their title.

If you post a serious question on friday and are looking only for legitimate answers, then please include the [Serious] tag on your post. Irrelevant replies will then be removed by moderators.



Rule 7- You can't intentionally annoy, mock, or harass other members.

If you intentionally annoy, mock, harass, or discriminate against any individual member, you will be removed.

Likewise, if you are a member, sympathiser or a resemblant of a movement that is known to largely hate, mock, discriminate against, and/or want to take lives of a group of people, and you were provably vocal about your hate, then you will be banned on sight.



Rule 8- All comments should try to stay relevant to their parent content.



Rule 9- Reposts from other platforms are not allowed.

Let everyone have their own content.



Rule 10- Majority of bots aren't allowed to participate here.
