Trump is a fascist pedophile who will probably have to be killed to leave. The White House has been home to genociders and rapists many times before though. To occlude the historical brutality of the United States is self-destructive and makes you less curious about how and why a pedophile rapist is right at home in the White House.
The pages of mankind’s history are written in blood by the victors. Provide us with one example of a sovereign nation that does not have a violent, oppressive history.
That’s a fair response but my point was if we intend to tear down buildings because of dark pages in history we’d be rebuilding every nation from the ground up
That’s not what it represents to any actual Americans. Yes shitty people moved through its halls, but so did national and international heroes. Reducing it as you have done isn’t going to do shit but annoy people.
Based on the .au instance I’d assume you’re from Australia, it’d be mighty silly to throw stones while living in a glass house.
Sometimes it feels like every time an American laments the shitty state of our country someone has to come along to remind us that it has always been shitty to make us feel worse.
Because you’re not, you’re lamenting the shitty state of Trump. If he was gone or not here, you would not be here commenting on the shitty state of your country at all.
And how about instead of feeling bad about your history, you learn from it, recognise it’s an issue that goes far beyond Trump and fight to ensure it never repeats itself?
You do understand that there are massive protests going on around the country right now? Telling a single person you don’t know that they should fight to fix their country does nothing, we already know the country is fucked.
Lol it’s not whataboutism, it’s pointing out the hypocrisy of your statement. I didn’t attempt to downplay the US’ checkered past or even say what in particular I was referencing, just making an observation that our countries have both done fucking awful things.
To be clear, the White House was destroyed the moment a convicted felon, adjudicated rapist, and literal insurrectionist made it his home.
So this is just finishing the job.

Tear it down with him in it.
Right, because it was fine when it was the home of slave owners, rapists, racists, genociders, imperialists, war criminals?
Americans need to learn their own history better.

“Unless someone else is perfect, I refuse to stop killing children😤”

Sounds good
If you’re too cowardly to try, then step aside.
Tell me more about how much you don’t read history.
Given that he is now making his gestapo work without pay, I think Trump now essentially falls into every one of those categories.

North or South? or the people in the middle that stole that for themselves?
I think it represents their values quite well.
Burn it to the ground.
Of course, because why would it represent reality to Americans when it can represent a mass delusion.
Every US president is a war criminal to some degree, they are not heroes.
And really? You think because my own country is shit that I can’t point out others issues? What a weak arse attempt at whataboutism.

And do you blame Trump for fucking your country or do you accept your country was fucked before Trump and will remain fucked after Trump?

Don’t bother responding, I won’t read your reply.
You will read this.
Almost like this narrative is a way to salvage US imperialism in light of the undeniable immorality of its current leader.
