invading Poland, invading Finland, occupying the Baltic states, crushing the Hungarian Revolution, invading Czechoslovakia, invading Afghanistan, arming the Derg regime in Ethiopia, funding proxy wars in Angola and Mozambique, intervening in Moldova, intervening in Tajikistan, bombing Chechnya, invading Georgia, invading Ukraine, funding separatists in the Donbas, bombing Syria, arming militias in Libya, funding mercenaries in the Central African Republic, funding mercenaries in Mali
Wait, are Poland and Czechoslovakia during WWII? I don’t feel comfortable putting those two on the list (I didn’t put “invade France” for the US either, which would be absolutely bizarre). I’m also going to filter out the separatist one, bc I didn’t include KLA either for America, for example.
Actually, writing this, I notice I would have to vet all of these one by one before I would feel comfortable adding them to my comment, and I don’t have time for that. I did promise to add them to the list, so as a compromise I propose I just add a link to your comment, with the explicit caveat that I’m not sure if I agree with all of it. Would that work for you?
You need to define the criteria. France was liberated by the allied forces. And French government was independent immediately after the war (France even withdrew from NATO). Poland was under Soviet dominion until 1989. 1947 were not free elections.
For me that counts for sure.
Regarding the comment do as you prefer 😜 lacking clear criteria anything is up to interpretation.
You got also lazy with Russia. That list should have been as long as the US one
Feel free to extend it, I’ll edit the comment. Ideally in a pithy format with a pure focus on foreign interference like the US one.

I don’t know man, this has strong “victims of communism memorial” vibes, referring to e.g.

Not happy taking stuff at face value here.
I really do not get what you mean with that. What is the relationship with my comment? What are you trying to say?
Yeah, they just focus on the countries next to them mostly (and even then there’s been sponsored shit stirring in Africa, too)
