let me correct myself
Latter half, definitely.
^^
yes sorry it was just to make reference of the time
@yung What I am stating is that the US didn't actually do that, because it was the corporations in the US that existed there and controlled the majority of business, if it was imperialistic, they would have been owned by the US government.
After the Berlin Blockade is when the US went full “where the commies at” mode.
@K▲ISER Which is why the US supported such dictators.
Corporations don’t have the legal power to invade countries bruh
Mhm.
They don’t. Collusion with government is somehow needed
Or at least they can’t after the BETC
@Deleted User Thus the reason I called the US’s foreign policy shit.
@yung They didn't invade militaristically though, they were granted permission to set up shop there, and due to them being based in the US, they absolutely destroyed competition.
@K▲ISER Seems they still keep a similar model, looking at their middle east policies.
Nonono The US has engaged in economic imperialism as you described, and you’re right in that.
But militaristic invasion happened either independently, or in coordination with this economic imperialism you talk about. The US simply has sent its troops to invade countless countries.
@yung I didn't state that it was imperialism you dumbass, ans neither did militaristic imperialism occur.
Yes ahahaha US troops have never been mobilized
Cool story dude
They sure as hell have been mobilized but never for imperialism in the 20th century.
They have though. It’s incredible how you can deny this.
By doing it? lmao?
Wow, what an example.
@Deleted User Agreed, with Assad, Gaddafi, Saddam Hussein and such.
Fuck that took a while.
@K▲ISER Gaddafi would have helped libya so much.
nigga you can look it up on your own I’m not here to lecture you about history kid. What the fuck
@yung Do the arguing for yourself you prick, why do you think we are arguing over?
I’m not arguing with you stupid
Then what have we been doing?
🤔
You were asking me questions at first and then you went into some tantrum about how the US has never committed imperialism because I don’t know what.
@K▲ISER You hearing this guy?
Ye.
@yung "Because I don't know what"
And yes, the US was Imperialist as fuck, but so was the Soviets.
All nations have a want to expand their power.
@K▲ISER Not in the 20th century.
Ah that backfired
That’s just how it works.
lol
