    Trump is an absolute spoiled brat. When things don’t go his way, he yells, name calls and throws people out. This is the leader of the free world, being manoeuvred by his Russian masters.

        The west may be the “freest” part of the world, but I don’t buy into the “free world” propaganda bullshit. There is so much heirarchy and oppression in our “liberal democracies”, sure, it’s far better than the authoritarian regimes in other places, but IMO, “free world” is a stretch.

        Now that doesn’t take away from the fact maintaining Ukraine’s “freer” political system over a neofacist imperialist Putin is an absolute necessity to fight for the right of Ukrainians and their right to self determination.

          Free world means democracy, and democracy is not bullshit. Name any authoritarian regime that is even close to the freedom and quality of life of an average functioning or even a flawed democracy.

          sure, it’s far better than the authoritarian regimes in other places

          So you are buying into it anyway??? You sure changed your mind quickly.

          Is it perfect? No.
          Do we have something that is proven to be better? No.
          The only thing better than democracy, is if the democracy can be improved.
