Whataboutism is your best defense, and a poor attempt at that?

Equating the two is hilarious. Even so I’m not excusing all the bullshit the US has done.

At least I can say the US has done some terrible shit without getting arrested or killed. Try saying anything bad about Russia or Putin in Russia.

Huh??? what the hell do you think Assange did?

Leaking confidential information, as damning as it may be, is illegal.

Again, try saying anything bad about Putin or Russia in Russia. At least I can speak freely and scream from the rooftops about the shitty parts of the US. Go ahead.

Damn thats crazy, the shit that might hurt the state is illegal(and therefore presumably justifiable to punish) while you get to do all the intellectual jerkoffs you want with no effect on anything?

Real lucky you get to live in freedomland.

So saying you disagree with something your government did is hurting the state? Lol
