    How convenient that every time a moral issue comes up that we’re on the right side of, it’s not our problem.

    I think the last time this happened was World War 2.

    and even then internment camps happened

      No, don’t worry, MLs advocated us staying out of the ‘Capitalist Imperialist War’ there too, until their favorite Nazi-allied country got betrayed.

      Unsurprising that you find preventing the genocide of Ukrainians to be the ‘wrong side’ of this war.

        You’re thinking of World War 1, which the communists were 100% vindicated for not supporting.

        MLs in World War 2 wanted us to support the USSR. Curious how supporting the communists put us on the right side of history, while all the times we fought against communists we were very clearly on the wrong side of it - must be a coincidence.
