    At the moment? When was there ever a time the US weren’t the bad guys?

      Briefly the us was the good guys when we killed a bunch of slavers and then when we killed a bunch of fascists. Those were exceptions to the rule though.

        Looks at founding fathers… Yeah killed the slavers. Puts blanket over Native Indians. Hides Chinese rail workers under rug. Renames Irish “Indentured workers”

              So you at least understand the comment you replied to wasn’t talking about the founding fathers… So why fucking bring them up?

                  Re-read the comment chain chief.

                  “Briefly the us was the good guys when we killed a bunch of slavers”

                  “Looks at founding fathers… Yeah killed the slavers.”

                  Nobody said the founding fathers killed the slavers. Yes, the founding fathers were slavers. They were dead by the time the civil war came around, at which point the US was briefly the good guys when yes, they did in fact kill slavers. You’re being deliberately obtuse.
