Used to be my main and fav client (after Jerboa), but it hasn't been updated in a year and Summit is just plain better and almost as customisable

The concept of "Lebensraum" literally stems from Manifest Destiny.

The Hitlerites were also very impressed by the Jim Crow laws and racial segregation in the USA

As many other liberals, you seem to only be concerned about "unlawfulness towards citizens", not humanity, justice, or ethics.

I hope this will start a trend of HQ and OG edits/memes here (a girl can dream ~w~)

I don't disagree with you, it's just that enthusiastic liberals love to gloss over issues like relatively widespread corruption and fascist elements in Ukraine. Also Ukraine doesn't have a white west in terms of war crimes either (Amnesty International reported on that IIRC).
What I mean to say is: uncritical, blind support is a big blunder IMO

Most imperialist adventures were justified by claiming that the invaded nation was somehow bad enough to deserve it and it has always been bullshit.

Exactly, it's basically what I said in my other comment.

Does this meme imply otherwise? /gen

I don't see anything denying that Russia itself doesn't have a fascist infestation, just points to western hypocrisy as far as I understand it

I agree to the extent that Ukraine has a problem with fascists, but disagree to the extent that the bonapartist RF uses it as a legitimisation of their fraternal war

I also feel the same way sometimes, but tbh, I'd rather go for quality and accessibility over quantity
