    The whole point is that there is no comparison necessary. It’s nothing but a deflection.

      you are getting the deflection backwards. the comparison is very necessary when the problems and contradictions in the countries being smeared pale in comparison.

      and when the real intention is to weaken any challenge to us hegemony, not save anyone or spread any kind of democracy.

        No it is not. If that’s the case, nothing matters except the worst of the worst. Everything can be excused by “yeah but that other guy is worse so it’s okay”. It’s preposterous.
