    No one is saying that the US is good though.

    Exactly because of what you said in your last paragraph, some don’t want to use an instance run by people with a certain political agenda.

      I think its a mistake.

      We already divided the earth into countries, and now we are supposed to divide ourselves in the fediverse also because we cant stand eachothers opinins?

        Are you seriously pretending things such as

        “actually no one was killed at tiananmen square and if anyone was it was soldiers who were killed by those unruly students and not the other way around.”

        are mere opinion?

          My point is, we shouldnt act like little fighters here on the fediverse, not when there are so much positive things to focus on.

        Personally I don’t think tolerating intolerance is just a differing opinion. I feel like excusing genocide puts them in a group of people i don’t want to associate and I don’t think an “opinion” like denying genocide should be sat at the same table as reality.

        Don’t mince my words, I hate all imperialistic governments who commit genocide and if there were posts about the US never having intentionally killed all the buffalo, trail of tears, those culture stripping schools etc or our own version of those schools here in Aotearoa I would be just as disgusted.
