See, and when we criticise the West we're the Russian trolls apparently...I feel sorry for American women and trans people but I really don't give a shit if the US loses its place in the world. Good. No amount of condescending USAID 'aid' will atone for the deaths in Chile, Iran, Afghanistan, Bangladesh, Korea, Guatemala, Angola, Vietnam, Bolivia, Laos, Libya, East Timor and god knows how many other places.
