That’s the same as from the American playbook. Just read “Confessions of an Economic Hitman”.
Why is it ok for America to use these tactics on Latin America yet reprehensible when China does the same? Isn’t this just the pot calling the kettle black?
- mc32 8y agoAre you talking IMF stuff or things the US did back way back when? Is it okay now because the US did it? Just because Stalin in the past starved millions, does that make it okay for the Ukraine, if it desired to do so, or anyone else? Your point is tangential. Regardless, I was only pointing out that what Germany did to Greece was similar to what China does now to many countries. I'm simply comparing one policy to another. You're the one implying condemnation for China.
- fro0116 8y agoI don't see how this is relevant to the discussion at hand. I don't recall seeing any mention of the US in the above comments. Nor any connotations suggesting that it was OK for America to do the same. Even if this wasn't completely off-topic, I'd still recommend reading up on whataboutism to understand why this post was not making a substantive argument: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Whataboutism https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Whataboutism
