No. No, I just got something in my eye. I’m fine.

      Sure, and that’s a good thing for them to be doing. What does that have to do with their human right’s record?

          Do you have a timestamp to the relevant portion? Because the first ten minutes do not address how the problematic support for Graham Platner is at all connected to how Yemen’s commitment to a (noble) military coalition thus excuses their human rights record.

            Understanding Graham Platners background is essential to understanding the American Surpremacy which is the topic of the video.

            If you genuinely think Yemen has a worse track record than the US after watching the full video then I can’t help you. Around 25:00 there’s a great point wich requires the prior context.

              You’re dodging the question: Why does Yemen’s involvement in this coalition excuse it’s human right’s record?

              American supremacy is an important topic, yes, but it has nothing to do with Yemen’s internal human rights record, which is the topic being discussed.

                If the USA wans’t involved in the Yemeni revolution Houthis woudln’t exists. The only revolt that was relatively succesful was the one where the west didn’t interfere

                  I’m… not sure what bearing that has on this conversation. As far as I’m aware, the west is only involved in this by supporting Israel.

                    Saudis Arabia was involved in creating chaos in Yemen fully backed by the USA. In Sudan the UAE another american ally are arming the RSF. Everywhere the US or it’s allies go chaos rein

                They are risking their lives fighting a genocide that puts them straight at the top of human rights with nothing to gain from it while everyone else is complicit and nodding along.

                  So your position is that the good someone does excuses the evil they also do. An interesting position.

                    No that seems to be your position based on our conversation. But you refuse to acknowledge the evils done by the West because they are Ubermenschen.
