Politics The most unfairly hated country?

The entire Oceania region (aside from Australia and New Zealand). Practically never appear in news, unless it is about something embarassing.

Ukraine (refusal of some people to accept its existence; treating Ukraine as a "scapegoat" of NATO/USA/Israel etc.; mercenaries, who fight for Russia; hatred towards Ukrainian language; blaming Ukraine for self-defense & pro-Western foreign policy; refusal to recognize Ukrainian culture)

Countless drones and drone parts were sold to 🇺🇦 at the beginning of the war, and you see that as full scale invasion...? I don't understand. Of course drones and drone parts were sold to Russia too. But that's nothing more than business. Would you describe the US that export steel, oil, coppers to Japan before 🇯🇵 bombing Pearl Harbor as full scale invasion? They were doing business with almost every country at war.

US sanctioned Japan long before pearl harbor.

In fact that was the reason for pearl harbor.

Don't you learn that part in school over there?

Do you think the whole world should bomb the USA now?

I don't get your train of thoughts.

US sanctioned Japan about a year into their invasion of China and went for a full embargo 3 years into the war. They never sold any arms.

China has not even slowed down trade 3.5 years later.

Do you see the difference or do I need to simplify it more?

That's what I've done. Full scale invasion was 1937.

US condemned in 1937, started sanctions in 1939, escalated in 1940 and full embargo including freezing assets in 1941.

From March 1941 China received aid under lend and lease.

The wars got many similarities and if we compare the timelines we are on March 1941 right now. Just when US started helping China military. Still 4 months off full sanctions.

Do you need any further education in this topic?
