    It’s either reductionist “Blame the government, not the people!” or holist “The world is at fault” with you people, you just can’t bring yourself to call out Western exploitation of the Global South.

    There are at least 3 settler-colonies in the last panel that, in the past and as we speak, actively commit genocide, ethnic cleansing, destabilization of Global South states and other crimes, which were created and continuously enabled by the remaining featured countries, 4 of which were former empires that continue their legacy through neocolonialism. The rest, whom benefit greatly from said neocolonialism or are direct perpetrators themselves, are comprador states practicing systemic violence and repression on those that so much as sympathize with Dewesternization and anti-imperialism, states that harbor a shit ton of Nazis and states that are happy to murder immigrants and asylum seekers escaping the violence perpetrated by said states.

    In order of apperance:

    • The Ethnic Cleansing of Palestine and the Creation of Israel (How We Got Here)
    • The territories that were, at one time, colonized by the British Empire:

    • I don’t have a good comprehensive resource on Japan or Actually Part of China, someone else please help.

    • List of US Atrocities

    • Scandinavia’s Covert Role in Western Imperialism

    • The Jakarta Method (correctly circles back to the US as the root cause)

    • NATO deserves the label ‘criminal organization’ within meaning of the Nuremberg judgment.

    • How Poland’s antisemites helped colonise Palestine

    • The Settler-Colony by the British known as Australia

    • Combined longpost by я не из калининграда and davel respectively, detailing everything Ukraine

    • I’m skipping the UN on account of it being useless… Just take my word for it… or something.

    • France: The Most Evil Empire To Ever Exist

    • Germany was never Denazified

    • EU countries were already listed, I don’t need to belabor the point.

    EDIT: I confused Indonesia for Monaco, lmao.

      Don’t have a specific link right now but the civilian death toll from the Japanese operations in Manchuria is most likely above 10 million. There are also several ethnic minorities in Japan that have been colonized by them relatively recently e.g. Okinawa, ehich is also secondarily occupied by a huge US base.

      I think it’s Indonesia, not Monaco. The flags are very similar, but the Indonesian one is slightly lighter red.

        oh woops, thanks for pointing that out. I guess I don’t have a great resource on Indonesia either other than The Jakarta Method, so I’ll just add that.
