    More than the US? The country that maintained slaves for many generations, on land taken from slaughteted and genocided indigenous peoples? The country that is to this day actively supporting genocide purely to protect its economic interests via Imperialism?

        You may want to look at the actual numbers, rather than relying on vibes.

            I’m not skipping over China. You’re getting upset that someone is correctly calling out the United States.

            Genocide of Indigenous Americans resulted in 4-8 million murders.

            American slavery resulted in dozens of millions of deaths and forced labor.

            The entirety of Iraqi infrastructurw returned to pre-industrial levels specifically to make the Iraqi state more liable to respond to US Demands on false pretenses.

            260 million bombs dropped on Laos on mere suspicions of pro-Communist activity.

            Hundreds of thousands of Vietnamese civilians murdered via napalm, agent orange, and raw gunfire.

            Unwavering support for Ethnic Cleansing of Palestinians via a genocidal Aparthied regime

            Many massacres of both North and South Koreans during the Korean War, installing a far-right dictator in the Republic of Korea who murdered his own citizens regularly

            Unwavering support for a fascist, slave-owning regime in Cuba to protect US interests

            Countless more. Do I really need to go on to illustrate just how evil the American Empire is, and why pulling a whataboutism to distract from this might be seen as insensitive?
