      Just because its not present doesnt mean I dont have thoughts about it as well. How could I possibly make such a comment and also not have sympathetic views towards the people affected by US imperialism?

        It’s still a choice to leave them unmentioned except for referencing their status as official “bad guys” and describing military deployment there like guarding pillow forts and taking a dog on walks.

        Sympathy isn’t a on/off switch, plus “sympathetic views” is very vague, I’m pretty sure only outright genocidal fash would lack any sympathy for victims of US imperialism.
