    Hey Andres, if the USA would invade and annex the Yucatán Peninsula (Cancún) how would you feel if some country on the other side of the world ask you to stop the fight and just talk to the USA? … yeah, right.

      By that logic the entirety of America should declare unending war against the United States. Doesn’t sound that terrible if you ask me, but isn’t exactly the “humanitarian” approach.

      Yucatán doesn’t have Americans living in it.

      In fact America did invade and annex parts of Mexico. Why do you think half of California has Spanish names?

        Whataboutism, one of the core tools of a Russian propaganda bot.

          Russian propaganda bot.

          Oh he’s not a bot. They are a real verified human doing this as a labor of love.

            He might be made of flesh, but that doesn’t mean he isn’t programned.

            That’s not an argument from fallacy, they aren’t claiming they’re wrong.

        Oh man wait until you hear about China starting a territory dispute with India, Japan, the Philippines, and building artificial islands to try and claim more territory!

        What dumb fucking country tries to start a land war with THE ONE OTHER COUNTRY IN THE WORLD WITH A COMPARABLE POPULATION?
