10 months agoIf you guys claim that you’re a country that respects freedoms and democrasy, you must listen to what Texas wishes. If they want to break off from the US, so be it. It’ll be their choice that to be respected. They aren’t happy with Biden and the US as a whole – it’s also their opinion and you’re to respect it too. Wouldn’t it be a democratic decision?
You can’t have it both ways: blame other countries for the ways they handle internal matters, yell “suppression of freedom! one must respect democrasy!”, yet suppress the opinions and thus freedom of your people in Texas.
Aren’t you for the freedom of self-determination?
