I dont take blanket statement like "America is the cause of all regime changes in history" seriously.

As I mentioned, every major country funds initiatives in every major country. I can list all the countries that have US funding that didnt have a revolution.

I can mention the fact that Russia obviously funds activities in the US. Does that mean Trump is a Russian agent or was being helped by Russia? Was Jan 6 organized by Russia because they were certainly funding something?

What about all the regime changes that went against our interests? Im sure we were funding Iran when they flipped against us. Did we cause that one? And Cuba?

Are you really trying to say that all political movements that lead to regime changes in all countries are not genuine political expression, but primarily the responsibility of some foreign power? We can't possibly take that argument seriously.

Its the same argument you are making as before. You're making a blanket statement thats partially true and using it to imply extremely specific outcomes that dont necessarily follow and you have 0 evidence to support:

Governments lie so this specific thing I want to be a lie is a lie even though I have 0 actual evidence... but governments lie.
Governments fund things in other countries, sometimes governments help overthrow other countries and that involves funding, so this specific political movement that I want to blame on the US but have 0 actual evidence for any inappropriate behavior on the part of the US is an overthrow... because governments fund things in other countries.

Don't you understand how ridiculous that sounds?

If you want to raise the history of American involvement in overthrows as an argument, pick some examples and lets compare it to what happened in Ukraine.

I need a name for your type of frustrating argumentation... lets call it:

"All things are the same in every situation ever" :P
