* shitpost warning *

Westerners dunking on human rights campaigners who have been imprisoned by some of the worst regimes on the planet is gross

Liberal democracy is very, very far from perfect

It's not the ultimate way of getting along (I would hope)

It's not absolute freedom

It's not enough freedom

But cynicism toward liberal democracy is a Western decadent luxury

People living under the alternatives would give their front and back teeth for half of Western freedoms

And are risking and giving their lives for a freer democratic future

For their people

Calling human rights campaigners "CIA" is moronic

Rudely attacking them as they onboard to nostr is doubly moronic

Sorry not sorry
