… sure seems restricted to bodily harm to elites.
Argentina should be red too. Look up Project Condor
Tfw I look up the history of the term Banana Republic
Ew, the america centric map projection, cut eurasia in half, why?
What would the argument be for using a Euro-centric map for displaying data about US military interventions across the world???
No one ever uses this nonsense
It doesn’t cut a large populated land in half. It’s also the one everybody already know where to find anything.
But anyway, how the fuck the projection isn’t symmetrical for the North and South hemispheres? How does one achieve that?

Why would that matter? This data has nothing to do with population.

That’s quite a subjective and eurocentric perspective.

This appears to be a Mercator projection, or something close to it. The land in the southern hemisphere is generally close to the equator so it appears smaller as part of that distortion. Also it looks a bit weird because Antarctica usually balances that out visually, but is excluded for this map.
There’s a lot of different options for displaying different kinds of information. For what this map is trying to convey, it makes sense for it to be centered on the US. The distortion doesn’t really matter because distance is not important. Keeping large populated is not important because the map isn’t conveying any information related to population. Is this the absolute best projection available? Probably not. But the Mercator projection is still far and away the most common today (and I see this is copy written 2010, so it would be been even more ubiquitous then).
And some examples of domestic political violence off the top of my head:
And there are many, many more…
I don’t think US & Canada are coloured right …
And Mexico. There is no way in hell we haven’t done stuff in Mexico.
That is correct ✅ idk about Canada but CIA loves it south of the border 🪇
If you count Kent State and The Bonus Army, you can include the US in that list.
Does anyone have the source for this image? The websites mentioned in the image seem to be down.
Germany, did they want to assassinate Walter Ulbricht/Erich Honecker or what?
Ummm… all violence perpetrated by the US police is political in nature.
They were, after all, invented to protect the property of capitalist parasites from the people the capitalist parasites exploited in order to become rich in the first place.
Violence doesn’t get more political than that.
Our country was literally founded on political violence. Explains the 2nd Amendment pretty well.
