Argentina was massacring indigenous peoples until 1880 in order to occupy Patagonia; however, the Malvinas were already Argentine territory as early as 1833... 😁

Fucking hell, I thought the shit they were lobbing at Polanski was weak sauce but "we should resolve Falklands sovereignty diplomatically" and "Guys, genocide is bad" seem pretty reasonable takes to me

#IranWar Falklands sovereignty, a media distraction that ignores a fundamental question that @UN still does not recognise its self-determination open.substack.com/pub/jamesgrc...

I'll have you know that they only seek to liberate Islas Malvinas from it's history of colonialism, and anyway they've got a perfectly valid moral claim to the Falklands inherited from the Spanish empire, no matter what the residents say.

-> aguas españolas de Gibraltar... si por el PP fuera ya serían británicas.

Your buddy accepted the correct name. Diego Garcia is now leased from Mauritius. Malvinas are Argentinian.

UK's claim to Falklands is more moral than Argentina's claim to... entire Argentina. Since there was no settler-colonialism involved. First Nations literally ignored the islands and didn't settle there permanently. The people living in Falklands don't want to be in Argentina, either.

El ex embajador Jorge Argüello: “Malvinas no solo es memoria, es recursos y proyección hacia la Antártida”

Edgardo Esteban: “Malvinas no es solo pasado, es sobre todo futuro”

One war that comes to mind for me right now, less because of any sort of military parallel and more for the political aspects, is the Falklands War. An imperiled dictatorship starts a war that it feels will rally popular sentiment to it, only to be humiliated. You know, just saying.

Well I’ve been told with some authority that British food is bad because it’s a whites-only culture and that the UK should apologise for the genocide of the native Falklands population.
