#'aided the philippines' mainly aguinaldo and he was a bitch

"technically an incorrect statement" off to a good start

"this is a monument to a victory vs spain in the spanish american war" yeah in manila which led to the us occupying manila and also the spanish american war ended with spain relinquishing claim over its colonies to the us so you cannot separate that from the us colonization of the philippines

"the us aided cuba and the philippines in their rebellion" for their own interests and guess what happened after and what is still happening now

#'aided the philippines' mainly aguinaldo and he was a bitch #reading those replies just after i celebrated an american scoring in hockey while playing in an american city was Not Fun #how can you be ahistorical while discussing history
