The democratic values I take for granted is under direct threat from the us. Your government is literally funding separatist movements in my country.

I mean, obviously.

But when was the last time our "democratic values" were under attack by a foreign country and actually needed defending?

9/11? Pearl Harbor?

Maybe I'm missing something. We have a giant military and a tendency to use it. On occasion, against democratically elected leaders in other countries.

You're right; freedom isn't free. But foreign countries aren't exactly the biggest threats to American democracy at the moment.

The last time the US defended freedom through military means was WWII.

As Abraham Lincoln said, the greatest threat to freedom in America is a domestic tyrant, not a foreign army.
