Funnily enough most of these neolibs used to use the saying ‘no two countries with a Mcdonalds have gone to war’ as their justification for why capitalist globalization is/was important to establish, but Ukraine and Russia demonstrated that was false years ago. now sir kid starver is going to blame it on Trump
The McDonalds thing was never close to true. There had been a number of inter-McDonald country wars before it was claimed in 1999, and many more since then.
They still use the saying but it’s replaced with “democracies” so they can define wars out of existence by declaring one of the countries wasn’t a “democracy”

Panama
It’s only a war if Bad Country does it. When
or 
does it, it’s just a “policing action” or “limited military intervention” and doesn’t count.
