Trolling is when you aren’t a homophobic fascist
- Comment on I knew it 1 day ago:
Exactly, and apparently I’m a Russian agent for calling it out… At this point how is this any different to MAGA shit?
If people are wondering how the USA has lurched into fascism so easily, it’s because even their “left” ultimately shares many of the same values as their right, they just disagree on who the acceptable targets are.
- Comment on I knew it 1 day ago:
Average American fascist
- Comment on I knew it 1 day ago:
I think the joke is that Trump/Musk are homophobic. It doesn’t glorify it.
No, the “joke” is calling them gay as insult, quite clearly.
If this were just two random guys, it’d be a fine addition to Lemmy.
There are no “acceptable targets” for homophobia.
- Comment on I knew it 1 day ago:
Yes, only Russian bots oppose homophobia…
God, westerner liberal’s brains are completely cooked now, actively trying to be just as bad as MAGA.
- Comment on I knew it 1 day ago:
Western liberals when they find an acceptable target for their virulent homophobia.
- Comment on I knew it 1 day ago:
It’s literally just calling people gay as an insult
- Comment on I knew it 1 day ago:
Just some casual homophobia
- Comment on Why hasn't the deep state stopped trump? 1 day ago:
???
- Comment on Is there any hope for Ukraine to survive as an independent state now that trump is desperately wishing for a peace treaty with Russia, even bypassing Ukraine? 1 day ago:
It’s seems incredibly unlikely to me that Ukraine will cease to exist as a country, even without American support I can’t see it being annexed entirely.
It will, however, probably be forced to make some fairly brutal concessions to Russia, including territorial ones.

When he dies in the not too distant future, he’s either going to be completely rehabilitated, or he’s going to be painted as the only bad Republican.
- Comment on So, is the USA screwed? 2 days ago:
he Koreans, Taiwanese, Japanese, Pinoy, Vietnamese, Malays will be surprised to hear that.
Oh my mistake, I didn’t realize I was talking to the collective lemmy account of the people of Korea, Taiwan, Japan, Pinoy, Vietnam, and Malay.
Oh wait, I’m not. I’m talking to an arrogant westerner who feels entitled to tell non-westerners what their opinions are, and to tell them that actually they would be no worse off if America was bombing them and taking over.
You are aware that China invaded Vietnam after the USA left?
Notice how you have to go back half a century, to an example that is not nearly as bad as what America did.
You are ignorant of the regional policies.
No, you’re just a denialist about how brutal western colonialism actually is. You’re not ignorant of it though, you’re an apologist for it, desperately trying to redefine the word so it seems no worse than infrastructure deals.
- Comment on So, is the USA screwed? 2 days ago:
France still has literal, actual colonies, you dumb fascist.
- Comment on So, is the USA screwed? 2 days ago:
I’m sorry but you sound pike the people who call DOGE “auditors” who “look for corruption and end it”
What the fuck kind of argument is that? “Oh you sound like the people who say [completely unrelated thing with no resemblence].” OK then, well you sound like the people who say that black people should be sterilized.
China has been trying to get into big infrastructure projects in Finland as wel
Infrastructure projects? Oh GOD NO! THE HUMANITY! THEY MIGHT AS WELL BE CARPET BOMBING HELSINKI!
And it’s very good that we declined the offer. We were a colony of Sweden for 600 years. We don’t need to become one of China’s now.
Yeah, building infrastructure is exactly like invading a country, massacring the natives, and forcibly taking control, definitely.
You’re fucking disgusting, colonialism apologist.

Never were.

More. Gay. Drone. Pilots!

Most neoliberal

They are cowards and money follows power… not the other way around.
feudalism brain
- Comment on So, is the USA screwed? 2 days ago:
he wants to reduce military spending by 50% too, so hard power will be down the drain as well.
You say this like it’s a bad thing
- Comment on So, is the USA screwed? 2 days ago:
It really is illustrative of the absolute depths of westerners complete thoughtless hypocrisy that they think building a few shacks on uninhabited islands is remotely comparable to what the USA does.
- Comment on So, is the USA screwed? 2 days ago:
Fewer strings also means China doesn’t care about democracy, human rights, and such.
Looooool. As if the west does.
American’s continue to be the most propagandized people on Earth.
- Comment on So, is the USA screwed? 2 days ago:
What’s wrong is the financing scheme that makes the infrastructure effectively Chinese national property. And when China can decide how and when a country’s infrastructure can be used, China gets a lot of influence in that country’s domestic politics. And it does use that influence.
Source: The American Burger-freedom foundation for advanced jingoism research. That $1,600,000,000 the US government earmarked for anti-China propaganda definition getting returns.
USA destroying Iraq doesn’t make China any less colonial.
No, but it demonstrates there’s a vast, vast difference between actual colonial violence, and the bullshit that American chauvinists try to describe as colonialism.
China helping rebuild Iraq in a way that will make Iraq a vassal of China… That does make China more colonial.
“Yes, America destroying an entire country and killing hundreds of thousands of people is bad, but have you considered that China helping to rebuild that country is actually just as bad?”
Ghoul. You are a ghoul.
And it will do it much more than before
And thank God for that: the world doesn’t need amoral monsters who think that building infrastructure is the same thing as mass bombing and murder fucking with the rest of the world.
- Comment on So, is the USA screwed? 2 days ago:
all the colonialist projects China is doing in Africa
Westerners love changing the meaning of words like “colonialism” so that they can use it to attack their enemies, as if their new definition still holds all the moral wait that it did when it was properly applied. Honestly, calling China’s relationship with Africa a “colonialist project” is a fucking disgusting insult to all the people who suffered under actual, real colonialism perpetrated by Western nations.
I would absolutely not say that “China is focusing on itself”
No, there isn’t, you absolute ghoul.

No it isn’t

Saddam Hussein is another one. Without the USA,
Damn, and then what happened?
Latin America has had no major wars, only guerrillas and such for a long time.
And major fascist take overs, backed by the USA, of course.
The USA also kept Europe together with NATO.
Lol
The USA made peace between Egypt and Israel possible, a cornerstone for stability in the region.
Lol, yeah; the US sure has done a good job at regional stability by stepping on the neck of anyone who gets in the way of Isreal’s genocidal settler colonial project.
Deeply unserious
- Comment on So, is the USA screwed? 2 days ago:
Copy Russia’s playbook.
Or, you know, the playbook of the US in all its past invasions?
- Comment on So, is the USA screwed? 2 days ago:
Former presidents at least recognized they had the responsibility to take care of both the people who voted for them and the people who didn’t.
I wonder if Americans are going to rewrite history to rehabilitate Trump the same way they do their other former presidents.
