USAID lost its funding
- Comment on What's easier to shoot, a bow or a firearm? 3 weeks ago:
That’s not really true, early firearm existed alongside bows for centuries before they became dominant.
- Comment on This letter from "Friends of Zion" my grandmother received today 4 weeks ago:
Damn, very good point.
- Comment on This letter from "Friends of Zion" my grandmother received today 4 weeks ago:
There really isn’t a good solution but that’s something that people really don’t want to hear.
Actually there is a good solution, you just don’t want to hear it. Free Palestine.
- Comment on This letter from "Friends of Zion" my grandmother received today 4 weeks ago:
Hamas murdered innocent Israelis
ANC murdered innocent South Africans, WW2 resistance groups murdered innocent Germans. To hell with you and your both sides bullshit that favours oppressors.
- Comment on This letter from "Friends of Zion" my grandmother received today 4 weeks ago:
Hamas is a terrorist organization that’s calling for the extermination of all Jews
This is a lie on par with “Ukraine is controlled by Nazis”.
Around 6,000 soldiers went into Israel and murder and tortured innocent people. Palestine is pretty innocent as far which isn’t great for them as they are getting caught in the middle.
Damn, crazy how Israeli citizens are “murdered and tortures by Hamas soldiers who went into Israel”, while Palestinian citizens merely “get caught in the middle”
Fucking disgusting use of two faced rhetoric.

You would have said the same thing about the annihilation of the Warsaw ghetto

Trolling is when you aren’t a homophobic fascist
- Comment on I knew it 5 weeks 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 5 weeks ago:
Average American fascist
- Comment on I knew it 5 weeks 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 5 weeks 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 5 weeks ago:
Western liberals when they find an acceptable target for their virulent homophobia.
- Comment on I knew it 5 weeks ago:
It’s literally just calling people gay as an insult
- Comment on I knew it 5 weeks ago:
Just some casual homophobia
- Comment on Why hasn't the deep state stopped trump? 5 weeks 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? 5 weeks 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.
- Comment on So, is the USA screwed? 5 weeks ago:
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? 5 weeks 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? 5 weeks ago:
France still has literal, actual colonies, you dumb fascist.
- Comment on So, is the USA screwed? 5 weeks 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.

They aren’t even the less moral option anymore.
Never were.

How did FDR feel about gay rights?
More. Gay. Drone. Pilots!
- Comment on So, is the USA screwed? 5 weeks ago:
Most neoliberal
- Comment on So, is the USA screwed? 5 weeks ago:
They are cowards and money follows power… not the other way around.
feudalism brain
- Comment on So, is the USA screwed? 5 weeks 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? 5 weeks 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? 5 weeks 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? 5 weeks 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.
