There is a certain level of dark irony in this situation that I am enjoying. I’ve heard so much bullshit about “America, fix your country!” And now it’s your problem, and it turns out that it isn’t so easy to do when the rules aren’t written for you. The rules are always written by those in power to stay in power, and for all the huffing and puffing Europe has done despite the cluster fuck of Brexit, it turns out you really aren’t in a much better position to effect change than we are.

And before anyone gets any ideas about saying, “Well, the oligarchs got their power in America,” why don’t you take a look at where the money comes from and where the addresses on the tax free, no questions asked bank vaults lead to. Europe has been enabling this shit for centuries.

@chemical_cutthroat you starting this by "there is a certain level of dark irony"🤨 We up hold the values of sovereign nation & democracy. See, we have been under some kind of tirany long before the US were a colonie. The last thing we want is insert ourselves into other countries' politics. Unlike the US toward every countries in South America. We learned from our & your mistakes. We're still learning that's why we try to warn people when we see fascism rising (what you call huffing & puffing).👍

Lmao. You call America “colonies” in the same breath you say you don’t want to get involved in others politics. Europe was built on exactly that. America was a European colony. The only reason Europe stopped colonizing is because you were too broke after World War II to continue. You didn’t “learn a lesson”, you got your asses kicked by an art school drop out. All you Europeans like to pretend you are so enlightened, but you’re just too broke to go back to your old ways. Like a crackhead who says they’ve kicked the habit, but really they can’t afford the fix. As soon as you get a little bit if that juice you are right back on your bullshit. The hard swing to the right in European politics is evidence enough of that.

@chemical_cutthroat
say what now? the US WAS a colonie, past (AKA"no longer") that's learning from our mistakes. i'll try to simplify it! europe did bad things, i'm french &portuguese so.. yeah we did bad things (good too like your country existing). we learn from our mistake. we're intelligent, but not wise & still needed to go throw the motion to get it! you seem to need to go throw it too, even with us telling you exactly what's happening. now don't juge! you're losing to the vilage idiot!

Yeah, the best hope for a future that inludes Germany's economy going down the drain, we completely F up the electricity grid and then just live without electricity, a job or affordable groceries. If it's up to the "ideas" of the AfD. Plus the nazi stuff...

Can we please keep that nonsensical hashtag spam out of Lemmy?
