Can’t wait until the CCP and their authoritarian allies have more power instead
There are 2 serial killers. Serial killer A kills people. Serial Killer B rapes, then kills, then eats people.
Serial Killer B existing doesn’t make Serial Killer A good by comparison. They are both worthy of scorn to slightly different degrees.
Just because your mother plops you out in a place doesnt obligate you to blindly worship that place from cradle to grave.
The Chinese, US, and Russian governments are bad for some of the same and for some different reasons. There are many developed nations that, unlike them, prioritize the well-being of their people and the future of their society over the economic interests their respective elites, so there’s no excuse for any nation not to.
Yes, I’m not arguing that the US is good, I’m saying I prefer it to having the authoritarians take over.
You have authoritarians. They aren’t our middle manager politicians either. The people lost control of government half a century ago to “turn the bull loose.”
If one of our oligarchs wants to build where your house is, you’re going away.
A corporation can kill 20 people through profit driven intentional negligence and get a shrug of a fine at most. If you damage their expensive property or get in the way of their oil pipelines, you go away.
If you make a better product and refuse to sell for an insulting pittance, they will use their floors of legal teams to bleed you dry, warp patent laws to fit their narrative, and effectively end you.
Our authoritarians control us through the government they’ve captured by fully legalizing and institutionalizing political bribery. On economic policy, your vote doesn’t matter. Vote red, blue, if another color gains traction they’ll buy that color too.
You just like our authoritarians better because they have marketing and PR teams, and inflict their rule by proxy of their middle managers in state and federal government. After slavery and jim crow, our owner class figured out it’s easier to quietly rule by pulling strings and using the mass media they own to keep us divided over petty social issue crap, most of which is exacerbated by our rigged by design economy. We can’t fight them if we’re too busy fighting each other, as we’re encouraged to do 24/7. “abortion unbanned… Abortion rebanned… Civil right x granted… Civil right x revoked… Stay angry… Don’t look up while we exploit your life for private profit!”
The US is the most authoritarian government in the world. How many countries have the Americans invaded in your lifetime?
Do you not have an issue with the way America uses drone strikes or do you see a secret panel that I don’t see that excused other atrocities?
I just think drone strikes with sword bombs are cool as fuck, and I’m tired of pretending that they’re not
