The Infallibility Myth baffles me. What’s that all about?
It’s like they cranked up the marketing, cult-of-personality bullshit to see how high it could go… and it didn’t have a limit, they were able to brainwash a lot of people with the most preposterous stuff, and they couldn’t help themselves, they just HAD to make their head a demigod.
“Me perfect in paradise, you utter dogshit capitalist.”
What is this, a first grader having a schoolyard fight?
Then there’s Mao. Not quite a demigod, but not quite human either. His myth covering a much larger area and population, so they had to make the myth a little bit subtler. But not by much.

It reminds me of this:
I unironically believe this; I have been to italy, and eaten authentic italian pizza.
Fuck off with barely any cheese and no toppings. it tastes fine as a kind of fancy bread, but give me the fuckload of cheese and meat every time
I couldn’t disagree more. I’ve also been to Italy, specifically to Napoli, and just the dough alone is phenomenal, something between pancake and bread. Then the fresh tomatoes and mozzarella on top with the fresh basil leaves for the something extra - perfect balance, heaven in my mouth!
I’ve also been to the US (west coast, Portland) and Jebus, that was terrible. First they don’t give you a pizza but a slice of pizza, then it’s reheated because they make a lot of it and can’t sell it fresh. The toppings is dry ham and tasteless cheese, a ton of cheese, but just flavorless cheese. I tried in a couple of places there with practically the same result. Thanks, but no thanks.
The Swedish pizza is probably what I would say is what you’re talking about, tons of toppings and decent dough.
Kebab pizza with french fries:
Bro you went to Portland Oregon and got some shit new york style by the slice? You fucked up
You should try
- Ken’s Artisan Pizza
- A’pizza Scholl’s
- Pizzeria Otto
- Pizza Thief
- The Star
And that’s just the best of the best that I’ve personally been to. Plenty of smaller places serving up phenomenal pies as well dotted everywhere. You only get by the slice of you’re starving right now and have less than 5 bucks.
Mid range but great
- Ollys Pizza
- Atlas
Places that are over hyped.
- Baby Doll
- Sizzle Pie
Oh I forgot to add one thing about the Italian pizza. I’ve eaten pizza in Rome too, and it was practically as terrible as in Portland.

WTF, that doesn’t sound even remotely correct. How much did you pay, $0.50? You got scammed dude. I’m from Texas which, afaik, is probably at the bottom of the list of “places you think of when someone says, ‘pizza’” but I’ve had way better pizza than what you’re describing. Hell, Pizza Hut is probably better than what you’re describing lol. That sounds horrid.
I just came back to Europe after a couple weeks in the US. The US was beautiful (travelled in the Rockies). I was surprised by the fact that I unironically would not be able to live there just because of the food. Everything was so drowned in cheese / sugar / unspecified ultraprocessed something that I had legitimate digestion issues the first week.
- “I would like an omelette please”
- “Yes sir, do you want eggs in that or just the cheese?”
I had no idea I could miss just plain real bread as much as I did by the time I got back.
Getting just regular old bread for a normal price there is basically mission impossible.
I’ve never been to Italy, but my cousin grew up there for part of their childhood. They said “Italians invented pizza, America made it good”
Yeah, no. They don’t. Whoever told you that made that shit up or heard it from an american.
Go to Napoli and never have better pizza again because it just doesn’t exist.
It’s also the last pizza you’ll ever have /j

The worst pizza I ever had was when I was a kid and we took a trip to Italy and my parents got me some from a street vendor. The problem is it was American-style pizza and the Italians didn’t know how to make American-style pizza.
The second-worst pizza I ever had was St. Louis style pizza at an Imo’s, which is the way to have it, and it is fucking foul.
The third worst pizza I ever had was in Cozumel, Mexico. They put slices of tomato on it instead of tomato sauce, but did the rest of it the American way. Bleah.
Cheddar, Swiss, and provolone with a shitton of sodium citrate. That’s a combination I don’t think I’d go for. Sounds like having American cheese on a pie.
Has north Korea started marketing themselves on lemmy?
Honestly if you’re living in a Western country, you are a victim of major anti North Korean propaganda that goes all the way back to the Korean War.
Like, North Korea is nowhere near as bad as people think, and it’s people are fairly happy, yes the government censors and controls media, but it also creates a unified and strong society with far less division than all these Western countries tearing themselves down the middle about which party is less evil.
It’s mind-boggling how you and others like you (assuming you aren’t just a bot or being paid to say this stuff) can say/comment/post this stuff when there is SO MUCH EVIDENCE proving it wrong.
From Western media in English. You’re in a cultural and linguistic bubble online where people who think like you ( or within an expected range of dissenting opinions ) post and respond.
The ideas and values you see and even have fall into a range that believe it or not is different in other communities, often segregated by language.
It’s hard to explain if you’re a monolinguist, but the language you speak includes ideas and cultural nuance for idea that doesn’t often cross the language and cultural boundaries.
Don’t forget that North Korea’s leader is very dear to the whole population and incorruptible, unlike evil South Korea’s leaders who were always super evil and corrupt and everything.
…
You’re asking why the dear leader is the only fat person in North Korea, especially when everyone else looks malnourished? Haha, funny person, off to jail you go.
