You know. I would try to fight this as a statement if we did not put in our constitution that slavery is fine for prisoners.

This could apply to any number of countries and it’s getting kinda tedious. It’s like a bunch of American teenagers just learned that their history books aren’t telling the whole story and literally cannot stop talking about it. You hit college level history, congratulations, good for you champ.

More likely it’s a bunch of Kremlin and CCP LLMs spreading hate.

Well yeah… in lots of ways.

Good in others, as an Australian who traveled there the average American is great. I just think you’ve been intentionally fragmented and manipulated. So there are large groups of people who want their country to change but cannot seem to find common ground and band together to strengthen those ideas.

Then you have such powerfully rich and crazy groups that seem to be able to rule the narrative

Had to check to make sure I wasn’t on Reddit again.

I had to check too cause “americabadamirite” complaints are basically peak Reddit since the Digg migration and shortly after.

Before then, I feel like I remember it being a lot less defensive about people daring to…criticize America

There’s a huge difference between “lol le dum fat burger chez merica” and commentary about the history of the country and the patterns, systems, and dark truths that made it what it is today. Is there any one element in this meme that you’d argue is false?

War we are pretty bad at it. Like the last time we actually tried we nuked Japan twice. We couldn’t even take over Vietnam since Nixon had a hardon for mao and didn’t want to make him angry. Or that time the un told us not to make an irradiated cobalt dmz in Korea so we ended up with whatever the fuck is going on now.

We are also pretty bad capitalists, unless chronyism is capitalism?

We are also pretty bad at genocides unless we are dragging up stuff from over 100 years ago?

Also, we learned about the genocide of the natives in high school, and this topic is written about extensively by American academics, and I can order books about it freely. Meanwhile, the world’s autocrats build entire generations around denying fundamental history until they’ve twisted themselves in such circles that they need to censore entire portions of the internet to keep up the charade.

To me this meme comes across as fascist , rascist and prejudiced.

You have become 200%, what you supposedly hate so much.

" Beware that, when fighting monsters, you yourself do not become a monster… for when you gaze long into the abyss. The abyss gazes also into you."

No, no… Wait… He has a point.

Little did I know that ripping a bong hit was the same as staring into the abyss. The fascism of it all… I’ve been such a fool.
