That applies to every country, not just America. I also never meant that to be rude, but as a joke. Yes there are bad people, yes there are rapists, but there are genuinely good people in this world.

[–] Asafum@feddit.nl 2 points 2 years ago (1 children)

Oh absolutely, I was just making a joke that played off of your joke! Sorry if it seemed like a criticism. I took Trumps line about Mexicans and just applied it to Americans :P

Oh, I thought you were referring to my pfp.

Some call it imperialism, the US calls it a good economic quarter.

US government: Wages a never ending war

“Modern problems require modern solutions “

[–] Holzkohlen@feddit.de 3 points 2 years ago (1 children)

War on terror or the war on drugs?

[–] laskoune@lemmy.world 3 points 2 years ago

Yes !

Why tf landlords living from my paycheck to my paycheck?

[–] ilikekeyboards@lemmy.world 18 points 2 years ago (1 children)

Because early bird gets the worm (monopoly over houses) and then beggars can't be choosers

As a landlord, can I ask you what are you doing online? You still have money to pay your Internet bill? That's it! From next month I'm rising the month y'all don't need all this luxuries

[–] SeducingCamel@lemm.ee 2 points 2 years ago (1 children)

Yeah I pay my internet bill too, really justifies the existence of landlords, you're working so hard ticking those rent numbers up

I think OP was being sarcastic

Idk maybe you're misinterpreting it

People are paycheck to paycheck. We have no recourse.

Landlords are month to month. They'll consume us if they need to make things work.

The banks live bailout to bailout at this point. They'll consume landlords if they need to make things work.

The government lives war to war. They'll consume banks die if they can't find other people that they're stronger than who are playing a similar game with their banks, landlords, and people.

This is why we must consume the rich.

Reverse the cycle! Eat the rich!

You know, I see this phrase a lot, but not one of you mfers have actually tried. I wanna see you actually do it.

[–] Grimble@hexbear.net 5 points 2 years ago* (last edited 2 years ago)

The point is that either way, the US government has the corporations "life" in its hands. If they go down, the Fortune 500 bailouts stop. That's when the gun goes off.

I like this meme format, Triangle was a great movie.

So a system that relies on endless growth thought the utiization of finite resources is not sustainable? Who would have thought?

Lmaoooooo y'all would be bitching up a storm if the US wasn't carrying EU defense on its back.

[–] Kichae@kbin.social 6 points 2 years ago (1 children)

What a weird way to spell "compulsively sticking its nose and guns in everyone else's shit".

[–] ShittyRedditWasBetter@lemmy.world -2 points 2 years ago (1 children)

Lmaoooooo yeah Ukraine is just screaming out for help every day from the oppression the US is inflicting on them.

"Please, stop sending us weapons and being the reason we aren't Russia right now!"

Absolutely delusional stuff.

[–] MotoAsh@lemmy.world 4 points 2 years ago (1 children)

Ahh yes, cherrypick an unrelated limited example where the US isn't doing basic imperialism...

Congratulations on being a fucking moron.

[–] Lucidlethargy@sh.itjust.works 1 points 2 years ago

I mean, it's still not an invalid example... Let's be real, without the United States's aid Ukraine would likely be a part of Russia right now. And the going theory is that Russia wouldn't have stopped there.

The US government has done a lot of horrible things, but it's also stepped in at key times when the world needed help.

Per capita, Americans also voluntarily donate about seven times as much to charity as continental Europeans.

America may very well be fucked up, but it is getting tiring seeing the dogpiles here on Lemmy... Like, get real, there are far worse countries out there that deserve this treatment. America does deserve to be held accountable, but it's far from the worst on the list, and it's constantly, regularly harped on. It's just weird... Like, can we start to spread the hate a bit more so it's not just an anti-american circle jerk here?
