Just owning up to being a piece of shit lmao

You can be against Russia and the war on Ukraine and still realize that the majority of Russian citizens didn't ask for this and don't want it.

It's the same thing as hating all Americans when they invaded Iraq and Afghanistan (and then overstayed by a decade and a half).

But nuance is a little too much to ask for right? Just need to be on the hate train 24/7.

Lol, let the xenophobia flow through your down votes. This is what you get for having a normal take. Americans love to hate other populations based on what their corrupt governments do. Ignorance is life here.

and does not exist to create profits unless interfered by with politicians.

Yeah, because there is definitely no group of people becoming absurdly wealthy off of the military industrial complex and invasions of foreign countries with valuable resources /s

It also exists "to be interefed with by politicians" by its nature.

This is the dumbest thing I've ever read. Thanks.

Interesting to see all the offensive campaigns going on from Ukraine.

Oh yeah, I'm sure clown is technically correct about the term and definition of recession. The people losing are definitely the people who are being priced out of groceries and homes. Acting like everything is fine and the economy is great is pretty fucking tone deaf.

Attrition is a powerful factor often forgotten in war.

Lemmy armchair 5 star general recently completes Sun Tzu's Art of War and thinks things are being forgotten about military tactics.

They're wealthy enough to be able to absorb the increased cost without noticing while going "ACK-shually" to anyone who isn't wealthy enough to aborsb the cost increase without noticing. Arm chair economists are fucking cancer.

Great backup strategy lmao "put them all in one place what could go wrong"

Good example of cyber crime causing bankruptcy.

So brave of you to take such a moral high-ground. Convince me I'm wrong that we would all be better off as a country if the slaves who built the south owned the south after they were freed (obviously their previous masters would not just stand by and watch this happen).

Instead we limp along fighting a constant culture war of racism with literal white supremacists having invaded all forms of government and law enforcement, because we didn't end them once and for all when we had the chance.

Unfortunately, your point of view won out back then and brought us this shit hole of a political stage in which we now live. So you can at least feel proud of that. It's not like the country wasn't already founded on literal fucking genocide. You're fine to prosper off of those mass killings. Hypocrite.

Edit: don't you think it's sad the chattel slavery racists got the pass and the literally innocent native population got the barbarity? Fuck your perspective.

Maybe not let them vote for 100 years, extended jail sentences while we rebuilt without them or something...

If we let them live just to oppress them because we were too weak-willed to defeat our enemy in the first place, then their later generations will be much more likely to rebel and continue the cycle of bullshit.

Clearly we had no issues stomping out the natives who we stole the land from.

Username checks out. Also fuck landlords if this was posted unironically.

Cue strong masculine arms embracing meme

Kermit the frog sounding mother fucker, lord I hate this dude lmao. He has to be one of the most punchable people in existence, next to Ben Shapiro.

At least bag a few cops on your way out, right?

You literally won't fucking care if you're dead lol?

Honestly, the only right thing to do after the civil war was to murder all the southern secessionists and give all of their wealth and land to the slaves.

The only reason we have this special brand of conservatism in the United States is because we agreed to be buddy-buddy with extreme racists over repairing our relationship with the slaves.

The south, and by extension the Republicans who give it power, is a cultural cancer on the world that needs to be stomped out forever.

Yes, we are tired of being exploited.

Productivity has been on a rocket to the moon since the beginning of the industrial revolution, so centuries.
