Are. You. Fucking. Kidding. Me???
What the fuck America? Honestly. What the actual fuck has happened to your nation.
we’vr had sleeper cells of nazis and bootlickers on “both” sides of the aisles for a century or so because they’re all actually aged capitalists. When capitalists feel like their quality of life and profit is threatened, by labor or technology, they will work toward two things:
Moving the overton window in small steps as they test the waters and then implementing actual fascism in the waters where their tests succeeded.
Notice the areas with martial law are not really big on public ownership of guns or understanding of castle doctrine? That’s on purpose.
This.
Personally I support "The Great Repossession". Time to take back what they stole from the working class. Just take back their assets.
And a few most moths to play.
We never had a true democracy and that fact is coming around to bite us and everyone else in the ass again. We don't have Christian denominations anymore, we have sports teams. We don't have politics, we wage culture war. God damn bless america... I fucking hate it here
The us was never wholly good. Maybe 3/5ths good, at best.
We clearly need help. Will it be from wherever you're from?
What sort of help do you think any country outside of yours can provide?
The same help German citizens got, presumably
That "help" only happened because Germany started a world war
Most countries don't just interfere with other countries' politics... although I know that's a hard concept to grasp for the USA haha
haha 🫤
yeah... I know
WW3 has already started, and if you don't believe me, I can point to the MAGA in your own country. The invasion happened online.
No, it has not. If anything, we're repeating the 30s. The war at the end is not inevitable. And we better avoid it, cause it might be the last one humanity sees if it happens.
Don't worry I'm sure he'll do it soon
