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.
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
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
Yeah I pay my internet bill too, really justifies the existence of landlords, you're working so hard ticking those rent numbers up
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.
Rejoice! Saturnalia is approaching! The eve of the inversion is near! Peasants shall dine as king's on the flesh of the once-royal!
You know, I see this phrase a lot, but not one of you mfers have actually tried. I wanna see you actually do it.
The meme is from person of Interest. A good police procedural from the point of view of a vigilante and his hacker boss.
Lmaoooooo y'all would be bitching up a storm if the US wasn't carrying EU defense on its back.
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.
Ahh yes, cherrypick an unrelated limited example where the US isn't doing basic imperialism...
Congratulations on being a fucking moron.
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?
