Bullshit? It's like comic book super villan axis of evil bad. Hard to even make hyperbole about how bad the US is. Are you living in Israel perhaps? That's the only way I could see maybe by comparison not thinking everything the US is doing is just horrendous.

The government is. What did I do as a Native American just trying to live my life and not voting for the current administration? And what does that have to do with cars?

Not attacking you, no one was. The cartoon is a charicature that is representative of common American views. You are in a shit hole country and the heartland of America is full of uneducated hate filled bigots that represent a strong enough voice to shape the government into what it is.

Don't take it personally. It's not like everyone in Israel is an asshole either, but as a country, total shit hole.

Lemmy is big on tankies, and they often make assumptions about how the US and people there are.

[–] TheparishofChigwell@sh.itjust.works 1 points 2 weeks ago (1 children)

Assumptions not only consistently backed up with locally sourced data but also very much agreed upon by almost every thinking person both in and outside of your asshole of a country

The only Americans I want to meet are natives. The rest of you are either descendants of religious fruitcakes or their sycophants, even if not by choice

Oh and Afroman I would like to meet him, his new music is a breath of fresh air

I'm being confrontational here. Rise up you tired masses, and win back our hearts.

Sycophants are sycophants, the data just shows statistics. But never would I pay a dollar of tax to what is arguably the most aggressive and terrible country to exist. A failed experiment that spits on the great minds that conceptualized the free State. Corruption for so long, that claiming democratic decisions to be the culprit is a farce.

America wants slavery back, never let it leave even.

Cue SOAD prison song
