Who the fuck emigrates to Europe as a hardcore American fascist? Seriously? What the actual fuck?

[–] MisterOwl@lemmy.world 99 points 21 hours ago (1 children)

Spreading the plague, as insects are wont to do.

As an American, I would like to apologize profusely for the rank idiocy of my fellow citizens.

[–] MisterOwl@lemmy.world 8 points 16 hours ago

No need for an apology here, I too am beyond mortified by what my country has revealed itself to be. I do sincerely hope the rest of the civilized world resists the ideology we seem to be exporting before it's too late.

We have plenty of fascists here. It's not like the US have a monopoly. We don't quite let them run the show yet, but we're certainly working on it.

[–] Rothe@piefed.social 27 points 20 hours ago (1 children)

Yeah, but a really big part of the MAGA platform is hating on the "communist" and "woke" "yuropoors". She must really really hate it here.

Because we don't have regular mass shootings in schools because we don't give every single person the money for a ticket to a gun show a gun and where we do, we legislate that they keep their gun in a gun safe. You know, like the rest of the world...or the USA in 1792.

As a Canadian, I would very much like some sort of barrier between my country and the United States. We've got our own brand of crazy up here and have absolutely no need to import any junk from the USA.

[–] klemptor@startrek.website 61 points 19 hours ago (3 children)

Build a wall, make the USA pay for it

(Kidding, mostly.)

I remember the exact day they closed up the college with fences and the look on the face on the children who started to feel like prisoners. I also remember the day they started to locked all doors but one to inconvenience potential invaders in high school forcing surveillance on who's coming and who going on grown teens.

Gotta say, thats a pretty good burn.

[–] Blackmist@feddit.uk 16 points 18 hours ago (4 children)

Most British schools have bars to keep the kids in.

There was an incident in Dundee recently that far-right knuckle-draggers (like emerald mine nepo-baby Elon Musk) tried to pass off as a 12 year old schoolgirl pulling a knife and fighting off an immigrant rapist, and it turns out she was just tooled up and threatening random strangers.

Shots fired

Have you heard of "induced demand" courtesy of the FuckCars community?

Well, the same applies to violence.

If you have police on campus people subconsciously expect violence. It's a self-fullfilling prophecy. The more security theatre you add, the more actual security you'll need.

Normalizing shootings by giving them such media attention also doesn't help, if the prospective shooter craves it. Neither does the fact that it occupies a large part of the US public consciousness.

Some kids do it because others have already, and because school shootings are such a hot media topic.

And we don't have people walking around with guns (yet).
