Honestly if nothing else comes from lemmy, we at least got Konsi out of it. It's all worth it now.

Love Konsi! She deserves to be the new meme format.

Yes, which is why it won't happen

Whataboutism, for 100 please.

We all know the US does bad things. We can say it. That's not in question.

What is frustrating is when tankies deny obvious facts like this, and think that "but but America" somehow means that totalitarian dictatorships are justified in the shit they do.

Good luck with life dude. Hope you find happiness in a way that doesn't harm others.

Does Russia fund groups to spread misinformation online?

Unchecked for... Hours?

Hours??

That's fucking amazing that they can get it down so fast! Honestly they should advise Facebook or something on how to not leave misinformation up for years. Hours is actually incredible.

Only when the evidence says so ?

Dude that's so frustrating, that sucks. Is the wait for an interview for a visitor visa to the US still like 9 months?

I was in a similar situation for a while. It sucks.

I just want to say that you are laying out the facts perfectly. Like yeah of course the US has problems, but I can publicly walk around Washington DC saying "Fuck Joe Biden, He looks like an old emaciated Piglet" and have no fear of political retribution.

Freedom of speech is something we still generally have.
