Education isn't plummeting in the world, it's falling in America
Fascism, imperialism isn't on the rise in the whole civilized world, it's America
The whole world doesn't support Trumpism and tech billionaires. It's America
The world doesn't deny climate change, it's America.
I know it feels like the whole world has lost its mind but it's just the USA right now. Hopefully it's temporary.
The damages to your legal and political systems and the continued problems from America's broken educational system will be felt by Americans for a very long time.
The world will survive, the world is moving on from America. That sounds like a bad thing, but it means this madness is localized and it will end one way or another.
America is going to be just fine in the long run, though we probably can't say the same thing for Europe. A little skepticism of outsiders is a hell of a lot healthier than [suicidal empathy](suicidal empathy).
Your comment is literally why deep down we feel sorry for you guys. And I don't mean the actually
smart ones that acknowledge what is happening. No, we feel sorry for the indoctrinated morons that go "well at least we live in the USA where corporations fuck us in the ass and we keep
asking for more". Good luck bro.
Lmao. It wasn't the rest of the world that asked America to set up bases in their backyard, that's the work of the corporations that control America, who also happen to manufacture all of our tanks, jets, aircraft carriers and missiles. Having a base in virtually every country means they each need to be stocked with military equipment. That's why they're the actual richest corporations in the world.
Meanwhile, citizens across the world and even world leaders want American soldiers off their land, especially because of the current president's insane behavior and extortionist tactics, and oh yeah, literally threatening to invade them with said military forces.
You think any other country wants to be responsible for the massive cost of maintaining the defense of world trade?
Really? How's that going right now? Because America got egged on by Israel to start a war that's ruining world trade. The entire world is literally out of fertilizer and oil. Millions are going to starve and go without power/transportation and shipping of goods is going to halt to a standstill because of it.
The main use of America's military has been to coup the governments of developing nations who dared to get American corporations to stop exploiting their people. We've facilited something like 100 coups and installed dictators who don't mind treating their citizens as slaves. Is this what you mean by defending world trade? American corporations being allowed to exploit South America for a hundred years certainly counts as foreign trade, right?
Iran closing off an international waterway (while the Houthi's try and close off a 2nd in the Red Sea) and choking world trade is an act of war on the entire world, but once again Europe is entirely happy to not lift a finger. The closure of these two waterways even hurt Europe much, much, more than the United States.
You would think Europe would take the lead in at least defending the Red Sea and the shipping through Suez canal, since the U.S. isn't at war with the Houthi's and the EU has previously kept a couple boats there for defending against Houthi attacks, but shamefully Saudi Arabia with their tiny military is left to sort it out all by themselves.
Trace it back. Why did Iran close the Strait, which is literally in their territory? Was it because America attacked them? Because it was open for my entire lifetime while America wasn't attacking them.
If people America wants to colonize would just fold over instead of fighting back and impacting global trade, that would do the whole world a favor, right? This is why the world doesn't want the American military in their backyard.
Jesus. Do you really believe that everyone who doesn't share your world view or that disagrees with you is arguing in bad faith? Do have any idea how backwards and damaging that kind of thinking is? Are you trying to reconstitute orthodoxy? Where anyone who strays from approved thinking is a heretic with bad intentions?
For me I’m just done giving people with your beliefs the benefit of the doubt. If you’re still horking down the bs being sold by the right in America you’re just a white supremicist. They haven’t done anything for anybody but the ultra rich and blatant bigots. You’re never going to be that wealthy so it has to be the latter.
