Ah yes, this again.
Komrads, this is a waste of time. I do not see you, the Russian people, as the enemy, so why do you see me, an American, as one?
We must band together, and we must fight them. All governments must answer to us, the people.
If you’re European, then disregard this. You might just be incredibly stupid or gullible. Hey, I actually have some acquaintances with red hats I know you might love! Let me introduce you!
I’m an American who lived in the south, I"m just not white.
The South are my enemy, and probably always will be, a culture wholly founded and centered on racism should be the enemy of the world.
Hitler wrote about how they were the model to follow in Mein Kampf, and the Nuremberg laws are just Jim Crow with his name at the top.
This is the cyberpunk timeline coming together. We don’t get the cool tech or outfits until 2077
You can wear the outfits now! They just won’t be cool for another half-century.
Isn’t the story playing in 2077? In the storyline, the tech looks pretty advanced, so I guess early stage stuff should come soon.
This isn’t the confederacy that’s taken over, this is a hostile acquisition by corporations. The key difference is that while there’s a blatantly racist tone to the current administration, it’s all a cover to make the racist conservative block feel like they’ve won, while the corporations get all the deregulation they want, and everyone who is not wealthy is getting their pockets cleaned and their right to complain removed.
“If you can convince the lowest white man he’s better than the best colored man, he won’t notice you’re picking his pocket. Hell, give him somebody to look down on, and he’ll empty his pockets for you.” -President Lyndon B. Johnson
Yep, this is a class war, and the rich are winning.
They’re winning because the South are and have always been the ultimate class traitors.
Hitler wrote about Jim Crow with praise in Mein Kampf, the Nuremberg Laws just have his name written in at the top.
The main reason they voted for him? https://www.cnn.com/2025/01/29/politics/executive-actions-trump-school-choice/index.html
They got one of their greatest wishes back, it’s why they’re celebrating, they finally broke desegregation.
They can only see a class war as a race war, it’s their nature, and the only thing they have cared about since the founding.
In a war there are (at least) two sides that are fighting. This is more like a massacre.
Murica rolled over with a whimper
Denigrating an entire people is a fascist move.
Rdit: lol, already at least two people are cowardly down voting this. Definitely not fascist!
Our mistake is foolishly assuming our opponents had shame.
And a “take me daddy”

I’m with you, my friend… I’m with you. I’m sorry, for you and for me. But this is our lot in life, regardless of who and where we are.
It will get better… Some day.
everyone let it happen. no one stopped it.
I actually helped it happen. As an American that voted against Trump in three elections, I actually thought the other day “hey, these guys might actually not be total and complete evil and awful pieces of shit… I’ll support them!”
And that’s what some idiots think. So, there you go, dumbasses. Leave this place and die on the same pyre as Trump, please. The world has no room for ignorance and cowardice. Nothing is more cowardly than blaming the victims alongside the oppressors. You are no better than Trump or Elon.
A better way to look at it is that tech companies were quietly siding with Trump before the election and pushed a massive amount of disinformation on social media to heavily influence the election in favor of their guy.
This might sound wrong in the context of this current week, and downturn in the stock market, but I’ll bet money that every major corporate C-suite has had a presentation on how much they stand to profit long term from Mango Mussolini. They are about to get their wildest wet dream: company towns free from regulation, and all the tax breaks they could ever imagine.
this doesn’t change the fact that no one stopped it. this entails that everyone allowed it (some even encouraged it, as you pointed out).
That is putting a whole lot of responsibility on a people who never actually had control over government and elections, and it ignores the blatent media manipulation and information war that’s been waged against U.S. citizens for decades.
you don’t need to control the government or elections to disallow the election. I am not taking any blame from the media, either. I am just being a bit pedantic about the term “allow”. for comparison, when someone accuses me of leaving the lights on, I point out that they left them on too, as did the neighbors, police, and president.
when something is undone, it’s because no one did it. everyone didn’t do it.
see you are on the jailers side in all this
plenty of canaries like myself putting good roots based efforts in and always has and will be
our efforts are not battled against by citizens but our overlords
Youre bringing a notepad to a gun fight. You gotta sink to their level!
If we sink to their level, who are we? We then have given our last inch… And nothing remains.
baby, I’m an anarchist
no group of votes decides anything in the United States because voting is a fantasy perpetuated by the tech and religious oligarchs that really run this country in order to continue the football politics charade
blaming your fellow sick because of no healthcare, polluted due to corporate plus military pollution, under educated because of an extremely underfunded education system, rights stomped in the mud citizens is only doing our jailers work for them
if we all rise we can all rise
quit being the crabs that pull the crabs almost free from the bucket back in
How exactly is voting a fantasy? All elections are rigged?
In the sense that it’s a two party system, yes. The ruling class only gives us the illusion of choice.
The choices are rigged. You can’t vote for change if change isn’t on the ballot… The best sounding politician in living memory was voted in. and we got…(Checks notes) increased drone bombing and sold out to the insurance companies.
Regarding insurance companies, you’re blaming Obama which is absolutely bullshit. Republicans are the reason for all those shortcomings
They are also to blame, but you see how thoroughly you are convinced that it is “the other guy”? That is the beauty of a rigged two party system. Your republican neighbor is all “Damn Obamacare” when the bill was a Republican design “pushed through congress” by a Democrat. Like a ballet.
I am convinced by the many sources of information I consumed. I watched this happen in real time. Democrats being shitty does not make them equivalent to Republicans. Republicans benefit from that lie.
Honestly, your rhetoric: total crab energy
I just posted a video from a cultural psychologist that talks about this. It’s exactly what you think it is, the hyper-individualism that capitalism cultivates that causes this mentality.
