Not even gringos think they have a democracy lmao. And if you do, your opinion of what a democracy is should only be used to consider the opposite.
Preempting the comments: Yes, your cousin who serves to get free college is a fascist too.
See, this is what I’m talking about. Your life isn’t worth more than that of many, many foreigners. It’s one thing to be like “I didn’t know any better and I regret it” and quite another to put on the whole Chris Kyle self martyrdom piece.
Unless I’m mistaken, there’s still other ways to feed and house yourself that don’t involve signing up for the wall street Wehrmacht. Like, I imagine living inside the empire it’s normalized as hell but I don’t think there’s any excuse not to know nowadays.
Statesians having a choice of aiding the big murder machine or having an uphill battle to live in dignity is pretty shitty, but I think that animosity should be directed to the government and not people who think it’s still pretty ghoulish to act like there wasn’t even a choice. People used to go to jail for dodging the draft and some of y’all act like soldiers are all enlisted at gunpoin bc they offer you college and insurance.
Idk chief I think if I needed those things I’d organize my community to demand them first and not go into the “will I kill a bunch of innocent foreigners” lottery.
Germany learned plenty. They learned, for example, that by doing your atrocities in service of the hegemon you’ll be rewarded. What wasn’t okay was doing them while attempting to become the hegemon.
yeah, he sees a kid eating a sandwich he’ll do like roots manuva and slap the bacon out his mouth
This will really upset libs, but don’t worry, they have a working memory of roughly one week so they’ll be alright.

You don’t have to like their domestic policies, but they’ve been more than reasonable in their relationship to the international community. That can’t be said about any government in Western Europe or their rabid dog occupying Palestine.

Anti-Trump resistance is outpacing 2017.2·25 days agoThe fact that he can do all of this and face zero opposition within government and didn’t even get punished once he was out of office (despite popular demand) kind of proves you didn’t have a democracy to begin with.
Where was democracy when Bush’s brother stole the election for him?

Only once violent resistance had forced the Brits away they went “oh by the way it was totally the guy who would have laid down in the street to be flattened by our tanks, in case anyone else wants to try it”

Y’all tried tens of thousands of protests but are giving up at one CEO? That’s a shitty sample size.

Nothing else that happened that week could have explained it, the government has done this so often (without even announcing it to the people they want votes from) that this is for sure the only explanation.

Just because they didn’t personally shoot each and every one doesn’t mean they didn’t willfully create the conditions to starve them or deny them access to essential services.

Lol imagine being so brainwashed that you don’t uncritically believe when USAID funded outlets tell you North Koreans are so
geneticallyintellectually inferior that they honestly believe Kim Il Sung is god, was the best sportsman ever at everything, and he’s immortal now? Dude they literally make them pull trains by hand because they’re so poor, I heard somebody say it!All the hours and weeks and months and years of footage is all faked tho
