I am a Black person you absolute twat. Caring about my own life is not “whataboutism” and it’s fucking ghoulish for you to discount my life because it’s more convenient for you.
Get bent.

Someday I would really love to hear a breathless tale about how bad the Soviet Union was, that doesn’t involve something the United States did to Black people. But I don’t think any country has ever treated its citizens as badly as the US treats Black people.
You’re really showing your ass when you get upset about human rights abuses from your global competitors, but don’t care when your allies do the same. Pull the plank out of your own eye.
Note to self: Consider marketing Gar fish to asexuals like the trans ladies have Blahaji.


Some subset of Europeans seem to enjoy rubbing American problems in our collective faces.
On the one hand, I get it. Americans have been jerks for centuries, and in modern history we’ve been rich jerks. On the other, it’s unlikely that snark on Lemmy is going to reach a titan of American Imperialism. The same jerks are taking advantage of all of us.
This comment would work so much better without the misogyny. Hating evil people because they’re evil is so easy to do.
I trust the rainbow unicorn who prevents demons from stealing your shoes with my life. And my shoes, but I think that goes without saying.


This argument is the knee jerk reaction to any tax proposal and should be laughed out of town as it has never ever actually happened.


This COMMUNIST thinks building PLAYGROUNDS will solve the LACK OF PLAYGROUNDS?! Gadzooks, what fooferaw! Communists are so silly! Let the free market provide playgrounds.


Then we have to stop that, don’t we.
Stop rolling over in advance.


This has not been adjudicated by anyone. You can say “the US doesn’t consider it to be an illegal order”. Maybe there is some JAG letter somewhere that says helicopters are not required to accept surrender. But there is nothing that precludes trying everyone involved for war crimes.


Yes. If Americans haven’t proved they’re generally racist and Nationalistic, I don’t know what else it would take.
It sounds like you’re trying to make a gotcha, but it’s quite fair to say a member of the military who murders Venezuelans at whim may still balk if ordered to kill white American.


We’ve already had decades of massive corruption and general enshittification. Nothing stopping us from making things better.


Nothing could make me believe this guy is guilty.
I didn’t have the stew that makes you go blind for one day, so I substituted beef broth. My daughter didn’t go blind. One star.


Have you ever considered that different people can interpret things differently? Why are you jumping down someone’s throat for clarifying an ambiguous title?


Because his deadline was today and his sim hadn’t arrived. “Waiting an extra day” is not an option.
I guess I can cut the bad parts off.

Regulatory capture is the end stage of capitalism. The rich buy the government and clear away any protection we have against them.
Not one of you imbeciles read my point.
