minus-square@WhoRogerlink3•1 year agoWhy is every comment just about the US? Skin color, school shooter drills, actor president, support for Russians by US politicians… Lemmy try something more international: France and Germany have founded the European Union. First Japan, and now China (and Taiwan) and Korea are the technological superpowers. Car industry in the UK basically doesn’t exist anymore. Cuba is still communist af and yet looks like a chill place. Czechoslovakia has split. (Funny how even 30 years after the fact some people don’t believe it, so I can imagine it being inconceivable before.) There are 8 billon people. We still don’t have nuclear-powered flying cars.
