    Some random asshole on the internet had a similar challenge when it came to not generalizing 300,000,000 people and sadly failed their challenge :'(

    The only wrong part of this meme is the implication that burgers would even try to not blame foreign meddling.

    No you don’t understand, it wasn’t 80 years of fascist power consolidation and continual capitalist cannibalization since the 70s, It is all Putin manipulating social media causing the material conditions in the Global North. One thing is for sure, no one wrote a book in the nineteenth century describing this exactly.

      You don’t understand, the U.S. was sold to Russia in 2016, then it was reclaimed and thanklessly saved by our harm-reduction, lesser-evilism enjoyer (very wholesome), then it was hopelessly sold back again to Russia just recently…

        I would argue that the British Empire and Belgium were pretty fucking evil long before the US came into existence.

          After WW2 most of the worlds imperialism, death and destruction and theft has shifted. The main perpetrator went from being Europe to the US. With Europe remaining complicit of course.

            That’s a fair point. The US empire expanded tremendously after all the war profiteering from WW2, which allowed for the evil that we see today.

      No, he’s an American citizen. Or are American liberals full ‘blood and soil’ now?

    It’s not necessarily foreigners, but rather billionaires that are the problem. They bought off and corrupted government officials long ago, and directed them to perform heinous acts to line their pockets further. The rich have got to be stopped in order for things to get better. I’d prefer to simply tax them out of existence, but there are other means available…

      The US was founded on slavery and genocide / conquest of hundreds of indigenous nations. It’s rotten to the core.

        Yeah, and many of those founders were rich businessmen who didn’t want to pay taxes to the king of England. This is a human problem, not a national one.

          They were pissy that the king made it illegal to expand westward and exterminate all of the indigenous people. They were all “no, actually, the British Empire isn’t evil enough. Let’s make an even bigger and eviller empire than the [at the time] most evil empire on Earth.”

          This is a human problem, not a national one.

          It is a national and class problem, not a human one. Human nature is a bs concept invented to sell the status quo.

          George washington, franklin, jefferson, madison, all the founders were slave-owning colonizers who explicitly modelled their country after ancient Rome.

          It’s not a human problem, these were specifically evil people who did not share the same values as the people they murdered and enslaved.

          Most countries were not founded in this way.
