    Kinda crazy how democrats now are just like: “Yeah, I eat a plate of shit. I don’t like it, but they told me that was the only option. So I did it, I’m proud of it, and anyone else should be ashamed to not be eating shit like me.”

    Obligatory US troop copypasta


    You see american choppers in the bright blue sky, hundreds and hundreds of screaming american soldiers drop from it, you look across the field and see the tanks rolling in. You hear a loud explosion and realise that the shrine you have protected for thousands of years with tooth and nail is destroyed by the empire, you come to the realisation that this is very probably the end of your people who’ve struggled to survive all these centuries.You realise that very soon there is going to be a river of blood of your people here; white phosphorus and depleted uranium will be shot very soon, deforming babies for decades to come, and millions of your people are gonna be killed. Your millennia old language and religion will be wiped out, you’re very likely the last of your kind.

    Suddenly, an American soldier kicks you down, puts his foot on your neck and aims his standard ar-15 on the side of your head all while screaming; you realise you’re gonna die, and you won’t have to see the destruction of your community that you fostered so carefully all these centuries for.

    Just before he pulls the trigger, you think to yourself, “To be fair to him, he probably had a low GPA in highschool and didnt have a health-care, those are notoriously hard to get in America”.

    This thread is being targeted by a lot of no-content “correct the record” fediverse accounts, upvoting pro-genocide US democratic party and Israeli talking points. Please report them so we can ban them ASAP.

    Thank you to all the posters below doing great work debunking them.

    Now go do your fucking job developing the Lemmy software, because this software is full of issues and the grownups are talking about important issues that actually have a point.

    Leaving this comment up to show the titanic levels of entitlement and arrogance from the anti-communist crowd.

    Even open source devs only exist to do free labor for them, we’re not people to them.

    I’m actually very sympathetic to this. What the US did, and continues to do, is far worse than what the fascists of the 1920s-40s attempted.

    The Nazis and Japanese fascists tried (and failed) to acheive what the US sucessfully did: the colonization and eviction of hundreds of native peoples, and clearing of an entire region for the “master race”. All under a far more stable form of government for colonialism : bourgeois democracy.

    Lebensraum failed, but manifest destiny succeeded.

    Not only that, but committed countless other atrocities, unparalleled in history.

    What that means in the American system is we vote against liberals in the primaries, and we vote for them against the fascists.

    The democrats are also funding this genocide:

    There was no Alligator Auschwitz under the Democrats.

    The democrats expanded these immigrant prison camps. Some stats from the Obama era:

    Guantanamo Bay wasn’t a concentration camp for immigrants under the Democrats.

    The democrats didn’t close their torture camp in Cuba either.

    It’s dead or empty accounts from a lot of different servers, not just lemmy.world. I just banned like 20 of them.

    They use api tools to target certain accounts for downvoting.

    Content manipulation on the fediverse is gonna be a big issue for the foreseeable future, especially to push pro-US foreign policy points.
