“I’m so much more communist than you that it overflew and now my takes align perfectly with capitalist propaganda”

Can we get a year when the US did embody those ideals?

Let 100 Reddits bloom.

On the other hand, you seem to prefer to listen only to what the governments in red say:

I’m curious what do you think the ‘Uyghur thing’ is.

“The government plans to begin sending killer drones after you!”

[…the rest of the article…]

“I urgently need you to call your government representative and tell them you think that’s bad; also vote”

The point is those “non-lethal” methods only work because they are backed by “lethal” ones.

Makes even more sense once you realize that the inquisition and witch hunts were deeply intertwined with the forceful establishment of capitalism

I honestly don’t expect to find examples of all three in this comment section. The libs are not OK.

You can get !memes@lemmy.ml to upvote a lot of anti-imperialist sentiment, but they usually draw the line at the Nazi American Treaty Organization.

Curious.

Obviously those are fake communist numbers, can’t trust them!

And besides, people in those countries can’t suicide because the evil regime would gulag their whole family for two generations!

And actually, higher suicide rate in capitalist countries just shows they have more personal freedom/are more democratic!

Most of the Zionists would leave of their own volition the moment the apartheid system is abolished and any semblance of equality established. That’s what happened in South Africa.

Stalin was a US president now? That’s news to me

You should ask yourself why are you so eager to believe those ridiculous things about Designated Enemies of America™

the first character does in fact mean “good” or “alright” (here used in the sense of the exclamation OK) and the other two form the phrase used to express “come in” (like answering a door knock)

The US only joined the war opportunistically and because Japan was stupid enough to drag them into it.

Ever heard of the guy named Harry Truman (I’m sure he wasn’t anyone too important)? That’s what he had to say about WW2:

If we see that Germany is winning we ought to help Russia and if Russia is winning we ought to help Germany, and that way let them kill as many as possible, although I don’t want to see Hitler victorious under any circumstances.

The Soviets did the majority of the fighting against the Nazis and the Chinese againt Japan.

Brought to you by The Human Rights Watch, that voraciously peddled the “babies thrown out of incubators in Kuwait” to justify American Intervention™

Sure, they experienced their country go from one of the top three poorest countries on earth to a top two economy in just a couple generations, but the reason they support their system must be because they just don’t know better.

You really think you’re the first one to cope with that argument?

Support for government in China: is the data accurate?
