You only say things are fine bc it doesn’t affect you personally that much. Also please stop claiming that Biden has improved anything other than AIPAC’s grip on our tax dollars.

No I want both of them to unalive, preferably as violently as possible. Unemployment is a vastly flawed metric that doesn’t account for underemployment or discouraged workers, and real wages would be significantly down if the government was accurately measuring inflation, which they’re intentionally not doing so they can continue to pretend that everything’s fine.

I grew up in Ohio and seen a million places just like this, so I must reiterate the original question of wtf do you think Michigan looks like lmao

The economy is booming

For who? The American people are struggling. Meanwhile the wealth gap is wider than it’s literally ever been and Biden is too busy bombing brown children to give a shit

The problem it was never a joke, it was always barely conscious retards saying “Let’s go Brandon” thinking it was some kind of clever inside joke and that no one knew what they were actually saying

Oh no, it’s so hard to come up with different words to get the pretty image I want!!1!1!1!!1! It’s not hard, you’re just a dumbass who thinks your effort is more valuable than it is

What internet are y’all living on where shitposting was never creative or interesting?

My fault, I didn’t know I was talking to Yuri. Sorry for wasting my time talking to you

I mean personally what bothers me about it is that it’s all AI-generated. Personally seeing an AI image just kills any potential humor. Even the lowest effort of slapping two images on top of each other in PowerPoint would be preferable. And in fact the lack of effort in and of itself can be funny there too. But there’s nothing creative or interesting about asking an AI image generator to make a funny image imo

You literally said in your post that America is not that bad and that there’s somehow a world of difference between different states, I’m just stating facts about how everything about those statements is bullshit. You can be mad about that if you want but you can’t claim it’s not that bad here when it’s literally worse than every developed nation

I’ve almost never felt like a European was talking down to me. If you feel like you’re experiencing that often, maybe there’s a reason. I know self-reflection is hard for you, our school system propagandizes our children to never do such a thing, but I believe that you can change for the better.

I mean if you wanna play this game, our public education also is not up to the standards of those countries, unless you’re comparing to Bosnia instead of Germany for some odd reason. Yes, especially in those states you mentioned. Also those states are still subject to the American healthcare system. And those states, possibly excluding VT, have a much higher rate of poverty and homelessness than any developed nation in Europe. All of these things are enough to destroy your argument by themselves, but when added up you have no legs to stand on

I find it hard to believe that Vermont Colorado and California even fit in with Western European standards considering the absolute lack of any useful public transportation in any of those states. Even NY only resembles Europe in NYC, upstate NY is some of the worst parts of the US to live in.

American here, these discussions have absolutely no bearing on anything. The US propaganda machine will keep churning regardless of what any of us think, our lawmakers are only doing the bidding of the corporate ruling class and if they try to go against that grain they’re blackballed from politics basically forever. I’m glad some Europeans see through the propaganda but many non-Americans truly don’t understand how bad it is here and still to this day move here seeking “freedom” that no longer exists (and arguably never did). Honestly the guy who made this post is at best a bad faith troll parroting twenty year old talking points to distract people and piss them off. Anyone with access to Google should know that the cultural distinction between the bay area and Chicago are smaller than the distinction between Sussex and Manchester. Calling OP a fucking dumbass is both an understatement and unproductive, but it’s no less productive than any comment actually trying to change OP’s mind about such an uneducated opinion.

Yeah totally. But if you dare even insinuate that Japan was anything other than a victim of WW2, the public outcry is so massive that you will be forced to publicly apologize and denounce your previous statement

The lack of imperial Japan in this image is disturbing

I worked as a cameraman in college for about a year and a half. Your producer can see every angle from every camera simultaneously. So depending on the producer, you’d either get chewed out or get big laughs for doing this. But people still did it all the time regardless

Do you live somewhere where growing is legal? How did you get started? I’m interested in self growing but idk where to start, and where I live it’s not exactly allowed

I mean, Marvel and Star Wars do both suck under Disney, and in fact Disney has been the leading horse in Hollywood’s decline over the past 10 years. But it doesn’t really have anything to do with “wokeness”, moreso bad writing and painting critics of said bad writing as racists/sexists just bc of ppl like this guy

I’m not arguing that the people are to blame, obviously it is malicious intent on the part of the system. But the system alone is not strong enough to cause such a change, the people had to be willing and responsive to the treatment. Ignoring personal wrongdoing in favor of wholly blaming the greater evil, while justifiable, is not conducive to actually improving your own view of yourself. Nor is it realistic to view the world from such a black and white lens. The nuance is often lost on most people, and yet the nuance is where everything important lies.

I’ve been suicidal since the age of 10 years old, believe me everything you say is not news to me. The governments are part of the system that subjugates us, obviously they wouldn’t give a fuck about us killing ourselves. And the system is designed to destroy, so the fact that it’s bringing about our destruction shouldn’t be considered a failure of the system. It’s working as intended. For the same reason every election is a farce, you shouldn’t just be overwhelmed and give up. You should feel angered and empowered by your sense of self, your understanding of humanity’s precarious position, and surround yourself with people who think like you.

That’s the first step to “mutualist organization”. Which, obviously, takes time. Just like it took time for those in power to build this system in the first place. They felt it worthwhile to build a system capable of subjugating the world and compelling its subjects to suicide. But you don’t feel it worthwhile to resist and destroy that system. You just give up and say it’s not worth the effort.
