I assume at this point, the world sees us as the 3rd picture.
Is that Oracle’s Larry Ellison on the right?
Actually the Avengers from Age Of Ultron is appropriate because they destroyed a country fighting an enemy of their own creation and expected everyone to congratulate them for it.
Need Frank Castle in the top photo. Bottom picture should replace center photo, and bottom photo should be replaced by the video of that orangutan driving a golf cart or a photo of a group monkeys, some masterbating and some flinging excrement.
“the americans can be relied upon to do the right thing, once all other options have been exhausted” --paraphrasing winston churchill
We don’t think the world sees us as the Avengers anymore. At this point things are so bad here we’ve stopped thinking (which is different than not caring) about how the world thinks of us. For fuck’s sake our president started a war when we weren’t looking. It’s like riding in a bus the size of a football field being driven by a drunk, that’s what living in America is like.

But you’d be fine with it if he did it while you were looking, of course
My point is that we’re so inundated with terrible news and horrific policy we can’t start to mount an opposition to a specific change before the next horror arises. We had military occupations in our cities which have been forgotten because that was half a dozen scandals ago.
Personally I’ve been in panic mode for a year because I was a government contractor before Trump let Elon Musk lay me off. Due to the economy Trump is directly responsible for the only job I could find pays 1/4 of what I was making with no benefits.
Now there is a war. I’m going hungry.

You didn’t do that under previous presidents either.

Damn, truly nobody has been more mistreated by the US Empire than you. I’m sure the people Gaza would be horrified if they only knew.
Now there is a war.
And apparently it would be ok if it wasn’t started behind your back?
“when we weren’t looking” sounds like a cop out
We were looking, just not there. There was literally no preamble to this war, Iran wasn’t even in the news.
Not like every other administration was harassing them and trying to goad them into war.
What do you mean anymore? Have a look at Wikipedia. They are the asshole neighbours for many decades.
More of you could have gone out to vote against him. More of you could go to more than a one day protest once every few months.
Make May 1st your general nationwide strike with more people than the pitiful efforts that have been seen at this point.
I think something most of the outside world doesn’t understand about the USA, there are very few “us” unless you’re conservative. It’s a hyper individualistic society in an extremely large geographic area. The idea of collective anything is a foreign concept to me and I’m literally in a work union for the first time in my life for the worst job I’ve ever had. Unless my current Union is ok with the strike I can’t afford to skip work. If I didn’t have a union then the striking would be completely out of the question. I’ve been let go from jobs at the drop of a hat growing up in a “right to work state”. There isn’t a social safety net and my neighbors are completely ok with me becoming homeless. People who get to protest I’ve viewed as being privileged beyond my means. Community here is for the privileged and I’m scraping by to survive.
You say this like it was any better before Trump
the us has been doing shit like this for decades. trump simply just made it obvious.
It was more important to teach the democrats a lesson than stop literal fascism for a non-zero portion of us, unfortunately.
The Democrats were literal fascism, genocide apologist
For fuck’s sake our president started a war when we weren’t looking
Russians be like: wow that never happened and here we go again…
It used to be that I hated government, not the people. Now even with people I have to consider there are openly fascist ones supporting Trump.
I’m surprised nobody in the 2nd or 3rd pics are morbidly obese
In space, you’re weightless.
I knew it. I’m surrounded by assholes!
Major Asshole!
Don’t need ya drugs, and we don’t ? ya grandma
I KNEW IT. I’M SURROUNDED BY ASSHOLES!
SUCK SUCK SUCK SUCK
Yo
I want to note that the grandparents of the modern day Americans saved us from oppression and fascism and I/we are still greatly thankful for that.
A lot of this generation of Americans however are a disgrace. A disgrace to their parents and grandparents and to the everything that’s good and decent in the world.
I like to pretend that the people that voted for trump are the descendents of either cowards or people lucky enough not to have fought in WW2.
I can’t imagine decency and morality disappearing from a family’s upbringing in two generations.
America was isolationist until they were dragged kicking and screaming into the war. Churchill was regularly crossing the Atlantic to beg Roosevelt to try to garner enough support to join the war. The American people did not care. The majority were against joining the war.
All the same today, The majority of Americans either support MAGA or are indifferent. Short of some great personal injury such as a Pearl Harbor type event, Americans will continue to be as they are.
The idea that Americans were anti-fascist heroes is propaganda. They were only angry that they got got by Japan.
I’m so sorry that you got your education at a clown school.
you did nothing loser, it was the soviets and the chinese who did that, you piece of shit
The soviets saved the world from fascism, 4/5ths of Nazi deaths were on the Eastern Front. The US took advantage of its new privledged position after World War II to become the world hegemonic empire, which leads us to today. Before World War II, it was and still is to this day a genocidal settler colony.
My grandfather served in the same Americanmilitary who thought it was inappropriate for him to die in the same trench as a black man or for women to wear pants. I’m not really interested in fluffing their generation - they’re perfectly happy doing it themselves.
Who’s “us”, asshole? America has been a genocidal settler colony for centuries
Look up operation paperclip

If you’re talking about WW2 then you’re wrong
