ah yes poor americans are more important than yemeni getting droned. Classic liberal. Not every life is equal I see.

lemmingrad ,

That submissive defeatist mindset lol. "You have to vote for my guy because the other guy is worst, you have no choice.". What if I tell you that's the whole plan? And what about the millions people who politics doesn't align with the liberals? Does their voice not matter?

How can you pretend living in a democracy lol we're not perfect but at least we have proportional representation.

Trump Is Losing It: It is unclear whether Donald Trump has forgotten the precise nature of NATO or whether he ever fully grasped it in the first place. ( www.nytimes.com )

What is clear, however, is that Trump — who ostensibly spent four years as president of the United States — has little clue about what NATO is or what NATO does. And when he spoke on the subject at a rally in South Carolina over the weekend, what he said was less a cogent discussion of foreign policy than it was gibberish...

lemmingrad ,

NATO is the organisation that empowered nazis after the war in the name of anticommunism. Those people practiced political assasination and straight up gangsterism / terrorism. Look up "gladio operation"

But of course as a disguisting american liberal white-winger, you will call me a russian propagandist or something. Go vote for which brand of imperialism you like the most, idiot, you still have blood on your hand.

Socialism never took root in America because people who tried to organize got shot.

Thanks for the laugh, clown. We know why capitalism is superior, it's because of the invisible magic handjob.

lemmingrad ,

There is no hate in saying this is r-worded good old trickle down theory that have been disproved times and times again. Basic economics is like basic biology. Simplistic.

Seriously, I spent 15 minutes watching this crap. I'll never get them back. This is just cruel.

EDIT: the best part is when it stops.

lemmingrad ,

Hum I would disagree.

First of all worker coops are pretty much everywhere.
I could go to college for free and have healthcare because socialists who organized large scale strikes (they sometime then proceed to get shot by operation gladio).
And then, quite a lot of country still pretend to be socialists. Oftentime with very real mutualities who actually helps people.

As a non-american, I am baffled by the american "left" support for a militaristic organisation that empowered far-right network in western europe's intelligence service for the sake of anticommunism. Those people killed socialists politicians here.

lemmingrad ,

Is this irony? oO

lemmingrad ,

The NATO assasinated politicians in my country. If we had had free elections I'm not sure we'd be US allies.

lemmingrad ,

Zizek is the Jordan Peterson of the left.

lemmingrad ,

The reason being that the war never was about attrocities but about sphere of influence?

lemmingrad ,

What's the idea behind this meme? That Russia is against tap-water or that Russia is a third-world shithole?

Because if the later, it reeks of western-white-colonialist supremacy. Blue countries have better infrastructure because they are colonial powers.

Oh and I absolutely drank water in Bulgaria. This is factually false.

Meanwhile, placing the US in the "drinkable country" where this happens is laughable:

lemmingrad ,

Yeah because the first world notoriously doesn't do that /s

lemmingrad ,

Liberals always have been pro-war. It's good for business.

lemmingrad ,

Cuba would like to have a word.

lemmingrad ,

Russian leadership (fascists) is acting in a way that is constantly and actively pursuing war*

If Russia is not a democracy, then people cannot be held responsible for the action of their government. No more then in Dresden or Hiroshima. Especially when Westerners (us, who supposedly, them, pick our leaders) are not held responsible for the atrocities committed by their government. Where are the sanctions for the Iraqi war?

Honestly, it looks like they are preparing the average joe's mind for carpet bombing. Jingoism on all side.

lemmingrad ,

Either the average Russian is responsible for changing their country or the average American is not. You don’t get both.

Yes, exactly, none of them are.

Again, it’s possible to say that what the US did was wrong and still understand that what Russia is doing is also wrong.

What the Russian government is doing is wrong, absolutely. It's not a reason to fall into jingoism and stupid stereotypes.

Bringing the “whatabout” argument at this point is deliberate deflection if you understand that you’re arguing with someone who agrees with you.

But the map is literally placing France and the US in "the good guys". Whataboutism is when you bring out things out of the blue that aren't being disgusted already.

lemmingrad ,

Yeah sorry, it tickles me to see a meme making fun of non-white countries for being unevolved. Sounds like a white f-word to me ;)

lemmingrad ,

It's not politically complex. One side have more UN condemnation than freaking North Korea.

Russia can stop whenever they want and Putin has stated he believes that land to be his right.

So did Netanyahu.

lemmingrad ,

Then we agree. Russia and Israel are bad and the west is bad for supporting the later while buying oil from the Saudi and their hamas-supporting muslims brotherhood..

lemmingrad ,

This time. It doesn't allow you to make fascist meme about how the poorer side of the world is backward and uneducated (which is the subtext of the meme).

lemmingrad ,

Which implies that being "developed" (code for rich) makes you morally right. Which is not the case, as illustrated by the wonderful story of the Iraqi, afghan, Malian wars among other. Where are the sanction for those?

This is basically mocking the poors for the sake of jingoism.

lemmingrad ,

Ah yes, I'm a russian shill. Long live putin and mao and pol pot or something /s

Seriously though, i'm just a guy. The governement of russia is ofc doing shitty thing. It just sucks to shit on people who have nothing to do with politics or whatever.
