I honestly believe the anti American sentiment from Europeans on the internet comes from them hoping the origin of racism and facism is connected more to America than Europe. European facism, racism, and sexism has done more damage than any other group on the face of the earth

All ill say is have no trust in white ppl pushing polices that don't openly benefit themselves and themselves only. If you disagree I have 250 years of american history that backs me up. Universal Healthcare, universal childcare, and minimum wage increase will never happen because a LARGE portion of the American population rather live in poverty than give ANYTHING to someone who's different then them.

If you want class solidarity you'd be better to convince white ppl that helping ppl different from themselves benefits society.

I'll just end it on this quote,

"If you can convince the lowest white man he's better than the best colored man, he won't notice you're picking his pocket. Hell, give him somebody to look down on, and he'll empty his pockets for you." - Lyndon B. Johnson

Wouldn't be the first time

To be fair neither does Europe. Ppl need to stop acting like facism doesnt reach across the Atlantic. Its the literal home of facism. Just Google what Berlin police are doing to pro Palestinian protests

A cop that's eating has more energy to kill someone brown

You mean creating the police in general? No morally adjusted or smart person can join the police. They're not wanted

If you kill a board of directors and chief officers is it only one count of murder since a corporation is a person?

In America you only have rights when they feel like giving them

I mean Europe is the home of facism and literally spread it throughout the world

I tried the read the Bible when I was teenager. Lot immediately put an end to that

Why are you guys always telling this to brown ppl? Brown ppl didnt keep white ppl out of their unions, out of their neighborhoods, or denied them a good education. The main issue with class solidarity is trying to convince white ppl that brown and lgbtq ppl deserve the same standard of living as they do.

Solidarity with who? The part of the country that voted in that facist who dont even recognize reality. I'm not going to feel sorry for a bunch of white folks and latinos who basically voted for him because brown and gay ppl were starting to get treated better. I have no compassion for bigots.

As for democrats and liberal white America they've constantly dropped the ball on solidarity with minorities. If its not obvious im a black dude. Black America has had PLENTY of compassion for others yet theres been practically no solidarity in return. I don't hate everyone else. I just have absolutely zero faith in America doing the right thing. For fuck sake hippies we're preaching peace, love, fighting for civil rights then moved to the suburbs and voted for Reagan.

Well considering there's plenty of documentaries, case studies, and articles written about how poisonous social media and algorithms are i dont have much sympathy for those who don't look into it when we live in an age were information on EVERYTHING EVER WRITTEN DOWN is freely avaliable. Im not going to feel sorry because ppl rather look at cat videos and follow influencers instead of reading an article that tells them without a doubt how fucked up social media is.

It's no different when ppl complained about tv being and idiot box. Just because YOU will watch the Bachelor or Real Housewives instead of Frontline or 60 minutes doesnt mean the medium makes everyone stupid. At a certain point it becomes YOUR responsibility to be an informed citizen.

Ppl are constantly glued to their phones. They're just lazy or have their head in the sand if they don't pay attention to politics.

Always have been

Let them sink and stop letting ppl move to sandbarges off the coast of one of the most hurricane prone places on earth

Alabama does more Alabama things. More at 11

I love the imagery of empty stands because who the fuck wants to hear kid rock in 2026?

Well his policies are already responsible for hundreds of thousands of death, so close enough?

When evil Bender is just as evil as you thought he would be
