Give me any nazi atrocity and I can provide an example of the US doing it, and probably far worse and on a larger scale.

List of US atrocities.

its been known to be worse than germany for hundreds of years, hitler based his concentration camps and the holocaust in part on the american treatment of indigenous people.

they killed tens of millions of people with muskets, 6 shooters, repeaters, and disease, on horses, and trains. all the while enslaving an entire race of human beings in the process. which arguably was the main reason they could enrich and modernize their country in the first place. free labour.

america has always ALWAYS been the bad guy. they just had really really good "marketing" and military strength for the last century.

what is happening now are the final flailings of a dying empire. it will stretch itself thin, bankrupt itself, crash the dollar, fuck the global economy, and be picked apart by oligarchs until mentioning the word "union" gets you shot on the spot, not by a robot police officer, but your fellow "patriot" between spoon fulls of soylent green.

the rot is far too deep, and the purification of chaos is, unfortunately, the only remedy, and an imminant one at that. whether we agree or not, like it or not, its coming, its here. and thats just the way it has to be, apparantly.

any social progress may have to wait a few decades, maybe even centuries depending on the outcome of WW3. if at all.

but, EVENTUALLY, if we survive it. there will be a social revolution, and hopefully that one creates a better life for those alive to live it. likely still just a handfull will enjoy everything life has to offer and more. but maybe, just maybe the masses will take back whats theirs and live fully again.

Considering the country was founded on the greatest genocide history has ever seen and chattel slavery, this should have been the case the whole time.

Can read. Not upset. We probably kill more innocent s since the fall of the third riech then they have.

Not a lot of people think it's fine, but nobody a tually has a clue what to do/ doesn't want to start it

[-] Cowbee@lemmy.ml 16 points 5 months ago

The solution is to organize. PSL already organized protests across dozens of major cities, and is constantly recruiting.

The US Empire is dying, when it finally caves the spotlight will be on the constant genocide, plunder, and warmongering this empire did.

The Nazis were inspired by what went on in America. Genocide, concentration camps, segregation, forced sterilization, taking the children, etc

Tbf no eurocentric history book will mention the invasions and murders in slightly browner countries or the private companies' colonization that follow.

They will just mention cold war mostly.

lol worse than Nazi Germany?

Kids got no perspective nowadays if you thinking this is anything like that

[-] hamid@crazypeople.online 46 points 5 months ago* (last edited 5 months ago)

You have no fucking perspective. As I wrote below half of my family is from a country where US imperial troops are responsible for the deaths of over a million people, destroying one of the oldest centers of knowledge and education, and taking a country previously known for training first-class doctors and sending them around the world to train to a place where people are struggling to survive with a literacy crisis. We already think they’re as bad. If you don’t think they are close to Nazi Germany you sound like white supremacist who doesn’t view people outside US/EU as humans.

[-] ZeroHora@lemmy.ml 22 points 5 months ago

Yeah nazi germany is definitely worse, they killed a bunch of WHITE PEOPLE, there is no worse sin than that.

I hate that our greatest hope is that the guy is 80 and has shit health.

Clearly the people aren't going to actually do anything besides disapproving looks and politely asking him to stop ignoring the law and constitution.

[-] Cowbee@lemmy.ml 28 points 5 months ago

Trump is a symptom of the broader problem. His death isn't the solution, even if it's justice.

Not right now, if we were to look at the US in it's current state today they are far from being worse or near close to nazi germany, but if things continue following their course maybe they get fascist italy status

edit: sorry asians and middle-easterners, my americas-centered brain had forgotten about you.

[-] Twongo@lemmy.ml 16 points 5 months ago

the us murdered far more people than nazi germany. instead of shoving people into death camps they carpet bombed civilian populations or sent their troops. it's not mainly domestic terrorism but terrorism against koreans, cambodians, vietnamese, iraqis, afghanis, palestinians by proxy and many many more.

Not to mention interventions they started back in the middle of the XIX century in central america, that were driven by the manifest destiny ideas. So this is nothing new and that has been happening for more than 100 years.
