Yes, I do. Thats why I'm saying it.
Thank you for your service 🫡
You can't say Death to America, that's a whole continent, maybe even two. You say Death to the USA, or any other derogatory word you prefer using to refer to them.
haha I paused on this for a while when making this I usually write USAmerican but I was trying to mock what the guy in the meme would say and they call themselves Americans lol
I just say Statesian.
It is a double standard I wholeheartedly approve of: us shityanks shouldn't call ourselves Americans, but should take sole offense when someone says "Death to America".
It is only fair.
You know what, I'm gonna say it even more
Marg bar AmeriKKKa
AmeriKKKA delenda est
OP hates america, yet uses an american invention (the internet (invented in 1991(by Al Gore,))) to express that fact.
I’ve never claimed to be intelligent.
my sibling in christ - even if you're joking - pls stop digging 😭😭
A wise man once told me that if you stop digging you are in a hole but if you keep digging you’ll have a tunnel.
Which would you want to be in?
A hole or a tunnel?
definitely a hole duh
I’m kind of sad you didn’t do your typical ‘delete account’ copypasta.
Can you do it so I can feel better about myself?
What a meanie
Your wit is impeccable.

for real; how tf do they have today's highest upvoted post on lemmy.ml?!!!
has lemmy.ml been captured?!
Because it’s okay to take a break to laugh between reading theory.
americans' collective disregard for thier government admitting to such extreme evils is a comedy enough and of the divine kind.
i'm not religious, but i sometimes with i were true so that those evil people committing those acts and then lying about it would meet their comeuppance.

Do you find much of that on Lemmy?
You almost certainly hate China yet used a Chinese phone/PC to make this comment.
I have never expressed a hatred for China before.

Death to amerikkka and 'liberate' their inventions and internet!
Oh no..
How did people take this so seriously, especially on a meme community? (Gore?)

There is an urban legend saying he claimed to have invented the internet. What actually happened was that he was asked in a 1999 interview how he was different from other candidates and replied: "During my service in the United States Congress, I took the initiative in creating the Internet. [...]". He was probably referring to legislative efforts.
I feel like I am watching a recursive meme stuck in an infinite loop and I can't tell who is being sincere vs who is shit posting.
Live stream of my reaction:
just enjoy the confusion
I am am aware of the reference. I guess the lesson here is to accept that I'm old and many others will not.
Sorry for the serious comment (which is not a reply to OP but something I want to share with my fellow audience).
I think there are 3 distinct cases where someone says something and I think, "hey, that's not fair/true/etc" and feel myself getting defensive. Each case has an appropriate response, in my opinion:
-
They are not talking about me as an individual, but making sweeping statements - the person isn't talking to me or about me as an individual, no one is asking for my response or thoughts so I can just move on with my life. Maybe the sweeping statement helps me understand my role in systemic oppression (like by simply being north american) and I can reflect on that, but typically it's more of an awareness/learning thing and not actionable until I learn/reflect more.
-
Same as 1 but + I am not the intended audience - not everything is about me or for me. The intended audience probably has some context I am missing and even if they don't no one cares what my take is, so again just let it go.
-
If they are speaking about me in particular they are a) either right and I'm reacting with guilt or shame, b) having some misunderstanding and we need to come together to solve the conflict or c) someone I have no relationship/community/duty to and no benefit comes from trying to resolve so I can also just let it go.
That's a very mindful observation, thanks!
exactly how you deserve to hear it!
You can't risk alienating the elites what would happen if you turn them off. /s
all the baby fucking/eating/killing; torturing; and forced castrations makes me think that nothing turns them off. lol
Americans need a little genocide at home imo. Maybe they'll stop doing it elsewhere once they experience it themselves firsthand.
They've had a lot of genocide at home, they're just the ones who did it
the usian people are very much like the children of a mafia boss who do not know what their father does for a living, and don’t want to know, but then wonder why someone just threw a firebomb through the living room window.
Sounds like music to my ears 🎶
btw, the images behind the American are from left to right, top down
mai lai massacre in Vietnam, homeless American, lynched American, lapd beating Rodney king
native massacre, lynched American, ku klux klan rally, American bomb dropping
torture in Iraq, American soldier posing with a child they murdered in Afghanistan
massacre in Vietnam, mass grave of native americans, native americans living in poverty, atomic bomb
electric chair, Epstein, supermax prison, fent addict.
You can say that but you can’t say anything bad about Israel
