They forfeited the right to be called my countrymen when they spat on the founding principles of the nation. They are foreign to the American ideal.

They are foreign to the American ideal.

What ideal would that be? Manifest Destiny, the genocidal land theft from indigenous people followed by enslaving Africans to build the nation?

This is America, and underneath the rhetoric and the eagles, always has been America. You've just been brainwashed into believing otherwise.

And America is the extension of Britain and you know how they are!

Yeah but they don't have an entire world of countries using guns and bombs to tell them that.

Fighting fascism is a whole lot easier when it decides to start a world War, every other instance they just continue on within their own borders.

We're trying to avoid the whole world war part but it'll come if these assholes continue

Unfortunately if a world war comes it will likely be to bomb civilians while the megacorps make deals with all parties to stay clear of their production lines...

Then we blow up the production lines with fireworks if need be.

if the thugs & bombs don't get to us first...

History will be written by the Eric and Donald jrs of the world. 🤢

[–] raspberriesareyummy@lemmy.world 2 points 2 days ago (1 children)

Bold of you to assume they can write.

They'll do it the same way trump "wrote" a book

The founding principles of the nation are might makes right and don't whine, there's no truth nor justice in the world, and the US has behaved exactly that way from their Anglo-Saxon conception by crusading into America annihilating the locals, then enjoying slavery, then destabilising nations around the world post WW2 power reshuffle, pillaging, murdering and raping their way across the land for geopolitical and financial advantages. In the little time it's been a thing, it's accumulated sins for thousands of years. Get real, man, if you know any moral, righteous, prosocial and selfless Americans (maybe yourself included!) they are so despite their culture, not because of it.
