A country’s character is made up of the qualities of its people before its government we all know this, he could’ve said government, he didn’t. Don’t cover his ass

Lol right like everyone agrees america has deep deep rooted issues, a culture of violence, and shockingly bad living conditions for some especially considering how wealthy we are.

But if you’re posting on KTT2 from your smartphone in your air conditioned house it’s pretty insensitive to compare your situation to damn near anyone’s in Iran

Yes because you’re using an example of one county being backwards while ignoring the real oppression and violence minorities and partner marginalized classes faced in America in the past and still today. In fact you must’ve lived under a rock during 2020 to miss the very visible protests agianst police brutality and the reactionary response we saw from US government. Again let’s cherry pick or focus on one country so you can sit and claim you’re unbiased while being blissfully or willfully ignorant to the realties faced in your own backyard

As they post in a thread about a man being killed for rooting against his own country in a soccer match because of how bad the regime is.

"Why are we talking about history. I’m talking about the present."

Is the mentality that keeps us in the past

Why must we bring up America in all threads about anything going wrong in other countries? It’s just as racist as saying America should be the world police. Both extremities are terrible.

The thread’s topic alone is against you.

Police brutality isn’t a result of free speech. Nobody is getting gunned down in this country because of what they say or express. Therefore, it’s not a relevant topic to bring up in this thread.

Nobody in America got shot and killed for rooting against America in the World Cup.

This is why socialism will never happen.

Nobody is getting gunned down in this country because of what they say or express.

Ehhh I mean. They are. It still doesn’t mean comparing the two isn’t a pretty privileged take

I’ve seen liberals talk about the history of the US for the last 25 years of my life. Where has that gotten us? The most stringent anti abortion laws since roe v Wade, an increase in violence and police brutality in black communities, the most politically unstable regime in US history, a literal cuckoo celebrity elected as President, and the worst wealth gap ever seen in this country.

How does talking about the history not make us go backwards again?

RIP

Came in with the wrong energy tbh

RIP

When in the last 10 years have you seen a case where someone got gunned down for saying or expressing something?

I would consider being killed for being a minority being killed for expression

That’s not expression. That’s someone’s race. They can’t express their race. It’s just their identity

It’s not comparable to this

You’re an idiot bro if you typed this without being ironic

Ok being killed for your identity is really not better..

Nobody says f*** the US and imply they’re talking about it’s citizens. Be fr

If people were really being killed for their identity, we’d be seeing police constantly killing people of color. It happens very rarely

By comparison, the Iranian police just gunned down 200 people, children included, at a protest rally

It’s not the same and if you really think so, you’re insane

Well like I said the comparison is dumb. But it’s also false to say no one is killed for basically nothing in America

You should ask exactly how the US achieves such a state of affairs

Because the issue is even worse than capitalism

I was lowkey being ironic but now you actually are a clown

You literally have no clue what ur talking about and admit you don’t care to talk about history

Literally just making stuff up in your head and presenting them as facts

Because america and Europe have been the basis and primary motivators for the past almost four hundred years ?

The state of affairs in the Middle East, Africa, Japan, and Latin America are almost entirely attributable to the era of Colonialism.
