Seize the Memes of Production

An international (English speaking) socialist Lemmy community free of the “ML” influence of instances like lemmy.ml and lemmygrad. This is a place for undogmatic shitposting and memes from a progressive, anti-capitalist and truly anti-imperialist perspective, regardless of specific ideology.

Rules:
Be a decent person.
No racism, sexism, ableism, homophobia, transphobia, zionism/nazism, and so on.

You'll be incredibly surprised, if you lived in America, how much exactly our politicians get away with. That includes, fucking over its citizens every waking day.

So there’s nothing to gain from a distraction?

Simple fact is Trump attacked Iran because Israel wanted him to, he attacked Venezuela because it was a US national interest to do so, and he wants to attack Cuba for the same reason.

It’s not a distraction from the files, it’s US imperialism.

I'm regretting even having said anything to someone like you. Because, yeah, everything you've listed is parts too. But, you don't have the big picture and you won't ever get the big picture unless:

  • Born American
  • Lived in America all your life
  • Understood how decayed America has become in the past 50 years

So, I'm done with you. You can believe, whatever you believe, but you won't ever get it.

Okay, so sorry I didn’t magically change my views because you know best.

Guess you won’t ever get the big picture unless you’re born outside of the US and see how normal this all is for the US.
