…says the guy on Lemmy criticizing the U.S. government and not getting thrown in jail for it.
I bet you used both your brain cells to write that reply.
Is that 46 on average also for the past 40 years? Do you have a source for this? Not trying to wreck your post, but I’d like to drop this on some non-leftists one day at the appropriate time, and I want to be confident that the information is reliable.
I love when not beating your child is used as a flex.
Congratulations! You are not THAT kind of asshole.
pov when you rather kill foreigners than feed your own (are they still going thru with those anti-homeless public seats? lol.)
And those are like $10 mil apiece minimum, but no free lunch for YOUR unworthy poor children. They would rather pay $1000 to kill a foreign child than $1 to feed yours.
The $1000 comes from us and goes into their pocket… The $1 would come out of their pocket and into our kid’s mouth… Although, we’d probably need to buy the food from them too so the $1 would still end up back in their pocket… But the point of the system is to take money out of our pockets and put it in theirs, not to take it out of one of their pockets and put it in their other pocket
The PRC needs to return land it has unjustly conqueted.

Agreeing the USA sucks isn’t hard too swallow.
Been doing it every morning for 42 years
Would China not drop bombs if they faced no consequences and it benefited them?
Idk, they probably have had the opportunity sometimes, but they don’t have the same military industrial complex as the USA pushing for it at every chance. So the cost benefit analysis is different. Quite often it doesn’t benefit “the USA” as much as a few specific people within, and that mechanic doesn’t exist in the same way for China.
What do you mean that mechanic doesn’t exist in the same way for China? Are you talking like China has achieved a classless utopia situation?
No, the arms manufacturers just don’t have the same level of influence over the government and armed forces that they do in America, and the people in the government who decide whether to drop bombs won’t personally get rich if they buy more bombs.
That isn’t something unique to China btw but basically almost every country except USA and a few others.
Do you think that dynamic wouldn’t exist for any country, including China, that had as much world influence as the US does now?

What do you mean, different? Every country is different from each other. If you were clear about what you’re implying here, i.e. “different as in having no negative sides” then it would be obvious that your argument is against an absolute straw man. Nobody made such a claim.
It’s not like China doesn’t have issues but I think you don’t understand or want to think about just how incredibly fucked up the USA is. China is definitely way less bad.
How many countries have they couped? How many civil wars in poor countries are they responsible for? To you in your comfy home this is just academic but these are the worst atrocities in human history, and the USA does them one after the other after the other.
thank god it isn’t a dichotomy
