    It’s almost as if responding to a shitpost is less difficult and dangerous than mounting a resistance against an oppressive militarized state. Who knew?

    I look forward to Europe’s impending swing far right so I can post memes about it.

    Super duper sorry about that! We expect our diplomacy to be profitable and recent communications have NOT been up to our standards.

    it’s basically americans when anyone posts anything they don’t like online

    people basically think some random poster on some shitty online platform has more to answer for than the president of the US

    It’s all a trap; it’s all ragebait. Many sensible americans are likely tired of these sorts of inferences. Non-americans can look down their noses and feel smug while they get blasted in the ass by their own fascist leaders (but they’re 20% less fashy). We can snipe at each other but we’re just doing their labor for them. Again.

    You’re not wrong, but at least have an original thought and joke. I fully agree America is a shithole atm, I fully agree Americans are all mad about the wrong shit. But this is meme 32,746 of the same, tired, unoriginal joke. We’re turning into reddit where the same shit gets posted every day in a feedback loop because people want their turn to get meme karma. SNL UK has been doing some hilarious and fresh roasting of Americans and our politics, it’s not impossible to joke about still as a subject matter. But God man you’re less original than a teenager who hates his parents. As for the trap, I’ll just block you and magically escape ✨

        Does anyone else find it a little bit unsettling that theres a daily push to get americans to just go ham with machine guns?

        The weird thing is its nearly impossible to work out where its coming from. Anti-gun americans trying to push it so they get regulated? Pro-fascists looking for excuses to enact martial law? Hostile foreign powers trying to capitalise on disruption and sow chaos? Well intentioned foreign citizens? People who just want to watch the world burn? The list goes on.
