They know it’s an effective strategy, because Americans love to blame other country’s leaders for their own failures. Anything bad in Amerikkka, or anything bad that happens to Amerikkka, must be because of some nefarious outside influence.

It also helps that Americans have an extremely short term memory, and easily forget the things politicians have previously said or done. Most of them don’t even remember that Kamala campaigned on making the US have the “most lethal military” on Earth, and repeatedly added that Iran was America’s number one enemy. They were already setting up a narrative in order to prepare people for an upcoming war with Iran. It was going to happen no matter any election results, because the empire’s ruling class decides.

When America isn’t doing well in a war and the people oppose it, just make the opposition party campaign on being “pro-peace” and ending wars, then immediately go to war again and pick up where you left off, rinse and repeat.

Just fucking do it already. With the amount of times he’s threatened to do this, I’ll believe it when it actually happens.

If you have the same opinion as the US state department that every sovereign country that succesfully defends itself against imperialism is a “criminal regime”, then you’re not in any way a serious anti-imperialist. In fact, you’re actively betraying the cause by helping to delegitimize the oppressed, which aids the oppressor.

It’s like the universe is having a laugh.

Not enough.

Europe loves to pretend they’re sovereign actors who stand up against their master, but when push comes to shove, they fall right back in line like a good lapdog.

It doesn’t help that the current crop of ghoulish EU leaders such as von der Leyen and Kallas are as pro-Amerikkkan as they can get. Whenever the US threatens them, they downplay it and somehow find a way to make it about Russia instead.

They don’t really want to give up their cozy position within the imperialist superstructure, which they’ve greatly benefited from for a long time. Instead, they cling on to this desperate hope of weathering the storm until EU-US relations eventually normalize and they can take their rightful place again, possibly under new US leadership.

At this stage, there’s a higher chance of European infighting (like the recent disagreements and growing rivalry between Germany and France) than any serious confrontation between Europe and the US.

The Western bourgeoisie loves using South America as their laboratory.

Chile under fascism was the birthplace of neoliberalism.

Now Argentina under fascism is becoming the birthplace of the next stage of neoliberalism.

Ukraine left alone will be known as lawless hub of terrorism and weapons

People have joked about a “stabbed in the back” narrative, and that is looking more likely every day. With all those weapons sent to Ukraine, having well armed militias on your doorstep who believe you betrayed them, could potentially lead to some crazy blowback in Europe.

China literally has state-mandated “affirmative action” for ethnic minorities, so the whole argument is utter nonsense to begin with.

It’s just a way for chuds to push the usual narrative that caring about minorities is the problem, and for PatSocs and other right-deviationist clowns to use it as an opportunity to promote their own heavily revisionist and reactionary version of Marxism-Leninism.

The EUrocrats’ unprecedented levels of “monitoring the situation” and “too early to assess the legality” are as shameless as they are predictable.

These lapdogs deserve all the humiliation they’ve been experiencing and that which is yet to come.

At least my parents only had to worry about being nuked to bits. I have to also worry about AI nuking everyone’s brain cells, and the economy nuking my wallet.

What’s funny is that Putin has repeatedly said the same thing about Zelensky. So she’s ironically using what they themselves like to call “Russian talking points”.

Yes, I’ve seen multiple shitlibs with Putin Derangement Syndrome claim that the reason this attack happened is because Putin wanted Trump to do it. The fact that Venezuela is an ally of Russia is never considered, because that would destroy the narrative that everything Trump does is uniquely “un-american”, even when he does the most amerikkkan thing ever.

Oh, you’ll keep hearing them, alright. These imperialist lapdogs will go straight back to calling Russia the biggest danger to peace, while the amerikkkan empire will be attacking country after country until it finally reaches Greenland.

I’m willing to bet that they’ll first pretend to resist the amerikkkans for optics, but will then swiftly let them annex the island without putting up a fight, all in the name of peace. Then afterwards they’ll immediately go back to screaming about Russia again.

Is it just me, or is there a sudden surge lately of Lemmy “anarchists” whining about “le tAnKiEs” again, while the fucking planet is burning and literal fascist movements are gaining momentum worldwide.

The quote “Social-Democracy is objectively the moderate wing of fascism” keeps aging like fine wine.

This whole “technofeudalism” nonsense he keeps spouting is very convenient for reformists like him, because that way they can keep selling capitalism as a solution.
