Yo, I have no idea. I’m starting to believe that a lot of these anti-American accounts are Russian trolls. They’re so unnecessarily antagonizing and hypocritical. Of all political entities in the world to criticize someone else… Europe? EUROPE? Let’s take a look at the hypocrisy.

The US is racist!

• Hmmm, I wonder who even came up with the idea of races?

The US had slavery!

• Umm, who started that slavery?
• Who captured and enslaved the Africans?
• Who brought them over and sold them across all of the Americas?

The US supports the genocide of Palestine!

• Ok, who gave that land to Zionists and why? What was the reason, hmm? And why Palestinian land??

The US spends too much on military and not enough on social welfare!

• Yeah, who’s going to save those fantastic EU welfare programs from Putin?
• Btw, where are European countries buying their fancy high-tech military equipment from?
• Who built those F-16s that European countries donated to Ukraine?
• Why doesn’t the EU build its own military-industrial complex then?

The US invaded Iraq!

• Who drew up the lines of the Middle East to ensure permanent conflict?
• Did someone forget Polend?

The US is belligerent!

• Odd, because I don’t think they started WWI nor WWII. Who was it?

The US dropped atomic bombs!

• Crazy, but what was Europe doing instead of sending troops to invade Japan?

The US has terrible healthcare!

• Interesting. Who is the leading researcher in medical interventions?
• Who subsidizes the world’s medications research and development so the rest of the world can brag about buying that shit wholesale and using generics a few years behind?

The US thinks too highly of itself!

• Of all the continents, which continent isn’t even a continent?

The US is too religious!

• Remind me again, what were the Crusades?
• And, why did so many Europeans even move to the US to begin with?
• Can someone point on a map to where the head of Catholic Church is, please?

As far as I can tell, Europe starts shit and the US is left cleaning up the mess. Then, Europe talks shit about the US for trying to fix the problems it creates while they sit over there basking in the resources they extracted. WTF is that?

Extra: Texas is stupid for wanting to leave the union!

• If Texas leaves (it won’t), should we follow the established naming convention and call it Texit?

Edit: WHY THE FUCK DOES THE US EVEN EXIST??

Please reread my comment slowly, word for word. See if you maybe missed something the first time.

Go to Central America and see what you think about American cops then.

Other than that? I can’t think of anything, but maybe I’m ignorant.

According to this guy, some parts of African language were preserved and adapted in certain groups.

Argentina is also quite racist.

They have not admitted that it was wrong what they were doing

This is a straight up lie.

• There was a civil war about it. It was the most costly war for the country in terms of lives.
• There was an amendment to the US Constitution about it.
• The President at the time that slavery was ended is considered to be in the top 3 of the country’s history.
• There’s a federal holiday to memorialize a civil rights leader. There are parades across the country on this day.
• There are museums and exhibits all over the country on this topic.
• There are tons of documentaries and shows on it.

This is such a blatant lie, that I don’t even know what to say.

Brazil took over 10 times more enslaved Africans than North America. That comment is way off.

Well, as a European (i.e. good person), let me welcome you to the developed world. We’re not snobby or greedy pigs like the Americans that invented Nazis. In fact, no country in Europe has ever looked down upon another country, continent, or people. We’ve also never colonized any countries nor do we conduct joint military exercises and operations with the US, and we definitely do not benefit from the US’s foreign policy and interventions. All of our luxuries are home grown and have never been the result of our brutal exploitation of other countries that resulted in horrific dictatorships, genocides, and ongoing conflict. If I remember correctly from my free history class, we have never even been to war at all. Btw, we have real history over here. Yours only goes back 200 years and has nothing at all to do with ours. What do you guys even talk about in history classes? lol!

There is absolutely no crime here in Europe, only healthcare. The other day on our superior mass-transit system, my friend was held at stethoscope-point by a criminal that alerted him that he had a heart murmur. I actually get a free diagnosis every morning. I have like 78 km of diagnoses written on superior A4 paper. We’re also very cultured as we speak several languages, all European but still very cultured. There’s absolutely no racism or oppression. All of my roommates have been Roma, Arabic, or African. My neighborhood has scheduled to protest for more minarets all week since the government makes sure we have enough vacation days to insist on diversity.

Our food is so organic that it’s composed of only carbon. That’s it. When you go to a restaurant, the waiters pick their most European customers every metric hour and gives them money. That’s right; our waiters tip us. We recycle everything and have never contributed in any fashion to climate change, and we have never supported Putin for decades by purchasing Russian gas. We’re in no way upset that we contributed less to NATO than we agreed to, depended on the US to save our asses while we enriched Putin, and now are wondering wtf we’re going to do since we don’t have shit for a military nor our own fuel supply.

It’s about time you leave the US, who is 100% at fault for everything in the world and absolutely not an ally that serves as a scapegoat to compare ourselves against in order to distract from our bullshit.

Edit: I forgot to mention that our chocolate is superior, and there is absolutely no child labor involved anywhere in the production line.

Finding a flight that doesn’t serve peanuts might improve the probability of avoiding an allergic reaction, but a passenger could easily board the flight with their own peanuts. According to OP, the epi pens only give them 20 mins to get to a hospital, which is not within reach when flying over the Pacific Ocean. It might not even be within reach when flying over land considering landing procedures for an airliner.

There’s fat in bread. An only-carbs meal is basically eating straight sugar (glucose).

According to the label on the bottle, 50 x 1,400 mg soft gels of Kirkland Signature Wild Alaskan Fish Oil will hit 100% of recommended daily fat in take based on a 2,000 calorie diet, though you might eventually overdose on vitamin A (as retinol).

Everything he and Elon are doing seems to be doing nothing but undermine standing and stability.

They’re disbanding over half of the federal government. We’re seeing it happen.

That’s how you lose with characters like Trump. They’re looking to trigger you into a shit show, and then beat you with experience. You have to stay calm and let them make an ass of themselves. They will eventually get too rash and make a royal fuck up.

No, the almanac accounts for the leap second since it was created. It doesn’t need to be updated.

I don’t know, but I’m gonna get my money out first thing Monday morning just in case /j

He would not survive something that stupid.

The ones that take it would survive. The rest would lose their market share and fail out.

Watch it have been some ancient Navy SEALS hand signal meaning FUBAR and it caught on when the ancient warrior automatically used it as he saw his hut burning down from an accidental fire. Now, all of humanity uses it.

That’s right, I almost forgot

You make very good points that I do not disagree with at all, so I am correcting myself.

This is not the same as Eckford because Eckford had the support of the federal government. The National Guard had the firearms for her. This week, the protests are against the people that protected Eckford. FYI, the government has the authority, means, and experience on violence. A lone gunman isn’t going to accomplish anything positive unless there is some highly unlikely scenario in which they use it to protect a victim, they are trained and experienced. But, as @Lumiluz@slrpnk.net pointed out, the Black Panthers were armed and did achieve progress in the 60s and 70s. Also, I have high regard for the original Black Panthers and even have a t-shirt with Huey on it.

Therefore, if you are part of a highly organized political group that has a strong identity based on centuries of brutal oppression, an established unified message, undergone weapons training, experience in lethal altercation with police, a lawyers present, a protocol for functioning as a unit at protests, and haven’t been infiltrated by the FBI yet, then listen to your leaders on whether to take a firearm or not (if that is legal because I don’t want to get in trouble for saying something that is clearly meant to highlight ill-consideration; don’t break the law).

However, if you are a lone protestor or going with a few friends because you care or to check it out, my recommendation is that you DO NOT TAKE A FUCKING FIREARM. I would like to add a few more arguments for my recommendation. If the cops don’t like your face and say that you were threatening them and you have a firearm, good luck convincing the jury that you had no ill intentions. You might win the trial with a good expensive lawyer that you will never be reimbursed for, but if you lose, you are royally fucked. Moreover, let’s even put the cops aside and only focus on you. If you have never been in an altercation where people are firing at each other, that is not the time to learn or figure things out. You will be under the most extreme stress possible for a person. You will not be able to analyze properly or make decisions in an extremely chaotic situation. You will be overwhelmed with your body’s naturally designed desire to survive. You will be reacting, not responding rationally. Making a lethal mistake will ruin your life at the very least, and ruin or end the life of others. But, let’s set the situation to be even more in your favor. Even if you make the best decision possible and fire at someone that is miraculously identified by a glowing arrow floating above their head like a video game that reads “KILL THIS GUY”, you may still miss and kill an innocent person. I’m not going to elaborate on the consequences of that.

This is merely my recommendation based on my limited knowledge and biases. To me, it seems like there are too many ways for this to go very bad, and not enough ways for it to go well. I guess maybe you could be a hero somehow? I may be wrong. I may not know a lot of information that would be contradictory to my stance. I definitely don’t know any of you individually. If you know something I don’t, that’s valid. Maybe ask people that have been arrested for taking a firearm to a protest. That would be useful information. It’s ultimately your decision, so make it. Just think it really fucking well.

Holy hell, I hope this manuscript saves even just one person from serving prison time.
