Fuck the Olympics and fuck the American Nazis.
Cut the crap on the “civilized” world farce. If there was any decency the israeli onslaught would be punished. Instead these countries stand by them and do nothing.
Civilised doesn’t have to mean flawless. The US is still a horribly barbaric country, and the weapons Israel use to commit genocide come from the US.
Many of the countries in question don’t have a military presence that could dwarf the others, nor an army that would willingly fight larger enemies for those morals.
Obviously, I’m not including America in that statement.
You’re correct but there is much that can be done without military intervention. The least these nations could have done is a weapons embargo and sanctions. Many other diplomatic levers that can be used but aren’t.
Welcome to the Land of the Free, here’s your bill.
Gawd I’m so tired.
Land of the fee, home of the slave 🇺🇸
Home of the Brave (we’re terrified of non-white, non-male, non-cis, and/or non-Christian people)
Fuck the olympics. It’s an oppressive, leeching grift in service of nationalism, imperialism, capitalism, etc.
So it’s coming home?
The Olympics may be interesting, but they won’t be happening in the United States.
The next American Olympics is scheduled for Summer 2028. America, and the world, will be a much different place by then. I expect that we will have an Olympics of mostly authoritarian nations, and no Democratic nations.
And there will be lots of ludicrous world records set, because they will fuck with the timings. These guys can’t do anything without cheating.
I don’t think the Olympics will happen at all in the United States in 2028.
I wouldn’t be surprised if we had a Nero situation happen at the next Olympics.
Come on come on carry on! This has potential. So it’s uncle… wotsisname? Uncle Scar? Uncle Sam? Uncle Scam? tricking Simba into going there right? What happens next? I’m intrigued
You’d think EU Simba wouldn’t need to be warned to not go towards fascism, but the way it’s been going lately…
The way it’s been going lately is that the US is the only country which chose Trump. Don’t worry about us, worry about yourself.
I mean, he wasn’t running anywhere else, so yeah. I do worry about other places, because while the US plunged head-first into fascism, far-right politicians are also gaining power all over the world. Just take care not to become like us!
The far right are not gaining anything. Le Pen got beaten in France, Farage got beaten in the UK, AfD got beaten in Germany. You’re on your own and we don’t like you.
That’s just the countries where it went not absolutely terribly. As someone who lives in the Netherlands I can absolutely tell you that we’re being ruled by a fascist, and people from Italy, Turkey, Serbia, Hungary and probably a bunch of other countries I missed can probably say the same about their country as well.
History is a circle, just like Alabama family trees…
Hmm perhaps
ciiircle historicaaaal… Just like in aaalabaamaaa… Faaamily treeees … I don’t know I’ve never been musically gifted
Oh and they are racist against lions ,even have stupid clubs for their hate
Meanwhile how the Canadians treat the natives:
If you think Canada is bad (and it sure is), you should see how the US treated its indiginous peoples.
“Treats,” current tense.
WHAT? JUST BECAUSE WE ROUNDED THEM UP AND PUT THEM IN CAMPS WITH NO FOOD OR WATER WE’RE THE BAD GUY???
we HAD to do that, we had HUNTED their primary FOOD SOURCE in to OBLIVION.
“There is an even worse place” is really not a good argument.
I mean if we’re going to discuss statements of fact we could also include Europe’s history of colonial exploitation. But I’m on board with just ribbing the US for now.
Having to dig up old stuff and again pointing at other places is again a miss.
It may seem old to you because your privilege allows you to forget. Ask indigenous peoples if they have forgotten. You may be suprised by what you hear, when you take the time to listen.
Thanks, don’t really need the lecture or your assumptions
My cousin was an Olympic sprinter and that couldn’t make me give a fuck about the Olympics. Honestly it just seems like another thing to distract families so they have something to talk about. Also, the committee is basically run by the mob. Hard pass.
It’s one of the few things where most of the world fights without anybody dying. We need way more things like the Olympics to remind us we are all part of the same species sharing a collective space ship Earth.
Just be careful guys…if it can happen here it can happen to you. Stay frosty out there.
Kick US media out of your country, use opensource software and you’ll be better off.
Don’t be afraid to just take US intellectual property.
It was acquired through exploitative neoliberal and neocolonial policy. “AI” is actually the peak manifestation of this.
Also, China does it (though in some cases consensually) and its gone fairly well for them.
Apparently China just came out and said they dont care about american copyrights so this might grow.
To be fair, its not like the West played by the rules during the colonial era so that’s understandable.
A number of US based companies have willingly given away IP in the past to access the market.
Fascists? Here? in europe? What gave you the idea that it could ever happen?
I think Europe had their time. They are nodding knowingly and pitifully at America at how hard it will be to climb out of it.
Nah, the right is on the raise in Europe too. The question is for how long and how far do they get.
With a lot of money from the US.
In some cases, but rich people are usually right wing as it justifies their wealth. Consequently they are classists. And racism is just another type of classism.
In other words, Europe has their own rich monsters.
Russia is worse then the US is, but the US is working on it. Both are helping out likeminded European groups. Musk was turning up at German and British facist party events for a reason.
So what you’re saying is that the UK needs a repeat of Cable Street to drive home that fascism isn’t welcome and drive out wannabe-Mosley.
Would be an option. Another really good one would be a reform of the election system. It is insane that Labour got 2/3 of the seats in parliament with only 1/3 of the votes. Even worse with Reform polling at about 1/3 of the votes right now.
…it’s harsh times
Are you kidding? Europe is trying it’s best to keep up with the USs sprint to the hard right.
The crisis of the 30’s was a factor and now we’re in the same position.
Dramatically worsened by the results of ‘there will be no more Nordstream’.
Not a peep from our EU leaders, just more bootlicking, crippling sanctions on ourselves and buying wildly expensive and polluting US fracking gas.
And billions more of their murder toys OC, what else are our pension and social welfare funds for?
AFD, National Rally, CPC, and other far right parties standing right behind them
I cannot fathom how maple MAGOT 51st staters haven’t looked up the price of insulin in the US vs Canada yet.
Consider all MAGAts cultists. You cannot fathom how fucked in the head they are. You could point this out, any logical person would see how crazy expensive insulin and other medication in the US Healthcare system is … but MAGAts have no logic whatsoever. They will just say its “fake news” or liberal propaganda.
I am serious. You have to shut MAGA down. These bitches are crazy.
They will complain that the US is paying for Canadian health care.
It would require them to think and then they wouldn’t be maple maggots anymore.
The football world championship is going to be in the US too. The goalies aren’t the only ones going to be shot at.
Ice is going to have a field day kidnapping football players
Any non-white team is not going to have a good time.
And here I was worried, that it might end up in a democracy.
I’m chilling in Mexico bruh
