Ah Europe famous for ~~colonization, slave trade, racism, the literal nazis~~ being the good guys?
Y'all I'm an American and fuck my country and fuck the current Russian state but fuck Europe even more tbh.
Also what are you hating on China for? Guess that's European racism again.
I mean double and triple fuck Europe but fuck them more than the literal scourge plaguing the whole planet? Doubtful
I could see a reasonable take that the USA is worse. Especially if you're just thinking about current events. As long as you're saying fuck Europe too I consider us on the same side.
Agree
👈😎
Look, you need to accept that every country has skeletons in the closet. The international landscape has no good guys, only interests.
Ok you can same the about people.
But say you and I and 3 other people are in a room.
We find out one is an active serial killer another a serial rapist and you find out another had stolen $1000 from his own mother for a drug problem. If I make a judgment like " hey dude fuck that serial rapist and that serial killer. " And your response is "you have to accept that everybody does bad stuff". That would be just as asinine. Just because nobody's perfect and no institution is perfect. Does not mean you cannot make judgments about which one is morally better than another.
What, if the US with their genocidial history can play world police...
The only thing Europe did wrong was causing the fall of Rome. Everything that came after that was just a consequence.
Rise again, Italy, and claim what is yours. The world.
You gotta use the tone indicators haha
I would think this is not satire if we were in Reddut.
Famously good Rome that never did anything bad.
Yeah can't let go of the past, im still mad about the bacteria that killed my ancestor before we evolved out of the ocean
A bunch of African countries just threw off French colonial control like, three years ago, and are still being vilified for it. This shit is extremely current and you're acting like a smug prick
Europe is profitting off child slavery and other horrible shit worldwide. This isn't a thing of the past only, and being dismissive like this is beyond disrespectful to the many victims of capitalism.
What a brain dead and privileged take. Exactly how long are people allowed to be upset for? Would you say that shit to a holocaust survivor.
White people smh
Ironic I'm not white, I'm Australian Aboriginal, every year on the 25th of January people getting shitty about the invasion of Australia.
I think get over it my grandmother was stolen generation but I'm not beating my chest about it
Lastly saying "White people smh" is still racist.
Imagine someone said black people smh because of their opinions
Solid mate
LMAO
Yes. I would, if they were still mad at the present german government.
The current German government that is currently wlbow-deep in another Holocaust?
Well my comment is in the past so just disregard that
Europe still practices neocolonialism and imperialism. Hell, Australia and other European settler-colonies still exist.
As a non indigenous Australian what would a real communist do?
Read up on local decolonial movements, and listen to what they have to say and are advocating for. Read up on settler-colonialism, Fanon is an excellent writer.
