To me those are not mutually exclusive.

What tf has the United States stood for, if not colonialism, racism and genocide?
I'm glad USAians are starting to despise their country as much as the rest of the world now that it's starting to happen to them, but please keep the lusting after the good ol days that never existed to the boomers.
As a vet, this is exactly on point
For a moment I was wondering what a veterinarian had anything to do with this
animal rights, and, like, in a pinch, I'll take anyone who can cut me open and pull out a bullet without puking, then stitch it up competently. that might be important pretty soon.
I am still willing to give my life for what I believe this country stands for. This country stands, and right now those values are st odds with some people and policy's within this countrys government, and part of what this country stands for is standing agianst tyranny, agianst threats, foreign and domestic. No person is above this cardinal rule. We usurped tyrannical rule once before, we will surely do so agian.
does it stand against tyranny and stuff?
I feel like it never has, except by accident when it was defending it's colonial possessions or intended colonial possessions.
we, you and I and whoever the fuck else; we could give it a shot. you wanna?
I suppose emphasis on what I believe it stands for. The U.S.'s grey history date back to the pilgrims, but at times the people have rallied to fight agianst tyranny and I believe we can and will do so agian. I want to believe this country stands for freedom and stands agianst tyranny, and that we, the people will fight for this.
Luigi is the only example of someone who followed through though.
The guy who tried to shoot trump before the election counts too.
Your sense of history is brutally stunted.
Last time was when the 5th largest city by population was a hill in New Jersey over a winter huh?
Yes?
I was never willing to give my life for anything and that's still true.
I give my life to protect your family, too. =/
I'm willing to give my life for the right cause but not willing to kill someone. It's harder to find how to make that work nowadays
also, dying isn't suuuuuper useful.
if it helps, fascists are already largely dead and unrecoverable as humans.
especially since the "law and order" folks are so insistent on trying to kill or torture us.
live and let live, but those who live by the sword will ultimately die by the sword.
