There’s a huge difference between “lol le dum fat burger chez merica” and commentary about the history of the country and the patterns, systems, and dark truths that made it what it is today. Is there any one element in this meme that you’d argue is false?
War we are pretty bad at it. Like the last time we actually tried we nuked Japan twice. We couldn’t even take over Vietnam since Nixon had a hardon for mao and didn’t want to make him angry. Or that time the un told us not to make an irradiated cobalt dmz in Korea so we ended up with whatever the fuck is going on now.
We are also pretty bad capitalists, unless chronyism is capitalism?
We are also pretty bad at genocides unless we are dragging up stuff from over 100 years ago?
Also, we learned about the genocide of the natives in high school, and this topic is written about extensively by American academics, and I can order books about it freely. Meanwhile, the world’s autocrats build entire generations around denying fundamental history until they’ve twisted themselves in such circles that they need to censore entire portions of the internet to keep up the charade.
Iraq and Afghanistan… first gulf war Iraq fucked around and found out… Second time the USA got angry and then kind of forgot what was going on for a decade. We are pretty bad at the occupy and imperialism thing.
Afghanistan was dumb the USA could of genocided the people but spent trillions trying to spread liberal democratic ideas to people who didn’t care. I guess that’s imperialism?
Real imperialists would still be occupying them and purged the population not wasted trillions of dollars to try to make them more liberal then left…
