    Buckle to the top, kick to the bottom. And you wonder why the authoritarian politicians win…

        You are only proving it further. This kind of comments sounds just like MAGA voters. And that is part of the issue. How do you want to beat them politically, if you let them influence your political culture in their way?

          No. I’m tired of people on Lemmy that aren’t even American trying to tell us what to do in our own elections.

          I don’t go astroturfing in posts about your countries politics. So yes, you can fuck right off.

            America tells other countries how to vote or we’ll overthrow their governments. Even in the 2020s we told South American countries “Elect who we want or we’ll cut off money and send in troops.”

            The world watched America out of fear of Trump winning. Rightfully so. He’s a mad man who hates anyone but himself.

            I’m not going to get mad at people who affected by who runs the world police, the biggest economy, the biggest armed forceds, an unconditional UN veto, and so many more things.

            Trump is bad for everyone in the world. Makes sense people are scared and wanting to chime in.

              Show me examples of people from the US here, on Lemmy, that tell you 24/7 what to do in your country.

                Why not Fox News who says America has to be the world police? Why not Musk who said we’ll coup anyone we want? Why not the companies who drafted up a war for oil?

                And I’m an American, so I do have a lot of people on Lemmy telling me how the country should be.

                  I’m not talking about Americans or American TV. You’re missing the point entirely.

                    So do you want Americans expressing their opinions on the world, or do you not want Americans expressing their opinions of the world?

                    Fox News makes shit up and Americans eat it up. Trump lies, Americans love to repeat it.

                    Do you want me to just lie to you so you think you’ve won this pointless internet argument when Trump is beginning his plans to affect the world?
