  • Usonian also works.

  • Zebra or giraffe. Not to ride, just to go on walks with.

  • China, Russia, and the US were not part of the Axis.

    Only the Ukrainian nationalist jewish-massacreing banderites fought for the Axis, and the post-2014 Ukrainian government venerates him.

  • Out of the four, only the Ukrainian nationalists were part of the axis powers.

  • George washington, franklin, jefferson, madison, all the founders were slave-owning colonizers who explicitly modelled their country after ancient Rome.

    It's not a human problem, these were specifically evil people who did not share the same values as the people they murdered and enslaved.

    Most countries were not founded in this way.

  • The US was founded on slavery and genocide / conquest of hundreds of indigenous nations. It's rotten to the core.

  • The dronie credibility meter:

    If it's from a US-aligned country = reliable

    US enemy country = unreliable

  • The US has been the most evil country on earth long before musk arrived.

  • The author Domenico Losurdo uses the term mutual demystification a lot, especially in Liberalism - a counter history. When two parties accuse each other of being hypocrites, it often ends up showing that they both are.

  • Already exists. Go to your user settings and deselect show upvote and show downvote scores.

  • Only one country has over 800+ external military bases. The rest of the world combined only has ~20.

    The US is easily the most evil country in world history.

  • These are some extremely racist tropes you're parroting.

  • Some albums I like that are synthwave / vaporwave adjacent.

    • The Weeknd - Dawn FM
    • Saint Pepsi - Hit vibes
    • Blank Banshee - Blank Banshee 0
    • Burial - Untrue
    • Unkle - psyence fiction
    • Anything by massive attack
    • DJ Shadow - Endtroducing
    • Deltron 3030
  • I'm 99% sure its sarcasm.

  • One thing you notice with all these "my own vibes-based-orientalist" analyses, is that they never have any sources.

  • George Carlin skit about executing corrupt bankers on live TV

  • The competition = efficient / spurs invention is mostly a myth.

    The peak period of US inventions, was from ~ 1930-1980, when it was forced (by the USSR's rapid growth) to adopt a similar public-planning model, and allocate a ton of resources to public projects. This article gets into it.

    There's also the book, The people's republic of wal-mart, which isn't the best, but it does contain one good argument: companies like Wal-mart and Amazon are many times the size of the GDP of even many countries, and they don't compete internally, and use full-scale planning, with information provided at every level. It shows a few cases where companies tried to emulate the "compete = win" by splitting their company into many competing divisions, and of course the companies quickly imploded because of the massive waste of resources.

    Another good book on this is CJ Chivers - The Gun. It compares the history around the development of the AK-47 (which was collectively designed and had input from many state-level entities), vs the M16's development, and how these two different development models affected their success.
