He’s responding to your nonsense.

It’s also missing the “Uyghurs in concentration camp” picture.

That’s been argued before, saying that the French revolution was just a fluke and we’ll go right back to monarchy rule, replacing the Capetian dynasty for the Bonaparte dynasty.

The fossil fuel revolution has replaced fuedalism with capitalism and so will the ground solar revolution replace capitalism with socialism.

I wouldn’t put Netanyahu in the former camp.

Sorry, but I’m not a fan of jokes at the expense of the colorblind and self-doubters,
where you have people keep guessing and second guessing what’s in the pile of dots.

Especially when this is on Lemmy.

If you are colorblind and even if you’re not.
You’re being lied to here.
There’s nothing in this meme.

Topic Starter should come out and confirm.

Hmmm… I do mind that they look the part so you can at least recognize them.
Avatar the last airbender movie was the worst offender of this,
because at least one cast member looked like another character from the show.

So the 1st one I have no issue with.

2nd needs a tan and spraying his hair to gray/white,
5th needed more red hair like this:

The 3rd and 4th ones look ridiculous though.

I don’t know from which movies they are but
If #3 has an iconic beard, then #3 needs a beard and some better clothes if those clothes are iconic as well.
#4 is a no.

Das verstehe ich nicht.

It’s even worse in South Korea and Taiwan?

No no no no no…
USA won’t be the chant he’ll receive.
Instead it will be…

An Exxon gas station!? Really?
Was this picture made in 2005?

You’re more likely to find a charging station with SGCC written on it if you’re lucky,
because it’ll more likely be 国家电网 as latin letters will have lost all status.

“Increasingly likely” is undercutting it.

I hope it doesn’t…

I’d rather see it burn to the ground deliberately.

Flaccid?
If I did that with my thumb, it would be completely broken.

Grand Theft Auto?
Genuflect To America?
Gotham Teachers Association? Guess The Abbreviation?

I don’t get it.
And the cars don’t match the young men’s outfits.

I think you’re just confused on what is the left, but many in the US are.

You can’t suppose that ideologically and economically opposed nations won’t both editorialize (which seems here to be your concern, editorializing).

No, I am concerned about Ukraine that is fighting an unwinnable war for the US(/UK/EU) that set them up with unrealistic goals and demands, while their enemy had modest demands that are now being eroded as Ukraine has decided that these modest demands should be met with a fight to the death fueled by the outdated view of the world that you can’t go wrong when you have the military and financial backing of the US.

And Ukraine is now fighting until there’s nothing left, because while if it was a regional conflict,
this nation would have crumbled and surrendered, it is now sacrificing every life it has
as a constant stream of financial support from the EU, UK and US allows Zelensky to theoretically
go for a zero sum war until there’s no Ukrainian citizen left.

You are portraying Russia, a global superpower, as the unilateral victim. I am saying there is more nuance, especially concerning superpowers.

Russia is a regional superpower.
The current power behind Russia, China is the global superpower.
Russia meanwhile is not a victim because it’s winning and they came to the rescue of the Russian Ukrainians who had been suppressed since the coup of 2014.
The victims are the Russian Ukrainians and Ukrainian conscripts as both groups have been duped
into voting for a conman that is unfit to be president and lets his decisions be made by foreign powers
who have no stake in Ukraine and use Ukrainians as cannon fodder as the foreign themselves also have the outdated
view of the world that you can’t go wrong when you have the military and financial backing of the US.

This entire war is currently the biggest example of the failure of liberal democracy.
The Soviet Union did not do anything remotely like this when it started losing power,
dissolved peacefully with geopolitical issues far more difficult to solve than the issues
the US is currently experiencing and yet the US is dropping the ball because it’s a liberal democracy
and a bad one at that.

Ukraine has a card-carrying puppet president elected for the polar opposite for what he was elected for,
all the EU nations have shown themselves to be puppet leaders of the US,
and thrown their economies, which is about 25+ countries, into financial ruin to support this war,
which should have remained a regional conflict of a border and alliance dispute,
and it’s even hurting the US financially as well,
because it is currently China, not the US,
where can’t go wrong when you have the military and financial backing of.

The US started it.
Just like it did with Venezuela (failed so far), Myanmar (failed), Hong Kong (failed), Belarus (failed), Kazachstan (failed), Georgia (failed), Afghanistan (ruined and failed), Pakistan (to a lesser extend) and Syria (ruined but success).
Not to mention the “Arab Spring” (success), so Lybia among a host of MENA nations as well.

If the US hadn’t been involved with its subservient media, but some other country, like Russia, being involved then there would be questions like:

“How are these interim presidents like Ahmed al-Sharaa being selected?”
“So all of these interim presidents are all living in Russia and move from Russia into these countries as presidents?”
“And these people are recieving peace prizes in Russia/Belarus/North Korea?”
“So most of these people in Finland that’s in civil war right now don’t know at all who this interim president is, was never on the ballot, lived most of his life in Russia, but it’s okay, because this is an interim president, selected ‘internationally’?”

And headlines like:

“Russia installs another Puppet President into Finland under the pretense of democracy and soveirignity.”
“Russia calls to implement another slave shield zone above the nation of Greece, dubbed ‘no-fly zone’ in Russian language”

The only thing Ukraine stands out of the list is that Zelensky actually had been elected by the people and started out as an internal project for an oligarch, unlike CIA puppets Ahmed al-Sharaa, Hamid Karzai, Juan Guaidó, Reza Pahlavi, Fethullah Gülen, Aung San Suu Kyi, Joshua Wong, Ursula von der Leyen and others.
Zelensky however was about as thruthful in his campaign being an anti-war president as Trump has been and so his pro-Russian voters got completely betrayed, because he decided that he wanted to join the EU at all cost, thinking that this would turn his country into an economic miracle following the same economic trend as neighbouring Poland, repeating history with truisms as the economic landscape of the world has changed dramatically between the days Poland started to recieve EU subsidies and US investments and when Zelensky became president, with Russia in a much better position where it was back then and so Ukrainian people with growing economic ties to Russia only further entrenched themselves towards support for Russia.

Russia invaded Ukraine because it violated the Minsk 3 agreements time and time again and because of mistrust of the European Union–Ukraine Association Agreement that included military cooperation with NATO countries, which aroused suspicions of Ukraine trying to join NATO, an anti-Russia organisation, with Ukraine being an artificially created nation by the Soviet Union that contains mostly parts of Russia and Poland.
The US supporting Ukrainian nazis thing was just the most emotionally infuriating part, but not the most worrying as suppression of the Russian people in the Donbass was, who tried to vote themselves out of the country, but were violently suppressed.

The invasion was a warning to Ukraine that if it did not sign the agreement that it would refrain itself from joining NATO,
it could expect a devestating war, which it now does.

If anyone has footage of this by the way, please direct me to it.
I did not save the footage of people going to polling stations and being shot at by Ukrainian troops.
The footage I saw had loud sweeping music/commentary added to it,
which did a giant disservice in my opinion to spread the atrocity that happened that day.

Too vague to agree on this.
All conflicts are more complicated than this, even where there’s a clearcut culprit.
I’ve seen it misused too many times.

Just by seeing iii’s comments one can see the confusion. Where he thought the one holding the missile is what the author thinks is clearly the one chilling and vibing, I thought of another conflict entirely that this doesn’t apply to, but seen the argument used at least three times.

I hereby end my post stating that the US, Canada, Australia, Aotearoa and France’s New Caledonia should give back its land to its indigenous people. Thank you.
