      Propaganda is a hell of a drug.

      If I were you, I’d take a hard look at rising right wing extremism across the EU, and spread the word. Before it happens to you, too.

          That’s what I’m saying!

          It may be fun to make fun of the US, and justified. But I think it’s a distraction from what’s happening in your own back yard.

          Don’t be us. Please.

            If the US learned anything of Europe they wouldn’t be in this mess… Europeans are already very aware of it. edit: you are warning us about what we’ve already been through and we warned YOU about. the ignorance and arrogance of you people are staggering.

      the grass roots culture across the us is “stay off my property or I will shoot you”. so what’ya expect? the largest cultural influences we have are pioneer culture and capitalism. it isn’t a mature society by any measure, it is the pinnacle of what you get from colonialism.

      It’s hard to care about the outside when I have to constantly be vigilant to how my closest neighbors are trying to fuck us.
