I don't live in the US banana republic.
I'm European and we fight for our rights.
If there was any advantage to having a society flooded with guns as your sick country is that you can fight them better.
But no, your population is weak, impotent, passive and pacified.
A fascists regime's dream.
But as I said, it didn't seem to bother you all too much as long as they didn't kill white people or interfered your brunch.
I'll do what I can for oppressed people anywhere, the US can't count on any sympathy, on the contrary.
Good riddance if it goes to shit.
How are y'all treating Roma people and Syrian refugees? How are you combating the rise of AfD and other fascists? Do you protect your South and Southwest Asian neighbors? It seems to me like you believe y'all are doing a lot better than you are. We need to see this and self-reflect about how our countries are FAR from perfect so we can AVOID it getting this bad.
We don't put kids in cages.
We didn't murder 35 of them like the US did in 2025 alone.
Who caused those Syrian refugees BTW? Or the Iraqi, Afghans,etc we have to take care of....
It's far from great here and I never claimed that , a lot of extreme right on the rise and EU bootlicker leaders still do what the US wants.
But in no way would we even get near what the US does.
Not even how they lived before, with zero social laws and protection, a violent militarized police, etc...
Europeans would never take that shit without a fight.
We won't be doing interpretative dance, have a walk with a sign or cry on Lemmy.
Like the other poster said, Roma and Syrian refugees are not put into cages and we do not round them up. They get care.
EU nations do not have a two-party system and other parties know better that fascists should not be given power even if they win elections, which is what's been happening, unless they can form a majority coalition of fascist parties, which will be much harder to do for them.
No. We are still serfs to the US. In fact, I don't trust some of the Syrian refugees, since I've seen the Iranian ones flying King-flags at rallies recently.
I'm not sure about the poster, but you are right about the 'not doing better' part, but the situation here is different. We're going to economically fall apart soon thanks to the unwaivering serfdom to the US by our politicians, yet we are simply too close to China and to a lesser degree Russia not to be influenced by their economic and military might and it's a matter of time before we'll see a reverse iron curtain fall here.
My point wasn't about how similar or different racism is there, but that it's a reality, I've seen underreported news about Roma and Syrian tents being set on fire by racists with no accountability, and South Asians being murdered by Neonazis in Britain in particular, and I don't even consume news from Europe that much. It's not that you have full fledged concentration camps, but that so many of your governments either ignore or encourage racism and other reactionary attitudes so they can scapegoat random minorities instead of attempting to combat economic injustice.
I believe the system is already bad when Roma and other marginalized people suffer, but I also believe it won't get better without attempting to improve it, and without communist countries next door to force your elites into expanding welfare I'm not sure you'll get what you deserve and need.
Look, you're 100% right about the US, but the person you're arguing with is obviously not representative of the average USian. Don't take it all out on them. Also Europe is shit too, maybe slightly less so, but still.
I hate these hypocrites that only complain about ICE now out of pure self-interest.
You can be nuanced all you want but all these libs/Dem party people on here are all as guilty.
And when called out they get vicious, start insults and defend their imaginary democracy that is in their eyes only temporarily hijacked by the evil orange man.
I just been called a MAGAt, LOL.
So sad they only have 2 sides in their fanatic and narrow-minded view.
They can not see further than that.
Yes it's shit, going ever further right but in no way is it 'slightly less' than that horrible country. Not even before Trump.
True
darling, the europeans are as fucked up as the statesians, at least. it's easier for you in general to hate people of colour than to topple capitalism which allows this shit to happen in the first place. even your average leftist gets to be somewhat self-righteous and exceptionalist.
WTF are you trying to say?
We definitely aren't nearly as bad as the US.
"lesser evil" (and even that is debatable, ask the former colonies) doesn't mean "not evil". all in all only the irish and to some extent the balkanic will relate to us.
I agree, never said otherwise.
EU is shit.
But we aren't bombing brown people around the world every day or regime changing them.
We are guilty as vassals and accomplices in the US crimes.
We're talking about current times, not colonial. That's irrelevant
And just seen this. LOL
These people have no self awareness.
I'm out, there's UEFA football on TV, getting a beer and forgetting about that shithole.
should i remind you of all the interventions you participated since the end of the cold war? the role you had in the breakup of yugoslavia? the occupation of afghanistan and iraq? the bombing of syria and libya? how you guys are providing intelligence and missile defense to israel, in fact enabling them to perpetrate that massacre in gaza? the several interventions the french do in their former colonies?
I had one intervention, a friend who drank too much and that's about it.
This post is literally about brown children you imbecile.
piss off
You rn:
LOL child, this is me watching you losers cry
bye anarkiddie blocking you, you bore me and have nothing of value to offer.
All you did was bitch about white people on a post about minority children being held hostage. Good luck finding the other vessel of your shared brain cell.
Edit: OK i'm going to change this to be more productive.
Lumping the USA into a single character is a huge mistake showing ignorance of the size and diversity of the country.
About 38% of us want massive change in how things are done.
About 38% want things to get much worse.
And the rest don't think politics applies to them.
So what exactly are the 38% supposed to do? Engage in civil war with their neighbors? The fronts between blue/red are near infinite. They are the property lines dividing city blocks, rural tracts. There is no way to have that war.
"About 38%" want to go back to brunch.
Blue and red are both horrible, together the vast majority of your evil country, IDC what happens to them because suddenly they get a piece of their own pie. No sympathy here.
Please carry on until that cancer country implodes, a blessing to the world
Typical american, no substance only vulgar insults when they get confronted with facts they don't like and their hypocrisy.
That popcorn so salty.
Now that's called projection.
keep deluding yourself like americans do.
your trainwreck shithole going down the shitter is the best entertainment possible.
It tastes sweet and delicious.
I feast on your salty tears.
So you want to see dead Americans - men, women, children - littering our streets?
Maybe you should just talk politics in Europe about Europe and fuck off, otherwise.
-an American
LOL drama queen.
You do that to the world every day since about the start of your cancer country.
No crocodile tears for you.
If you wouldn't be terrorizing the rest of the world I wouldn't haver to comment.
, keep eating shit and the consequences of your own actions.
I'll grab some popcorn and keep laughing at your embarrassing shitshow, IDC if you don't like it.
The EU is doing worse. Our leaders are just serfs to the empire who will defend the China-Taipei with their lives, a civil war seperatist region of China, but will yield Greenland to the US without much of a fight.
It's pathetic and this self-humiliation pride will be the fall of our government systems sooner than that of the US.
The wealth of the EU economy depends most on the German auto industry and our politicians have abandoned them while favoring Tesla that few can afford while the rest of the EU population keeps buying more and more "Volvos" and "MGs" in order to sooth and delude themselves that they're still buying European brands.
Depends, economically yes since w are indeed a vassal state and our leaders are sell-out traitors.
But as I said, we still have rights and don't need to live like ants like the without sick days, paid vacation, healthcare, etc.
Even if they break it down bit by bit as they do it is still a long way from the shithole that is the US.
And we will have revolt way before that, we're not ants and will fight.
