Welcome

We're not The Onion! Not affiliated with them in any way! Not operated by them in any way! All the news here is real!

The Rules

Posts must be:

  1. Links to news stories from...
  2. ...credible sources, with...
  3. ...their original headlines, that...
  4. ...would make people who see the headline think, “That has got to be a story from The Onion, America’s Finest News Source.”

Comments must abide by the server rules for Lemmy.world and generally abstain from trollish, bigoted, or otherwise disruptive behavior that makes this community less fun for everyone.

And that’s basically it!

Why are people incapable of understanding the US isn't the source of all evil? Shitty people exist everywhere. It's really not that complex of an idea to understand.

I think, it's more the US love of capitalism that makes people think so. It just sounds on brand that someone who worships their company that much would be in the US.

As someone who has been to South Korea, US capitalism looks downright reasonable in comparison.

And some European airports are great examples of runaway capitalism. Good luck finding your gate when you're walking through what looks like a shopping mall on steroids. No, I don't want a Burberry Armani Hermes scarf, I want a damn sandwich.
