Isn't it kind of weird to point at medal counts in the Olympics to say that America sucks? Most overall medals and second in gold medals. Shitting on America, no matter if it makes sense or not.
Bit of a woosh. It's a joke about the specific category. America, the country with the largest number of shooting deaths, has 0 medals in the shooting category.
I get the joke, it's ironic. Which should have been the title. Just like it's ironic to point to medal counts as evidence that America sucks.
But it's Lemmy and you get extra points for shitting on America, regardless of how much sense it makes.
I’m with you. The title doesn’t make sense.
