Could have imagined this happening as little as 3 years ago.

An ally sending a nuclear deterrent into our waters as a message/warning to the US. This normally happens to countries like Iran or North Korea

Hey. Guess what? At the moment, we're the bad guys...

At the moment? When was there ever a time the US weren't the bad guys?

[–] [email protected] 27 points 1 day ago (1 children)

Briefly the us was the good guys when we killed a bunch of slavers and then when we killed a bunch of fascists. Those were exceptions to the rule though.

Looks at founding fathers... Yeah killed the slavers. Puts blanket over Native Indians. Hides Chinese rail workers under rug. Renames Irish "Indentured workers"

They were clearly talking about the Union during the Civil War...

Yeah that's pretty obvious what's your point?

[–] [email protected] 2 points 27 minutes ago

What's the relevance of the founding fathers, then?

[–] Retropunk64 1 points 7 hours ago (1 children)

Nobody said the founding fathers killed slavers?

[–] [email protected] 1 points 5 hours ago (1 children)

Surely you jest in your obtuse interpretation of my composed articulation...

[–] Retropunk64 1 points 18 minutes ago

So you at least understand the comment you replied to wasn't talking about the founding fathers... So why fucking bring them up?

[–] [email protected] 9 points 23 hours ago

They also killed the Nazis, except for the ones that were useful, of course.

I kinda root for them in the war of independence
