Ah Europe famous for ~~colonization, slave trade, racism, the literal nazis~~ being the good guys?

Y'all I'm an American and fuck my country and fuck the current Russian state but fuck Europe even more tbh.

Also what are you hating on China for? Guess that's European racism again.

I mean double and triple fuck Europe but fuck them more than the literal scourge plaguing the whole planet? Doubtful

I could see a reasonable take that the USA is worse. Especially if you're just thinking about current events. As long as you're saying fuck Europe too I consider us on the same side.

What, if the US with their genocidial history can play world police...

The only thing Europe did wrong was causing the fall of Rome. Everything that came after that was just a consequence.

Rise again, Italy, and claim what is yours. The world.

I would think this is not satire if we were in Reddit.

A bunch of African countries just threw off French colonial control like, three years ago, and are still being vilified for it. This shit is extremely current and you're acting like a smug prick

[–] Cowbee@lemmy.ml 18 points 1 day ago (1 children)

Europe still practices neocolonialism and imperialism. Hell, Australia and other European settler-colonies still exist.

As a non indigenous Australian what would a real communist do?

[–] Cowbee@lemmy.ml 13 points 23 hours ago

Read up on local decolonial movements, and listen to what they have to say and are advocating for. Read up on settler-colonialism, Fanon is an excellent writer.

What a brain dead and privileged take. Exactly how long are people allowed to be upset for? Would you say that shit to a holocaust survivor.

White people smh

[–] Aussiemandeus@aussie.zone -3 points 12 hours ago (1 children)

Ironic I'm not white, I'm Australian Aboriginal, every year on the 25th of January people getting shitty about the invasion of Australia.

I think get over it my grandmother was stolen generation but I'm not beating my chest about it

Lastly saying "White people smh" is still racist.

Imagine someone said black people smh because of their opinions

What a dumbass🤣🤣🤣

[–] Aussiemandeus@aussie.zone 1 points 17 minutes ago

Yep you got me i lied

Not really but dude there's something wrong with you.

Europe is profitting off child slavery and other horrible shit worldwide. This isn't a thing of the past only, and being dismissive like this is beyond disrespectful to the many victims of capitalism.
