I was born in 1962. For all my life it was Canadians pursuing american culture. It was cool. It was mythic. It was something we didn’t have here at home. It’s not like that anymore though.

Boycott US@lemmy.ca•55% Of Canadians Think Serving In U.S. Military Should Be IllegalEnglish
4·12 hours agoI’m not sure there is a U.S. military anymore. I think it morphed into the trump/epstein private army. Semper Tweens! Don’t forget though, just like there are innocent citizens apart from trump/epstein there are also innocent soldiers apart from trump/epstein.

No Stupid Questions@lemmy.world•How do we stop people from defending billionares and trillion dollar companies?
5·13 hours agoIf they’re being paid off you can’t stop them. You have to stop the billionaires first, then the payoff money stops flowing and all of a sudden the arrogant and petty petit bourgeoisie are on their own desperately trying to convince you that they were on your side all along.

World News@lemmy.world•US Fatally Bombs Wedding in Iran, Killing 4, Including ChildrenEnglish
20·13 hours agoAh, the good old Epstein class. Fightin’ wars to cover up their “tween” business. American soldiers should not be forced to defend a pedophile cabal who are somehow the most powerful people on earth. We need to shake the globe like an etch-a-sketch as the Epstein class will kill anybody or do anything to protect themselves.
Ah…so it’s money. I should have known.
