The United States of America has become the biggest aggressor and oppressor on this planet. They went from being “upholders of democracy” just after WW2 to downright Nazi-land.

They haven’t won a single war without the help of their European allies and yet have all these military bases around the world that help fund their disgusting military-industry complex and put on this pseudo narrative of being global peace-keepers when all they have done is kill innocent people, and raped women and children.

Their latest victim is going to be Nigeria and unless other countries band together to boycott and sanction the US, nothing will change.

    I’m not defending a lot of America’s actions rn but no shot they are a bigger aggressor than Russia, who is literally in the middle of a full-scale land invasion to annex their neighbor.

    America has clearly become a hostile nation. I can’t wait to see them get kicked out of free and unfettered democracies. Their bases no longer ha e a place in the wide world. They need to go home and fix their own problems.

      Self-proclaimed.

      To be fair, they helped setup one of the most advanced democratic systems… in Germany. They themselves were never very democratic to begin with.

          Goes to show how good that democratic system was, that even with some nazis in government (though the “more nazis” is clearly a lie) no atrocities could be committed and instead a pretty stable system with solid minority rights emerged.

          Compare that to the US system which only survived on gentlemen’s agreements and people playing by imagined rules, and as soon as someone in the president’s office stops caring about the rules the whole system comes crashing down.

            some nazis in government (though the “more nazis” is clearly a lie)

            Apologise for calling me a liar:
            https://www.telegraph.co.uk/news/2016/10/10/germanys-post-war-justice-ministry-was-infested-with-nazis-prote/ And this is from the nazi loving UK rag.

            OC I expect nothing better than revisionism from a germ, who have fascism in their blood.
            Constantly on display in the ghoul VDLeyen, their pigs beating anti-genocide protesters, their government supporting the genociders and extreme-right trash population.

              Ok, show me a source that says that there were more nazis in government after the fall of the nazi regime than before.

              That’s what you claimed, and that’s a lie.

              It is correct that too many nazis were in government after the recreation of germany, but it’s a lie that there were more after.

              I’m not German, and you have no clue what you are talking about.

    I don’t know that this is unpopular per se but it would be bad politics. The US is too much of an economic powerhouse

    LOL "went from being “upholders of democracy” just after WW2 "
    Never happened.
    They always liked fascism, saved plenty nazis during and right after WW2.
    Welcomed pure fascist states under Franco, Salazar and others in their NATO warmongering gang of thugs and did nothing but topple democracies, steal and loot.
    And this was the same before WW2.

      They actually had Nazi rallies and were very supportive of the nazi party that’s why so many white supremacists in US hate Jews because of Nazi relationships. Let’s just say the KKK had more in common with the Nazi’s than they did with helping Europe.

        And they only chose to ‘fight’ against the nazis when they were sure they had lost (Stalingrad 1943).
        Royally late and with the only purpose of getting a part of Europe under their control before the Soviets got it all and killed their nazi friends.

          Also why so many nazi scientists were imported. Who cares when you already have white supremacy at home about crimes against humanity.

            Everytime they mention the scientist, which is pragmatically understandable.
            Ask them why they saved 1000’s of SS troops that hadnothing to offer and commited massive warcrimes.
            It’s total proof the US/UK supported fascism.
            But you won’t read any of that in the history books.

              I think they always have with capitalism or the funnel system for 1%. No way power goes to like 10 people by system design and everyone says “thats just life”.
