    This is Lemmy, the vast majority of Americans here lean hard left. We knew. What exactly were we supposed to do? Die immediately in an immature revolution? Magically devise the perfect argument to overcome a century of anti-left propaganda?

      This reminds me of a recurrent thing in life: someone competes following a set of rules, and the other player doesn’t follow them. Of course that gives them an advantage.

      There are two logical options to make the game fair again:

      1)finding a way to make the second player follow the original rules

      2)accepting the new game with its changed rules

      No, you’re right, you’ve done plenty. You should feel very pleased with your effort. You deserve a rest, even. Have yourself a nap and I promise nobody will wake you up to tell you how goofy it is that you just called Americans on Lemmy “hard left” 😅

          Did you miss the part where they don’t live in the US? Do you lack reading comprehension or is this just your go to thought stopping cliche?

            Ah yes, they live in the mystical land of Canada, that does no wrong at all, and definitely hasnt done ANYTHING wrong, especially to their indigenous people. the mystical far off country far away from Canada, where there’s nothing he could do but spew hate! Do you realize how far away Canada is? All he can do is advocate violence, can you imagine how hard it would be to get to the US?

              Fucking Americans. “Why can’t you do it for us? Just cross a boarder into a country descending into fascism and stop it so that we don’t have to do anything.”

              Criticized for not taking action and the response is “can’t you do it for me?”

              There’s your next thought stopping cliche. Every country is fascist so there’s no reason to do anything about it.
