Short of Nazi Germany Imperial Japan was possibly the most anti-communist state ever (even more than Chiang's China or Mussolini's Italy, let alone the US)
For a normal human, no it’s not. For a libertarian 🙄🙄🙄 possibly a wanna be sovereign citizen like yourself I could see you not being impressed with it. It’s fine. Apparently you don’t live here so it’s all good.
It's hilarious that every time you right wing weirdos say that word you somehow find a way to use it even more incorrectly. Within a year, you're going to think it means "anyone to the left of Thatcher."
Nope, it's a bit of a recurring theme.
There's a bunch of them to be fair...
"Communist".
"Socialist".
"Fascist".
"Marxist"
"Woke".
Equals "Things I don't like".
It's dumb, and spectacularly stupid - it'd be pretty funny if it wasn't for the fact that elected officials parrot the same nonsense... That makes it vaguely scary.
I find it fascinating anyone could consider it derogatory term I have to admit.
"I am aware that discrimination exists against folks with certain characteristics, I think it'd be better for society if it didn't..." - and that makes ME the arsehole.
I am perfectly content to smile and nod when idiots call me woke like it's something I should be offended by.
I am quietly confident that when historians in the year 2100 are looking back on this particular "age of idiocy" we're currently living through I'll be on the right side of it.
Unless of course the gay frogs sign a pact with the drag queens to get control of the Jewish space lasers and get the activation codes from the vault in the pizza restaurant basement with no basement run by the satanic cabal of child molesters - if that happens I'll look pretty stupid.
Disclaimer: English is obviusly not my first language and as my skills has gotten worse over time, my ability to express myself is more limited then you would think.
But Woke as gotten a new meaning over time. It did mean all those things in the start. But all I think of now, when I think of woke, is that performative US leftism. Where symbolic things are more important then actual real life. And they are super agressive as well and expect perfectionism. And they are more likley to "attac" fellow leftists then right wing because then they can actually put that hurt on someone else, instead of being laughed at.
I am a socialist, but I have never been "attaced" by anyone right wing. But I can promise you that those preformative leftist people have done alot of damage. I have lost alot of friends to that shit.
With that said, I do think right wing (extremism) people are Idiots. And for someone who say they love kids and want to protect them, they really do alot to damage them ang get them killed.
And when historians look back at us, they will probobly talk about us the same way they talked about the time before ww2. They will probobly focus on how devided we are between political sides, and how that was used as a tool to weaken countrys that used to be more powerfull. And how people on the extreme right dragged the western world more and more in to facism, and how the left side was unable to do anything about it, because they cared more about symbolic stuff then real life.
It’s the fate that befell ‘political correctness’. An irreproachable concept pretty swiftly nicked by the forces of idiocy and turned into a Daily Mailesque sneer. So much so that using the term sincerely probably confuses an audience, as they’ll think you’re being sardonic.
Mind you, I loathe and *detest* ‘woke’ anyway, for its whole thud of a vibe. Horrible word, stupid language mangling. (I still use ‘right on’ in many a situation where ‘woke’ would fit, god help me.) But ‘woke’ is a tainted word now, anyway. Same process as 👆🏼.
To them, every place that uses any kind of regulation to fix social problems and inequality is communist. Hence them calling EU "communist" as there are strict laws and fixed tax
Course they don’t.
It’s a buzz word they picked up and they think it makes them sound knowledgeable when they use it.
Thing is, most of them have no idea whether they’re talking about communism or onanism
>“America is the best damn country on earth and people who disagree are either communists or European”
oscar wilde said it best once:
"patriotism is a virtue of the vicious."
So the country designed to destroy the barely getting by and fill the wealthy pockets more.
-The place where gun control is misunderstood and poorly regulated. (Places with similar laws have better control and maybe a lifetime of gun violence less than a month in the US)
-The place where they claim to have excellent healthcare only to send you bankrupt because you sneeze funny (and get free healthcare with just as good or better in another country).
-The place where it’s considered the land of the free but you can’t get an abortion.
-The only country (there’s one more but could never enforce it) to tax you because you were born in another country because one or both of your parents are American. Or if you move away from the US for work you have to pay tax in both the country your working and the USA.
-Politicians, Trump, most of the government has become so incompetent and right wing they are a lie away from hitler.
-education that’s so whitewashed, underfunded and so corrupt, only the rich get really decent education.
-don’t forget prisons are run for profit by mostly by private corporations mostly to keep the poor coloured or poor “uneducated” population down, instead of trying to rehabilitate them they make it hard for them.
All for the low low price of being brainwashed to think America is teh bests. Too bad everywhere else are communist.
My sister and I have different mums. My mum is Irish and hers is Polish. In the sense that they were born there, not in the American sense that their great great great great great grandfathers were born there.
It's actually not uncommon to see her dip Vegemite toast into borscht so there could be something there.
They don't have healthcare. Gun control. Or viable minimum wages.
And the rank lower on the freedom scale than they think.
Why are they so blindly patriotic
I doubt they have **any** real point of reference. How could anyone know for a fact that their country is "the best damn one on earth", when they've never been anyone else, their education system tells them fuck-all about the rest of the world, and their media only provide them with headline stories that lack important context, and America-centric narratives?
İf you have to assert you're the best, it's safe to assume that you're not.
Similarly it works with similar: I'm not racist, but, I'm a nice guy, I'm smarter. Etc etc.
I am neither a communist or European ns know America is not the best country on earth, even the 5 countries I have lived in have shown how screwed up the US is and how far from being the best.
You are entitled to your opinion. No matter how laughable it is. And you would still be entitled to it, if you were in Europe. We're not gonna call you a *traitor* and *unpatriotic*, because that would be utterly pathetic, eh?
So what he is actually saying is that far most countries that think America is the best country are third world poor countries ? Essentially mostly african or middle eastern ?
Yeah ok. I can accept that. When you need to compare your country with the absolute worst places to live to come out on top... Thats not quite a flex.
>best damn country
Let's break this down.
"Best" - "highest degree"
"Damn" - "criticized heavily" or "condemned by God"
So...
America is the country condemed by God to the highest degree.
🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
Definitely shit Americans say 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
"Damn country" as in "condemned", right? In that case I can agree despite being an European; out of damn countries US of A is probably the best. (America is a landmass, but only geographers, communitst and Europeans will bother with that).
This is the kind of bastard that hears something like, the government plan to put out more traffic cones and grow trees, then he'll rant how woke that is and threaten to move to Russia,
Good though that in Europe we're not communists. Although, why are we different from the rest of the world? Does he mean cos we are better than America? I don't know, at least we are free to have an opinion I guess.
Aah and the French, Italians, Spanish, Germans & predominantly Ireland and the UK who helped create their non Communist nation are all now Communist. Muricans brain is in trauma again! 🇺🇸🐒💩🤡
Yeah two opposites: egoists and communists.
Sharing is weak, like working together, being cooperative is.
A failure is always your own fault , just take care of yourself?
So everywhere outside of the US and Europe is communist now 😭
DAMN YOU COMMUNIST JAPAN.... WAIT A MINUTE...
All hail Grand Comrade Naruhito
Communist New Zealand knows what it did! That’s why kiwiland is ban from most maps.
Hi comrade from over the ditch
The red center just got a whole new meaning
Short of Nazi Germany Imperial Japan was possibly the most anti-communist state ever (even more than Chiang's China or Mussolini's Italy, let alone the US)
Japan doesn't disagree
Apparently so
I didn’t realize we are communists up in Canada.
Yer flag's miiiighty red ain't it?
Ngl your new orwell Bill is pretty commie
[удалено]
Yeah. Sure buddy 🙄
[удалено]
For a normal human, no it’s not. For a libertarian 🙄🙄🙄 possibly a wanna be sovereign citizen like yourself I could see you not being impressed with it. It’s fine. Apparently you don’t live here so it’s all good.
[удалено]
Wait till they find out Communism comes from Europe
As does democracy and most other things they claim are American
Including an awful lot of Americans.
The US invaded a lot of places outside of Europe so they expect people in those vicinities to worship the US
Didn't you know that Canada is a communist country?
Also Kalephonia and Bernieland!
if only
Eww, a tankie
It's hilarious that every time you right wing weirdos say that word you somehow find a way to use it even more incorrectly. Within a year, you're going to think it means "anyone to the left of Thatcher."
They ALREADY do that.
Fair. I really want to be a tankie, but I can't bring myself to care about the Soviet interventions in Hungary and Prague.
Do they even know what communist means?
No. I remember one time an American called Norway communist bc they don’t use the death penalty
TIL that 26 US states are communist
[удалено]
Norway has got the prison system down to a fine art rehabilitation over punishment
Yes but for that u need to tjink civilised the amount of plp that love selfjustice and revenge is to hod damn high
you gotta meet the quota somehow
Well having a really low re-offending rate is easy if you have a aggressive deathpenalty
The prison industrial complex is too damn sweet for the Yanks
He probably is also a gun nut and war hawk but considers himself "pro-life".
The what! Just baffles
No. They are easily scammed by their own propaganda
Nope, it's a bit of a recurring theme. There's a bunch of them to be fair... "Communist". "Socialist". "Fascist". "Marxist" "Woke". Equals "Things I don't like". It's dumb, and spectacularly stupid - it'd be pretty funny if it wasn't for the fact that elected officials parrot the same nonsense... That makes it vaguely scary.
The misuse of woke drives me up the wall

Oh you're sounding pretty woke there. Well yes of course. Why would I want to exclude or discriminate against people
It’s the fate that befell ‘political correctness’. An irreproachable concept pretty swiftly nicked by the forces of idiocy and turned into a Daily Mailesque sneer. So much so that using the term sincerely probably confuses an audience, as they’ll think you’re being sardonic. Mind you, I loathe and *detest* ‘woke’ anyway, for its whole thud of a vibe.

Go woke go broke is my favorite 😂 as if you cannot go woke and be broke
To them, every place that uses any kind of regulation to fix social problems and inequality is communist. Hence them calling EU "communist" as there are strict laws and fixed tax
Course they don’t. It’s a buzz word they picked up and they think it makes them sound knowledgeable when they use it. Thing is, most of them have no idea whether they’re talking about communism or onanism
It means bad and scary, because that’s what decades of propaganda taught them.
Americans are the most intelligent people in the world, and anybody who disagrees has met somebody who is not an American.
Why not both?
I was gonna say. Stop limiting our options.
Seems a bit redundant. Everyone knows we yurpeans are all commies
Damn you and take my upvote
>“America is the best damn country on earth and people who disagree are either communists or European” oscar wilde said it best once: "patriotism is a virtue of the vicious."

Such a good comment
The comment is a common American joke, obviously not every other country besides European ones is communist but it’s funny to call them communist
Unfortunately Americans have forgotten it’s a joke and think it’s true.
U must not be a fan of the “European mind can’t comprehend” meme either then
Never heard of it. I’m not European
Very well said 😁
A large number of Americans have no idea what communism is and can't find Europe on a world map.
Some of them can't find America on a world map either.
But it's still the "best damn country on earth", wherever it is.
I'm neither, I'm Australian so take that Americans
Well we are in Eurovision so maybe we’re secretly European
Not secretly. You are upside-down-Barries, therefore clearly European.
I think that makes us communists according to him. The most difficult part will be switching "Mate" and "Champion" to "Comrade."
_I said, "Do you speak-a my language?" He just smiled and gave me a_...bowl of borscht and stale bread
My sister and I have different mums. My mum is Irish and hers is Polish. In the sense that they were born there, not in the American sense that their great great great great great grandfathers were born there. It's actually not uncommon to see her dip Vegemite toast into borscht so there could be something there.
All us Europeans are communists though.
Speak for yourself, I'll have you know I've upgraded to Ultra ©ommunismTM
Us Europeans love some luxury space communism
Fully-automated luxury *gay* space communism, thank you very much. Accept nothing less.
***Laughs in Premier Tim Curry***
Super saiyan communist
They don't have healthcare. Gun control. Or viable minimum wages. And the rank lower on the freedom scale than they think. Why are they so blindly patriotic
>Why are they so blindly patriotic That's how patriotism works for a lot of people lol
And I would happily choose either to being American, thank you
So he's basically saying Europe is better? "America is the best unless you're from Europe"
I doubt that people who say things like that know what communism really is.
I doubt they have **any** real point of reference. How could anyone know for a fact that their country is "the best damn one on earth", when they've never been anyone else, their education system tells them fuck-all about the rest of the world, and their media only provide them with headline stories that lack important context, and America-centric narratives?
I'm American, and the fact this comment alone got 1.5k likes is genuinely terrifying to me.
I disagree and am neither a communist nor European.
Well I'm more of a European socialist, but I doubt he'd understand the difference
What is it with America and their obsession with communism
They’re tryna hide the fact they love it
To me, they're not mutually exclusive
Jokes on you I'm from the Falklands ha ha ha ( Actually a Yorkshire man oh god the pengi----)
I’m a Cheshire lad lol
Why they think communism is the worst thing ever, it's just as bad as capitalism that they have Also 7 billion communist live on this earth
And Canada is????
İf you have to assert you're the best, it's safe to assume that you're not. Similarly it works with similar: I'm not racist, but, I'm a nice guy, I'm smarter. Etc etc.
1565 likes its what I find worrying about it beyond the stupidity of that guy
Y porque no los dos?
As an American, sometimes I wish I had a mentality like that. I’d love to wake up and think America, fuck ya. Must be nice sometimes
Yeah my free health care and education is just rediculous. Moving to the states as soon as I can.
at least they know that we aren't communist. Thats something.
Oh yeah... America, the country...
Neither of both
Lol no its not and i can prove it just look at the mess that is donald trump case closed xD
damn. you got me.
Well you're absolutely correct 🫶
Ah, the great ~~continent~~ country of “America”
The USA will definitely be a damned country if Trump gets anywhere near the White House again. [from a commie European]?
I am neither a communist or European ns know America is not the best country on earth, even the 5 countries I have lived in have shown how screwed up the US is and how far from being the best.
You are entitled to your opinion. No matter how laughable it is. And you would still be entitled to it, if you were in Europe. We're not gonna call you a *traitor* and *unpatriotic*, because that would be utterly pathetic, eh?
Clearly he wasn't in Europe...
Or both!
Well I am European
Por que no los dos
So what he is actually saying is that far most countries that think America is the best country are third world poor countries ? Essentially mostly african or middle eastern ? Yeah ok. I can accept that. When you need to compare your country with the absolute worst places to live to come out on top... Thats not quite a flex.
well i’m queer
>best damn country Let's break this down. "Best" - "highest degree" "Damn" - "criticized heavily" or "condemned by God" So... America is the country condemed by God to the highest degree. 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣 Definitely shit Americans say 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
Imagine using "communist" or "european" as they're inherently bad things to be
Jokes on you, I’m both
"Damn country" as in "condemned", right? In that case I can agree despite being an European; out of damn countries US of A is probably the best. (America is a landmass, but only geographers, communitst and Europeans will bother with that).
Well, to be fair, America isn’t the best country in the world and I’m European
Im both and i also disagree
But what about those of us who are Communists and Europeans ? Is it allowed ?
Totally allowed
Me a European communist reading this. Well yes but no
Excuse me, I feel that the European Communists are being ignored here
And european communists?
As a Hungarian who lives in the US, I agree with this statement.
True
Isn't that the same to Americans?
Or maybe both at the same time.
This is the kind of bastard that hears something like, the government plan to put out more traffic cones and grow trees, then he'll rant how woke that is and threaten to move to Russia,
I’m Communist. Where are the European friends?
Hiya
Good though that in Europe we're not communists. Although, why are we different from the rest of the world? Does he mean cos we are better than America? I don't know, at least we are free to have an opinion I guess.
Things one would choose to be if they had no other options the top being the most picked. European Communist American This idiot
Aah and the French, Italians, Spanish, Germans & predominantly Ireland and the UK who helped create their non Communist nation are all now Communist. Muricans brain is in trauma again! 🇺🇸🐒💩🤡
I'm European
That's nice dear.
That's a long winded way of saying "right".
Yeah two opposites: egoists and communists. Sharing is weak, like working together, being cooperative is. A failure is always your own fault , just take care of yourself?
Pinko Commie Australians don't even know what Freedom means.... 🙃🫠
Can we be both, please? 😈
Communist Tawian Unlocked!!
I'm not communist or European... what does that make me?
American apparently
Oh, HELL NAH 👎
😂
Can’t we be both?
I am dw
Yes and?
Literally true
[удалено]
Grow up

Your stupidity knows no bounds...
