I'd like to thank everyone for my most upvoted post on lemmy ever. Not only have you upvoted it to the top for like 2 days you commented the shit out of it. I'd like to take this opportunity to say fuck the mods of this instance. This was my second post coming off a 30 day ban and I want to say these fucking mods have been nothing but bitches. I've never been more attacked on any other instance, subreddit, forum, etc. then I have been in this fucking instance. Not only have I been attacked I've been told my memes arent memey enough again and again.

I'll be honest, I do not know how to make a meme but I keep posting just to piss in these mods cheerios.

Thanks lemmy.world/politicalmemes for being the worst community I've ever been a part of.

Edit2: What a joke

Look here Europe. I don't know how well y'all understand the states, but it's unfathomably large. People in the big cities can definitely organize and revolt. But, against who?

The power is concentrated in Washington DC. It's in an extremely inconvenient location to get to, and I'm starting to understand why.

The last person who was able to amass a large enough following to organize people and march all the damn way to Washington DC was assassinated by the FBI - more specifically J. Edgar Hoover, one of the OG Incel MAGATs. The last president that was able to advocate for the same rights was assassinated by the same group.

Malcom X could see that the only way the US government would change was through speaking the language it knew, but he, too, was taken out by the FBI.

The billionaires in power speak the same language. They wear children as meat shields. They spark violent rhetoric. They won't hesitate to take out a figurehead before he becomes too powerful like King, JFK, and Malcom X.

Because Europe is not Russia?

The distance from the UK is significantly smaller than from me to Washington DC.

Sure, but do you know what border checks are?

Because russians dont spend most of their time bragging how they are the only free country in the world since some toilet paper with bullshit written on it says citizens must use guns to protect against tyranny.

Youre gonna fucking love the gestapo raids with the new head of fbi btw.

Because weapons are not sold on every corner in Russia.

Russia has higher murder rate than any European country and higher than US. And with how corrupt the military is all, anyone with the equivalent of 100usd can bribe a logistics officer to lose an AK in the paperwork.

You dont need guns to murder people.

Also Russia has plenty of windows.

Those are marked as suicides.

You aren't going to hit anything with an ak47.

Getting into Russia is difficult, getting out again is next to impossible. Besides anyone in Russia who doesn't speak russian would be immediately arrested long before they got to Moscow. It's a dumb comparison. If the country I live in fell to fascism I absolutely would take the fight to them.

The fact is that you people allowed this to happen and you're allowing it to continue. Europe would not give a single solitary fuck if it weren't for the fact that the USA has been ingraining themselves into all parts of international politics for decades, and your recent fuck up is causing problems for everyone.

How many dictators are closer to you than Trump is to most of us?

What a stupid fucking argument this is. The person you're responding to us 100% correct. Educate yourself.
