The amount of updates confirms this was more than likely everyone's first thought

I get tired of ppl trying to lay Trump and his policies on the feet of black ppl. They tired to do so by claiming the black vote swayed the last election and now they're trying to claim theres this flood of black ICE agents. Both of which are just not true in the slightest

Im in my mid 30s and my friends range from their 60's to their 20's. Plus Im a black dude. If theres one thing i can easily recognize its white arrogance and you're embarrassing need to sweep it under the rug is reminiscent of America. Europe is LITERALLY the home of white supremacy and you went around the world ransacking thE globe yet somehow you think it just magically ended after WW2.

Youre probably one of those city folks who never venture out into the country side and see the ignorance and hatred of those in rural communities who feel left behind. You yourself exist in a thought bubble because you probably only surround yourself with those that agree with you. Germany thought the Social Democrats would never work with the AFD but look what happened.

You can fight all you want but the biggest issue in american politics isnt leftist giving up. Its centrist siding with facist and thats exactly what's happening across Europe. You can be as hopeful as you want but as long as right wing politicians stoke the fans of hatred vs immigrants and ppl keep falling for it you're screwed. Id honestly say you're dumber because you can see the playbook playing in real time in America but you all keep falling for it. Imagine supporting the National Front, UK conservatives, AFD, or FDI after you saw what Trump was doing. Yet here we are

Hopefully it becomes a thing

I live in Germany genius. I get to see first hand how your all easily scared and vote against your best interest all because of those "mmigrants". The AFD continue to get more and more votes every year. Italy voted in a facist sympathizer and Spain has nostalgia for Franco. You're thinking is exactly why things are getting worse. You have this holier than thou arrogance that makes you think you can never slip back into facism. And I get to watch all the same talking points ppl said about trump never getting elected get repeated while the population votes more and more right wing nuts in.

Living in France, Germany, and Spain has taught me you Europeans are all just as stupid, naive, and arrogant as Americans. The funniest part is all my german friends say most of Europe is 5 years away from looking exactly like the US

Edit: also European arrogance is honestly worse. American arrogance is from more of a place of ignorance/propaganda and white supremacy. European arrogance is more smug/vain but also comes from white supremacy

Morpheus literally says they dont know who striked first. The Matrix doesnt mention anything about how or why the war started. Just that it started. The Animatrix tells you that the war started because the robot capital had basically destroyed the global economy so humans tried to wipe them out

Was referring to the Animatrix 1st and 2nd Renaissance genius.

The Matrix hits different once you realize everything was humanity’s fault

Imagine gobbling the nuts of the man that had you cowering for your life on the senate floor Jan 6. Senator Lindsey "Bitch-made" Graham

Most of the comments in this thread show exactly why Europe needs to get away from the US as far as possible, even if they do vote differently next time.

They won't. Most European countries are just like the US. Only 5 or 6 years behind. It's full of stupid emotional ppl who want simple solutions to difficult problems. They want to be able blame all their problems on someone else. Friedrich Merz, Macron, Keir Starmer are all versions of centrist democrats in their respective countries and all they're doing are leaving the public pissed off. All it would take is a charismatic right winger to come in and I guarantee things would look exactly the same as the US

It should read “You’re hurting us now and not just the people who are brown, so that makes us mad!”

Let's be real US voting behavior has always leaned towards fucking over any one not light, bright, and white. No other group has consistently voted republican as white ppl. Hating liberals is incredibly recent. Liberals loved Clinton when he was cutting off social benefits because the idea was black ppl were the primary users.
