Fuck the Olympics and fuck the American Nazis.
Welcome to the Land of the Free, here's your bill.
Gawd I'm so tired.
Land of the fee, home of the slave 🇺🇸
Home of the Brave (we're terrified of non-white, non-male, non-cis, and/or non-Christian people)
Cut the crap on the "civilized" world farce. If there was any decency the israeli onslaught would be punished. Instead these countries stand by them and do nothing.
Civilised doesn't have to mean flawless. The US is still a horribly barbaric country, and the weapons Israel use to commit genocide come from the US.
Many of the countries in question don't have a military presence that could dwarf the others, nor an army that would willingly fight larger enemies for those morals.
Obviously, I'm not including America in that statement.
You're correct but there is much that can be done without military intervention. The least these nations could have done is a weapons embargo and sanctions. Many other diplomatic levers that can be used but aren't.
Fuck the olympics. It's an oppressive, leeching grift in service of nationalism, imperialism, capitalism, etc.
So it's coming home?
The Olympics may be interesting, but they won't be happening in the United States.
The next American Olympics is scheduled for Summer 2028. America, and the world, will be a much different place by then. I expect that we will have an Olympics of mostly authoritarian nations, and no Democratic nations.
And there will be lots of ludicrous world records set, because they will fuck with the timings. These guys can't do anything without cheating.
I don't think the Olympics will happen at all in the United States in 2028.
I wouldn't be surprised if we had a Nero situation happen at the next Olympics.
Just be careful guys...if it can happen here it can happen to you. Stay frosty out there.
Kick US media out of your country, use opensource software and you'll be better off.
I think Europe had their time. They are nodding knowingly and pitifully at America at how hard it will be to climb out of it.
Nah, the right is on the raise in Europe too. The question is for how long and how far do they get.
Russia is worse then the US is, but the US is working on it. Both are helping out likeminded European groups. Musk was turning up at German and British facist party events for a reason.
...it's harsh times
Are you kidding? Europe is trying it's best to keep up with the USs sprint to the hard right.
Meanwhile how the Canadians treat the natives:
If you think Canada is bad (and it sure is), you should see how the US treated its indiginous peoples.
Come on come on carry on! This has potential. So it's uncle... wotsisname? Uncle Scar? Uncle Sam? Uncle Scam? tricking Simba into going there right? What happens next? I'm intrigued
History is a circle, just like Alabama family trees...
Hmm perhaps
ciiircle historicaaaal.... Just like in aaalabaamaaa.... Faaamily treeees ... I don't know I've never been musically gifted
AFD, National Rally, CPC, and other far right parties standing right behind them
Oh and they are racist against lions ,even have stupid clubs for their hate
I cannot fathom how maple MAGOT 51st staters haven’t looked up the price of insulin in the US vs Canada yet.
Consider all MAGAts cultists. You cannot fathom how fucked in the head they are. You could point this out, any logical person would see how crazy expensive insulin and other medication in the US Healthcare system is ... but MAGAts have no logic whatsoever. They will just say its "fake news" or liberal propaganda.
I am serious. You have to shut MAGA down. These bitches are crazy.
They will complain that the US is paying for Canadian health care.
It would require them to think and then they wouldn’t be maple maggots anymore.
The football world championship is going to be in the US too. The goalies aren't the only ones going to be shot at.
Ice is going to have a field day kidnapping football players
Any non-white team is not going to have a good time.
And here I was worried, that it might end up in a democracy.
My cousin was an Olympic sprinter and that couldn't make me give a fuck about the Olympics. Honestly it just seems like another thing to distract families so they have something to talk about. Also, the committee is basically run by the mob. Hard pass.
It's one of the few things where most of the world fights without anybody dying. We need way more things like the Olympics to remind us we are all part of the same species sharing a collective space ship Earth.
I wish I could at least be like Ed and too stupid to understand how shitty it is here.
Unfortunately, that's how it got this way. Too many Eds.
That was my belief for quite a while. There's certainly no shortage of stupidity, but the real problem is that people do understand the evil shit they vote for, and they fucking love it.
Look at the Trump admin: he didn't trick us into voting for him by giving some 'on paper' bs about why the things he does is somehow good; he just got on stage and started shitting on veterans, disabled people, women, immigrants, etc. The majority of voters looked at that and said "YUP! THAT'S MY GUY!!"
We're (collectively) just fucking evil. Idk if there's a fix for that.
At the end of the movie, the hyenas eat the fallen king.
European grown up with that.
Don't buy american wine for example (not only cause is unbearably sweet), cause of pesticides allowed.
They use fungicides on vineyards in Europe though. In France there are more people diagnosed with Parkinson’s around vineyards than anywhere else in the country
Parkinson's disease can be recognized as an occupational disease for people who have used herbicides, fungicides, or insecticides frequently and for many years in a professional context. The fact that Parkinson's disease is now recognized as an occupational disease means that those affected are entitled to support from the employers' liability insurance association if the disease developed as a result of their occupational activity.
TIL
The US is going to take gold in every event. Mostly because other countries won't be allowed to compete or won't want to.
Gold medals won by other countries are illegal medals!
Stop the (medal) count!
I said it above and I'll say it again...a Nero situation might just happen at the next Olympics and it wouldn't surprise me in the least.
I've always believed that all Olympic countries take part in some kind of enhanced performance drug program.
The poor countries try it and they are easily identified and disqualified
The mid tier countries do it cautiously and sometimes get away with it
The rich countries like the US do it all the time but they are so sophisticated that they can't be caught.
Rich countries have highly developed sports infrastructures that allow better detection of talents and training the talents in the best possible conditions. That is probably already enough to explain the difference in results. No need to look for some drug conspiracy. If your city doesn't have the money to build a swimming pool, you'll never have swimming champions from there.
Russia, a powerhouse, had a ridiculously complex scam going and even they were caught.
They aren't rich in the normal sense, but they are powerful and secretive, so I think they provide a valid counterexample.
Does it go on? I'd believe constantly. Does it get found out? Every time, albeit there's always a short window of success. Do more powerful nations have more success at cheating? Yeah, since the smaller countries can't cheat as well.
But not a conspiracy, just correlation, I think.
We don't go to Ravenholm.
lol I didn’t even think of this. Personally, I think that hosting the Olympics is a really fucking stupid thing for a city to do, so I’m just gonna sit back and laugh.
And yes, I’m American.
I'm chilling in Mexico bruh
Ah yes, because Europe is not slowly turning alt-right.
And who are the sponsors that gladly endorse and fund the European alt-right? Why, it's American billionaires, of course.
At least Germany is in the process of lynching AfD.
“Civilized” is this context is a dog whistle for white. Anti-Arab and anti-indigenous beliefs are taking over both.
A few nights ago, I watched a classic film called "The Battle for Algiers". The movie explored the French occupation of Algeria during the independence movement of the late 50s/early 60s.
And let me tell you, "civilized" France was doing some curiously unciviled shit by the end.
I love the Battle of Điện Biên Phủ. Don’t know if there’s a movie of it.
“These stupid primitives that we’ve denied sovereignty and exploited couldn’t possibly beat us with anti aircraft weapons!”
Fuck all colonizers. Fuck the U.S. for getting involved after the Vietnamese thoroughly said, “no, we want to rule ourselves.”
I think you need to read the comic again.
\
It's calling the USA (white) uncivilized, and everywhere else (mostly not white) civilized.
Is it or did you just really want to use dog whistle in a sentence and rant about whites?
The meme implies everywhere except the US is civilized so you screaming about racism is likely just brain rot.
Ah yes, using white as a noun, the hallmark of a sane and reasonable person.

So much freedom, it makes me sick
I've been 1000 times, and I'm never going again.
That's my part.
Dang I live in the United States and I don't think I've been here 1000 times.
Born and raised 30 minutes from Buffalo, for 45 years, plus a 3 year stint driving airport limo, sometimes multiple times per day,
I'm a few hours away now, but I haven't crossed since 2019.
Define interesting
If you really think the US will struggle to host the olympics, it might be time to leave the basement once in a while.
Global sports events have never been hosted by governments with terrible human rights records right?
Checks History
No no no noooooo.
Mufasa then proceeds to murder an indigenous person and give a standing ovation to an SS veteran. Simba nods and sends ten billion more to Israel.
Btw, I recall a kid in northern Italy which had a third nipple growing cause hormons from Us meat in rhe school's food before UE got in.
No thx.
Iirc that's actually pretty common. Well, maybe not 'common' but way less rare than you'd expect - it's one of those things that goes undiagnosed most of the time cuz people think it's just a mole and don't put any thought into it.
Genetically speaking, we have 'milk lines' similar to like dogs or some shit - the code is there for two rows of three (four?) nipples along the length of your abdomen. That code is just an inactive evolutionary artifact, but some genetic fuckup can toggle it back on.
...that said, I don't think hormones are a factor, just genetics. Probably still don't eat our food though; most of it's just a wad of sugar, salt, and grease, and diabetes and high bloodpressure will cause a lot more problems than a bonus nipple.
bonus nipple.
Phrasing it like that makes me want one
