What/where is this view?
Why would you convert the perfectly sensical units?
I would say that’s pretty silly.
You’re posting from lemmy.ml but talking about lemmygrad.ml
Am I missing something, or is this supposed to be a random string of unrelated words?
I guess the issue is that it’s becoming far right
Not that weird. It’s basically cheesy beans on toast.
Sounds more like an Australian trait
In life you either cry, laugh, love or succumb to raging nationalism.
Nice range of colours!
I’m so annoyed at the timing of this, I’m in a place far enough north to get decent views of it in winter (but it is always cloudy). Right now we don’t get full night so at 1am, the peak of darkness, it wasn’t super visible.
Freedom of speech. Except the speech we don’t like.
I have encountered this “American social issues transplanted” hand waving a lot in Europe. For example, I know a lot of Swedes who say this about a bunch of casually racist stuff (proclaiming Sweden to be very anti-racist). Meanwhile up north you see a lot of Classic American cars which are often casually emblazoned with Confederate flags and even displayed in proximity to Nazi memorabilia. Down south you have a rising right-wing party support fuelled by fear of immigrants from Africa/Middle East (eg. The non-white ones).
I understand you’re trying to educate yourself and that’s great, don’t take this as dunking on you more, as I feel like you’re in the smart minority by trying to learn and reason. It just really bugs me when I hear people say it’s a US problem. A lot of Europe is holding a lot of racist views (and in a lot of cases, horrific colonial history) and then turn around to say things like “why are my football players kneeling, BLM is an American issue”.
Is there anything we don’t let our billionaires do?
If you were in the other thread about these bombings yesterday, you’d see that viewpoint is basically what the US teaches in school. It’s disturbing to see that so many people actually believe this was for the good of humanity.
