    Damn, never noticed I couldn’t say stuff like “the US is a shitshow” over here. The agents on my door were always so nice as well!

    Buggers, guess I’ll have to buy some Apple stocks now and pleasure myself over a picture of Abraham Lincoln.

      Try praising a US adversary state or mentioning the century of US imperialism and war crimes

        NO ONE IS GETTING BANNED FOR CRITISIZING THE US HERE. In fact, it’s the norm here. Now, can you tell me how much I can badmouth the ccp on ml???

        Dude, there were literal happy posts all over the place when Kissinger passed. There are US-critical memes on Lemmy and the Fedi all the time, in addition to those making fun of Russia, China, communism etc. Most people are aware that the US is shit. However they’re also aware that the USSR back then and China right now are also huge piles of garbage, politically speaking (country and people sure are nice!).

        Has it ever cross your mind that most people ain’t pissed because you’re anti-US, but because you’re pro-shit?

          So cool that you’re allowed to criticize the US except you just happen to believe everything it says about everything it actually does so you’re never in conflict with it at all ever

      You can say whatever you like if nobody cares.

      Say something bad about liberalism, NATO, or Ukraine or something good about China or the USSR that threatens the narratives the mods are invested in, and you’re liable to have your comment removed for “misinformation”, especially if you cite academic works.
