I don't know anyone pretending they aren't broke in America...I know a lot of good people struggling paycheck to paycheck and that's it. I love how Lemmy has become this echo chamber of hate for Americans when y'all are just as fucked in Europe and other countries too with so many similar or different issues. Imagine a little compassion for all people rather than assuming "America bad because America". Just so incredibly sad and stupid to see how dumb so many people are.. that kind of thought process is exactly the same type of people that vote for trump that have this same attitude about "insert race or country here". Y'all need a reality check, yesterday...
I'm American
In previous centuries with colonialism Europe was the cause of much disgrace in the world.
After WWII with neo colonialism it was either us or ussr imposing their way of life and values over the media, but overly exploiting resources and weakening both local economy and healthy politicians and putting dictators everywhere.
us bad fame still didn't catch up with all the bad stuff they did and are still doing.
