Why are you using the "Spaceball dollar" for most international trade?

Why are you buying your weapons from the Spaceball?

Why do you make deals conceding power to the Spaceball?

Why does the Spaceball get a UN veto?

WHY

Need Frank Castle in the top photo. Bottom picture should replace center photo, and bottom photo should be replaced by the video of that orangutan driving a golf cart or a photo of a group monkeys, some masterbating and some flinging excrement.

It used to be that I hated government, not the people. Now even with people I have to consider there are openly fascist ones supporting Trump.

Government and people are tightly linked. Governments tend not to stray too far from what their people believe, at least openly, since they want to keep power, and their heads. The fact that the US is now openly doing what its been doing for decades behind closed doors and pretending not to do, means that they at the very least hold the belief that a large portion of the population is willing, open to, and/or indifferent to their actions, finally. Makes sense though, since most US americans are disgusting, racist, fascist, self-centred isolationist rubbish, and have been for a long time. The self aware ones, or those who become self-aware after invading some far off country and realising that they are in fact, the baddies (only after torching a village or tormenting the local populace) are few and far between.

I saw a video recently of a US soldier in Iraq or Afghanistan, Id say sometime in the 2000s (2000-2010), complaining that they're not allowed to retaliate (shoot is actually the word he used) children who it seens regularly threw rocks at their vehicles along that particular stretch of road, and he didnt seem to realise that he was the invader, nor that those are fucking kids and what he was saying was abnormal and sick...

I would just say don't do Spaceballs wrong like that... But no.

The actions of the US government have been so destructive that they are comparable to the empire in the dumbest way possible.

Yes and no. Unfortunately, they are not entirely incompetent in the crimes they are commiting, which is why they still inflict a tremendous amount of damage and suffering.
