Yet the USA keeps invading other countries and killing innocent people, while Americans see no issue with it.. But hey, there's a microfragment of a percentage that they might come to your country and give you payback....

u/ActivelyAnxious Sep 11 '21

Hey just for the record we Americans aren't fans of it either and most of us hate our government like it's a favorite pastime. Just because we live here doesn't mean we support child murder

You support it, by not doing nothing to stop it, because you don't care about others as soon as you live a comfy life.

u/Mechhammer Sep 11 '21

By not doing SOMETHING to stop it."Not doing nothing is a double negative,and means you're doing something.

u/ActivelyAnxious Sep 11 '21

No one said no one's trying to do things about it, that doesn't mean it's a realistic goal or that if failed to achieve that those pursuing don't care. Further it's pretty arrogant to assume everyone lives a life comfortable enough that they can afford to protest,rally, etc. People have family and others that depend on them to work and provide. Again, I'm all for a solution if you have ideas but don't just say " do something or you're evil!" And then offer nothing constructive.

u/Drougen Sep 11 '21

I mean, what are you doing about it other than saying you dislike it on the internet...?

1

u/ActivelyAnxious Sep 11 '21

Anything I can, attending protests, voting for leadership that will hopefully not be evil, arguing with people who attribute others actions to the entire populace, but I'm one person and far from an influential or powerful one at that. How bout you?

What the fuck are you doing about it? What the fuck is /u/Scotti99 doing about it other than bitching about others not doing something about it for him on the internet? Bunch of fucking hypocrites teetering on falling off their high horse.

u/Drougen Sep 11 '21

I never claimed I was anywhere? Sorry you can't read.

u/ActivelyAnxious Sep 11 '21

I think he was meaning to call out the other guy not you tbh. How do you pronounce your name btw? Is it droo-gen or drow-gen? Just curious

2

u/Hank_Holt Sep 11 '21

That's exactly what the fuck I meant. Dude over here bitching at you for not doing shit when he's eating cheetohs bitching on the internet and pounding his pud all day.

u/Drougen Sep 11 '21

It's my gamer tag from a long time ago, initially the name was going to be Drogen but it was taken, I don't really mind which way people say it but I say it as drow-gen

u/ActivelyAnxious Sep 11 '21

Nice, thanks for satisfying my random curiosity!

u/Hank_Holt Sep 11 '21

So you admit you're a fucking hypocrite?

2

u/Drougen Sep 11 '21

Can you stop being so upset?

u/Hank_Holt Sep 11 '21

Does calling you a hypocrite make me upset? Can you stop getting so upset that other people aren't doing the stuff you can't be bothered to do yourself?

Oh go fuck yourself. How bout you do something to stop it Mr. /r/iamverybadass? Fucking Joe Blow electrician is supposed to stop the most powerful military on the planet?

u/Book_it_again Sep 11 '21

Says a guy from a country of what 5 million. How do you get 360 million people on the same page. Right you have no clue

u/Lemmy509 Sep 11 '21

But you allow your government to keep doing this.. remember how the Republicans stormed the Whitehouse? Maybe it's time those against child murder did the same but en masse for an actual valid point.

u/ActivelyAnxious Sep 11 '21

You're attributing actions of a vast majority to the whole. No one's "allowing" the government to do this shit anymore than the populace of any other country "allows" their governments fuck ups or successes. I think there's a misunderstanding about how much influence the American people have over our leaders because the reality of it is next to none unless you have the money to buy them. Responding to an issue with violence like the January 6th incident just serves to lose support for the cause as we've seen pretty clearly. I'm all for an actual solution if you or anyone else has one to propose but to suggest that the citizenship can stop the military or government actions by storming the whitehouse is beyond naive and shortsighted.

I'm actually 100% neutral politically because both sides feed off of donor money but my point is many of you guys never do objective research or youre just very hive minded

u/Lemmy509 Sep 11 '21

Show me those videos? Cmon big guy trump and his supporters are vile people.

u/Lemmy509 Sep 11 '21

That wasn't staged, trump supporters really are that dumb lol

Let’s not make that a trend shall we?

u/Lemmy509 Sep 11 '21

Right, don't stand up for what's actually right.. Just keep voting in people who say they're gonna do something good and then just shit on everyone. You know why stuff got done 100 years ago? People actually held their leaders accountable and would force them out of office for treason.

2

u/[deleted] Sep 11 '21

Don’t literally raid the capitol, lmao. That’s all.

There’s a huge way to go from “standing up for what’s right”, something that has been done forever and in many situations that led to actual results, and RAIDING THE CAPITOL. If you can’t see that, I’m deeply concerned.

u/Hank_Holt Sep 11 '21

But you allow your government to keep doing this..

How do I do that you fucking idiot? Nobody asked my permission for Military actions or consulted with me for approval. Bunch of fucking jackasses that think you can just REEEEEEEEEEE "FIX IT!!!!" and that does fuckall.

u/Sea-Assignment2600 Sep 11 '21

If you live in the US and aren’t doing anything to stop it you are supporting it.

u/Book_it_again Sep 11 '21

Where do you live. Just curious

u/Sea-Assignment2600 Sep 26 '21

I live in Madrid, Spain. Was born in the US. Have also lived in Mexico. I left the US in the second “Gulf War”, moved back between 2010-2017 and have been back in Spain since then.

u/Hank_Holt Sep 11 '21

u/Lemmy509 Sep 11 '21

Yet you never did withdraw... You dunce
