      you mean The US government. Americans don’t like it as much as you and saying anything else is akin to saying racist shit.

              would love to, unfortunately the agencies that are responsible for investigating that are currently under the control of the group that potentially faked election results.

              though, the evidence of their corruption and desperate desire to control future elections is obvious at this point.

                You sound a lot like Trump. He accused the democrats falsely of rigging elections. Wait I though you guys claimed that Harris lost because of palestine but konw you say she lost because the election was rigged? Like expected you are a clown

                  your personal attacks are weak.

                  If I was Republican, being compared to Trump would elate me. so why even attempt to compare me to him? unless your intention is to anger me because you know I’m not a Republican, at which point your argument is invalid that I “sound like Trump” because only Trump sounds like Trump and anyone against him is usually educated and knowledgeable. so I’ll take your personal attack as a complement.

                  Harris lost for many reasons, most of all because she was a shell candidate for more of the same democratic weaknesses. she failed to compel voters to vote for her because she attempted to sway dedicated republican voters.

                  Americans lost because we couldn’t unite as one for this one instance to stop the hemorrhaging of our democracy and vote for a candidate that wasn’t Donal Trump, so…we got Donald Trump…again.

                  again, I would absolutely love to give you evidence of election tampering but unfortunately the group that gained the most for the dismissal of that evidence are the ones responsible for allowing that evidence to be collected right now. though, it’s important to notice the actions the current administration is taking to disenfranchise voters across the nation just before an important election takes place. if this is how the act now, while in power it’s not that far of a stretch to imagine what they are capable of before.

                You know, this idea that elections were stolen are just American trying to excuse the fact that they are not good people. Nobody stole this election, this is what you people voted for and wanted. Sure you may have not wanted it, but 70% of Germans didn’t want Hitler in the 30s. You as in all Americans allowed this to happen, and even worse trump WON FAIR AND SQUARE. Hitler had to play games to get ahead, here you people let trump win!

          as a German American, Germans allowed it to happen because of the shame of allowing it to happen.

          I’m not ashamed of my actions because I did all I could to stop it from happening, and anyone trying to place undue blame on me for simply being born in the wrong country is bullshit.

          And the US government is made up of who?

          criminals and traitors

          Elected by who?

          less than 37% of the American population

          For the presumed benefit of who?

          Israel? Russia? China? It’s not Americans, that’s for sure. have you seen what’s happening in the US?

              you’re not wrong there.

              20% refused to vote because they said Harris would kill Palestinians.

              another 10% voted for 3rd party for the same reason.

              the remainder tried to perform damage control and voted Harris.

              🤷 then you have musk potentially attacking electronic voting machines and allegedly changing votes.

              so yeah, it’s difficult to blame any one group when they were all manipulated by criminals and traitors.

                This other dude here just claimed Biden / Kamala was worse justified ENTIRELY by the destruction of buildings, absolutely refusing to look at the statistics showing killings accelerated rapidly when Trump took power.

                He genuinely believes Trump stopped Israel from bombing in Gaza, the same Trump who joined Netanyahu in a joint war against Iran to kill even more civilians and refuse to take action against them bombing civilians in Lebanon

                The pro-Trump fake activists are pure evil

        As an American (assume you are as well, but you might not be), I know from context that this generally means the country, not every single individual.

        And as a country, we really have put out boot down on a lot of countries’ necks.

        So it’s really really not racist to point this out.

        It’s like saying “Israel is genociding the Palestinians”. There are some Israelis who disagree with Israel’s actions. Same with anything Iranian leadership says. It’s the same for pretty much any country in the world.

          Yes, they should understand it as maga government doing this, right-wing, authoritarian, they all line up, and supported by kkk and other prejudiced group members, and insist more restrictions are needed to improve, and opposite what really makes a healthy society. These unhealthy governments are all over and can see in history, we’re not supposed to repeat.
