Why would I love my country? The only thing it has provided me is money and relative comfort at the expense of millions and millions of deaths and millions and millions of people who are likely permanently traumatized and homeless. And please don’t say “you have the freedom to talk shit.” In Russia you get black bagged to Siberia for protesting against war. In the US the government will make you think your little dance and song protests will usher in communism to make you feel powerful and think you’re changing the world, then nothing changes and you get bored. It’s jester’s privilege.

Just put your head down, make a bunch of money, waste food, consume product, support the next war, and don’t ask questions.

Ok vlad, you seem like the diaspora joe archetype. Its an archetype of people from non-north american (can be expanded to non-western) countries that get indoctrinated by treat ideology and now worship their states. You were probably raised by ex-soviet stem types?

You're the type who'd rather spend the rest of life in his rocking chair, shaking a finger and warning the youths about the dangers of change bc you once had a negative brush with it. Kindly sit down.

You're the kind that does shit without thinking, just because you want to do "something".
