Wild! And might actually be effective, unlike the weirdos putting a "license" on their comments.

The license works. Just ask your grandparents who posted those disclaimers on Facebook 15 years ago.

Imagine US turning into a dictatorship.

Imagine US being on the Axis side of the WW3.

[–] Miaou@jlai.lu 24 points 5 months ago (1 children)

The US chose the winning side in both wars, was extremely permeable to fascism after the second war, and use the Red Scare to purge political dissensions.

The US not helping Germany is mostly due to financial interests (for the politicians) and Pearl Harbour (for the masses).

My point is, let's not pretend that the US being on the wrong side if history in WW3 is a surprising idea.

But Biden is no FDR. Dude isn't going to save us from a dozen George Wallace types crawling through the country's interior.
