America has lost its f*****g mind. (feddit.de)

Hey, German here. What the f*** are Americans doing at the other side of the Atlantic? Some of you already know this monstrosity. I did'nt. This is a Ford F650 Truck and when I stepped out of my Youtube Bubble I realized, it was marketed as the "biggest, baddest Truck on the road" for the everyday American. Are you guys...

PugJesus ,

The best part (/s) is when they purposefully drive in front of people with a 'wimpy' car, like a hybrid or EV or a car that isn't fuckhuge, and intentionally spews smog behind them.

Very mature folk, very stable, very safe to be around, as I'm sure you can tell.

PugJesus OP ,

Millions of Nazis were permanently cured of fascism through the noble efforts of the Allies. :)

PugJesus OP ,

The UK was nowhere close to being ready for war, but in truth, neither was Germany. Chamberlain made his decision with noble intentions, but in retrospect, even just strategically, it was still the wrong decision.

PugJesus OP ,

Better to see WW2 as a war against fascist expansionism. But yes, Spain and Portugal were left to their own devices, and because of that, millions suffered under the rule of Franco and Salazar.

PugJesus OP ,

There's a much better measurement for how many were cured of Fascism

PugJesus OP ,

Fascists don't believe in might makes right. If they did, they'd all be liberals and communists, according to the end of WW2. What fascists believe is that their 'enemy' can be crushed because the enemy is too weak and effete to fight back. The proper way to dispel such a notion is to crush them and look fabulous doing it

PugJesus OP ,

Sounds like the kind of thing non-Nazi Germans would've said in 1930

PugJesus OP ,

Generally, what it used to be is that people got more liberal as they got older, but society became more liberal faster.

Nowadays, millennials are getting older and mostly keeping up with liberal trends because we have so little invested in the status quo to slow us down from changing with the times. Amongst other factors.

PugJesus ,

Conservatives: "The free market is superior! Deal with it!"

Conservatives when the free market decides against them: "THIS IS LITERALLY SOCIALISM"

PugJesus OP ,

That leaves only the question of if the third one is lying, or telling the truth!
