Huge chunks of our problems are Rupert Murdoch (Australia), Leon Musk (South Africa), Peter Thiel (Germany), Congress (Israel), and the POTUS (Russia). Maybe the rest of the world can not bother with America’s problems, but deal with the ones you’ve sent us?
Literally everyone you just named is an American citizen
None were born here.
Ok?
ignoring the decades of previous history of home made American imperialism.
Iraq, Afghanistan, Vietnam,…
What?
your quick to blame current problems on foreigners, while ignoring that those people came to the us BECAUSE of its existing imperialistic politics.
They’re at best a symptom of a larger problem.
No, I’m cranky from people upthread putting all of the responsibility on us, when their countries ain’t so sweet and innocent. There’s a line a kilometer wide in fluorescent yellow between the 9/11 attacks back to U.S. imperialism, for instance, but Britain, Netherlands, Germany, and Russia all had their own brands of imperialism which are far more responsible for raising up those men to wealth. This is more a problem of class than nationality.
The current regime COLLABORATED with the Kremlin to get in power. As is a lot of other fascist movements in the world. I think we can safely blame a foreigner.
bush era regulations aren’t foreigners…
here’s the thing with Putin, he didn’t invent the flames, he just stoked them. The tea party was always this.
The one big problem is the lack of desire not to vote.
Those rich foreigners go there for a reason.
And the desire not to vote is a human problem, far from uniquely American. Denial and dissociation are how people get through lots of life, if my own experience as well as conversations with Russian and Chinese friends are any indicator. And the reason that the wealthy foreigners come here is that the U.S. has been the current center of economic power. They would have gone to London in the 19th century.
And, for the record, I don’t actually expect that non-wealthy South Africans can do anything about Musk, but then, neither can non-wealthy Americans.
Maybe in your mind, but it’s the reason the US is where it’s at.
It isn’t the 19th century. The reason Murdoch went to the US is a fertile ground to milk for that wealth.
Yes, non wealthy Americans could have done something about Musk…voted, because he himself admitted had Harris won, he’d be in jail.
