Tbh, my comment got removed from worldnews.ml just for saying it makes you look extremly bad to be celebrating the deaths of US soldiers in yet another senseless war. I believe the average .ml user to be 15 years old.
Some people forget which instance/community they’re in. Others intentionally abuse the reporting system in the hopes of censoring certain viewpoints. It never works, at least not here, because we know better than to assume every report is made in good faith.
US soldiers are not “uwu smol beans” just trying to get free healthcare.
They don’t deserve praise or sympathy for doing their job, which is to further the goals of US imperialists. They deserve accountability and scorn for every drone strike. Every blown up family. Every fucking village they’ve reduced to ash. They are not precious victims. They are the boot on the neck of the world. They are the monsters the children of the global south wake up to at night in terror.
Unlike you and most people trying to convince me every US soldier is a stormtrooper for the empire, I have family in the region and know people directly affected by this war.
I never said that US soldiers are innocent, I just don’t celebrate them dying because I think human life is valuable. Edgeposting online feels very cool but doesn’t do anything to end this conflict.
If you were so against US imperialism you would do things like protest at home and tell you representatives you’re against it. Demonizing soldiers online is just childish and immature.
More US soldiers dying will also not let the conflict end sooner which would be the best outcome. Those dozens who have died so far will be replaced by others.
Doesn’t seem to me like this is an extremly pro-US position.

This does not work lol
What, after 3 of these NoKings “”“protests”“” that there was no change whatsoever? The frog costumes doesn’t convince anyone. 3 paragraph signs doesn’t convince anyone.
The Viet Minh should have simply written strongly worded letters to US senators to convince them to stop incinerating their villages. But alas they chose violence instead, which makes them just as bad as the US death-and-rape squads. I am a serious anti-imperialist and these are my very cool thoughts
They don’t know they’re the fucking boot. I won’t give them praise but I will give them sympathy. They don’t know what they signed up for. They’re kids born into an echo chamber of American propaganda. They don’t know what they’re doing. Nobody at that age does. Don’t celebrate their deaths, they’re victims too.
That quite literally doesn’t matter. Being fucking stupid or ignorant or whatever you want to call it is no excuse to be the bloodthirsty murderers of the world.
Why are you here defending Jack booted thugs from slight criticism?
it makes you look extremly bad to be celebrating the deaths of Nazi soldiers
You’re simply wrong. Celebrating the deaths of those who voluntarily signed up to be fascist stormtroopers raping, pillaging and war criming their way across the periphery is entirely reasonable. Especially for those of us outside the white supremacist western empire who the stormtroopers are intended to be sicked on.
You’re making everyone here look like a callous asshole. Your mistake is assuming those who sign up have a good understanding of what they’re signing up for. They don’t know. Their sin is ignorance. I will never celebrate the death of someone in their early 20s or younger who doesn’t know any better and you shouldn’t either.
I am not sorry for having no sympathy for imperialist stormtroopers. In the internet age ignorance is not an excuse. Should rapists and murdered in their early 20s be let off with warnings? Obviously not. Please take your clean wheremacht nonsense elsewhere.
You have no idea what you’re talking about. You sound like a Christian damning the ignorant to hell because they never heard about Jesus and never thought to look. They don’t know. No 18 year old from middle America is going to find information on US imperialism unless they look for it, and there is nothing in their lives suggesting they look for it.
Yeah again not going to feel sorry for murderous rapist stormtroopers just because they’re little mid 20s children who don’t know right from wrong. Please stop with your clean wheremacht nonsense. You condemn the Nuremberg trials as well I suppose the Nazis didn’t know any better they were just following orders and surrounded by propaganda right?
No 18 year old from America should be raping pillaging and murdering their way across the middle east. Don’t you think that’s worse than condemning them?
those of us outside the white supremacist western empire
i suspect that we both can agree that the non-white racial makeup of the ice agents and republicans give the illusion that it’s not a “white” supremacist empire.
i agree with the sentiment shared in your comment and my only quibble is that using “white” – although accurate – detracts from the messaging and i wonder there’s a another term that can be used for the overwhelming majority of westerners that rely on superficial/popular understanding that the word “white” carries with it.

True however illusions do not change the fact that white supremacy is the bedrock upon which the western liberal hegemonic order is built. All it does is add to the imperative of pointing it out consistently so that said illusion cannot be used as the ideological veil it is intended to be.

I think it’s best to avoid ceding ground in the realm of thought to the reactionaries, instead focusing on forcing them to see reality as it is. That white is the designated ingroup of the current hegemonic empire.

i agree with this and i asked my question because the last half century in the west has made it abundantly clear that proselytizing this understanding is woefully inadequate against monied interests, yet most marxists agree that the public must be engaged in this manner nonetheless.
the shift we’ve been seeing in the most recent generations is entirely due to social media live streaming a genocide into peoples homes and now that, that same monied interest has (or are about to) effectively gate keep and capture social media; i fear that this shift will reverse back to the previous dynamic.

As I understand it the issues in this regard in the west is not that the message or wording is wrong necessarily but simply that it is not accompanied with any action of note (for many reasons) which leaves Marxists mainly as preachers as opposed to leaders and teachers.

Certainly possible but putting this particular genie back in it’s bottle might not be as easy as they wish especially given they are losing ground not only in the ideological front as the decay becomes impossible to ignore but also in material reality where again the decay of the empire and it’s knock on effects become harder and harder to swallow for the average denizen of the imperial core.
All that’s left to see is will the Marxists of the imperial core seize the moment or be swept aside by the rise of the fascists.
the 60% of americans who still don’t believe that the palestinians are being genocided despite that live streaming into their homes suggest that the genie never got the chance to leave the bottle and those same last few decades of the police, cia, fbi, etc. literally bombing, smearing, imprisoning, and executing leftists; along with our institutions providing legal cover for them to do so; also suggest that the imperialists have a winning formula that ensures that any sort of leftist movements die in their cradles.
add to that ice’s presence and european islamophobia taking root into their respective mainstreams also suggest that blame for the material decline will be overwhelmingly placed on the same classic scapegoats. so it seems less like a question of whether or not western marxists can sieze the moment and more like are there enough of them (and are they correctly experienced) to ever doing anything meaningful going forward.

Unfortunately for you, your mod log is public.
I’m almost four times older than that, and I think you’re wildly mistaken.
Why would celebrating the deaths of war criminals make you look bad?
Death to America and its terrorist war criminal soldiers.
Reporter: [REDACTED]
Reason: Breaks Community Rules
There is no such rule, reporter. مرگ بر آمریکا
It got reported lmao? How fucking sensitive do you have to be? I woulda thought Americans would be the ultimate free speech warriors!
I should be free to call for the death of their terrorist country on every local news station!
Some people forget which instance/community they’re in. Others intentionally abuse the reporting system in the hopes of censoring certain viewpoints. It never works, at least not here, because we know better than to assume every report is made in good faith.
Wild
We don’t support the empire here.
Why would anyone want to look good to Americans? What has that ever done for you? Are you some kind of goddamned pomeranian?

Viet Minh did but forgot their frog costumes so they weren’t able to convince the US.
No, obviously it’s not enough, but still better than being an edgelord online.
In what way is doing frog costume bullshit better than dismantling the harmful mythology of our monstrous death machine
They don’t know they’re the fucking boot. I won’t give them praise but I will give them sympathy. They don’t know what they signed up for. They’re kids born into an echo chamber of American propaganda. They don’t know what they’re doing. Nobody at that age does. Don’t celebrate their deaths, they’re victims too.
That quite literally doesn’t matter. Being fucking stupid or ignorant or whatever you want to call it is no excuse to be the bloodthirsty murderers of the world.
Why are you here defending Jack booted thugs from slight criticism?
I am not defending thugs, I’m defending misled kids
Wrong. Those thugs are murdering millions of innocent civilians around the world for 80 years.
You’re simply wrong. Celebrating the deaths of those who voluntarily signed up to be fascist stormtroopers raping, pillaging and war criming their way across the periphery is entirely reasonable.

Check your privilege bud
What is this comment? Explain it.
No 18 year old from America should be raping pillaging and murdering their way across the middle east. Don’t you think that’s worse than condemning them?
Yeah, you’re right. No 18 year old from America should be raping pillaging and murdering their way across the middle east.
What? If some American kid is raping pillaging and murdering anywhere they should be punished for those crimes.
…? Yeah, but they aren’t, lol. They’re lauded as hero’s. Us calling them scum is the default reaction, and should be more widespread.
So they’re too stupid to blame their own actions on? That’s your defence?
Ignorant doesn’t mean stupid, it means they don’t know something.
Just following orders, didn’t work in 1945 and it doesn’t work now, no matter how stupid or ignorant the removed doing the murdering are.
They have a duty to refuse illegal orders, I am not supporting war crimes
And they don’t, hence why they’re disgusting pieces of shit that should be tried for war crimes.

The removal didn’t have an effect sadly you are incapable of learning.
Unlimited death to US soldiers fighting on the wrong side.
Won’t someone please think of the Nazi rapists 😔
Would you say the same thing about celebrating the deaths of Wehrmacht soldiers in World War 2? Why or why not?
