    Victim of American empire:

    Dont blame me, im one of the victims of your fascist empire

    (Presumably) American:

    We live in an interconnected world. The fascist empire exists in part because the world allows it to.

    Are you kidding?

      Everyone wants to play the victim. No one wants to do the hard work to protect the victims. Human nature.

      But whining about it online doesn’t change shit. I guarantee you the real victims aren’t here on Lemmy.

        Are you kidding me? What do you know about Salamence’s life, situation, or actions? What gives you the right to lecture like this?

          The fact that they’re lecturing us from the same position lol. That’s what made me want to comment in the first place.

          But it’s fine, I was trying to get past that with my edit calling for everyone to work together. But I guess as usual leftists working together proves impossible. Big part of why the world is so shit.

            the same position

            Salamence:

            Dont blame me, im one of the victims of your fascist empire

            Clearly not the same position. You assumed the person posting was in the same position, which was incorrect.

            But it’s fine, I was trying to get past that with my edit calling for everyone to work together. But I guess as usual leftists working together proves impossible. Big part of why the world is so shit.

            Solidarity is good. But people in the imperial core can’t expect solidarity if they don’t give it.

            calling for everyone to work together

            Really? From this reply you made clear what you want is to share the blame
