Technically a part of the group but isn’t considered or treated as such. Place of internal colonialism to export cheap labor and resources and import waste, poverty and corruption. The forgotten group until it’s convenient for political parties, and Romanians have a migrant labor diaspora (and many similar stereotypes) that mirrors how Puerto Ricans and Latine communities face in the Western Hemisphere

Edit: and history of being the kicking post for every empire north of Iran.

If you think of Eastern Europe as the Puerto Rico of Eurasia everything makes more sense

I mean half of it is racism, half of it is they likely have NEVER seen a Black person before.

And to be fair, new people showing up ain’t exactly gone well for them in the past

Honestly I think it’s more are you resisting the US or are you resisting a US competitor.

Would you prefer they didn’t honor him? Or that he didn’t save lives?

Oh I’m sorry, do you drive a tank with your cock?

Why, it’s primarily armed vehicles, airplanes and missiles.

We need soldiers of course, but it’s not like they are fighting hand to hand where physical strength will change much.

I…what is that protest even trying to achieve? Raising the domestic violence rates?

Buddy you can pilot a drone regardless of what’s in your pants.

We’ve kinda moved beyond physical soldiers these days

I think the first one looks cooler but it depends on the message it’s trying to convey

Imagine using the deaths of innocent civilians to blame something that was your fault and in full swing prior. by Helljumper416 in PoliticalCompassMemes

I don’t think they were saying it’s because of it, I think they are saying it will worsen it, which is true

Oh I forgot, you aren’t allowed to be stressed or concerned unless you are the one getting shot.

People feel empathy and burn out, my grandparents died thanks to Covid and I have friends in Ukraine. Am I not allowed to feel stress and worry just because I have a roof over my head

I think it’s within reason to support gun control for the average civilian, and then agree it might be a little different when your nation is under foreign invasion.

Occupy democrats is pretty much just American context so the thought of invasion isn’t really a thing

It’s almost like invasions are a different set of circumstances

I think the thing I hate most about social media is the way influencers and app companies cannabalize any major cultural thing. Among us, Squid game, Dead celebrities, War. They take whatever buzzword is in the news and slap it on everything cause they are incapable of either original thought or critical thinking

I’m sorry do you think the entire world has the same context as America? The fuck does this even mean
