Oh my god thank fuck you censored the word fuck or something bad might have happened

Can we live in precedented times please?

Oh, there’s precedent for everything that’s happening right now…

You’re just not going to like it.

I love how Americans need a literal road blocking bump to hit with their tyres to figure out when to stop (and yet because their cars are gigantic that’s overshooting anyway).

I remember being so confused by the weird concrete stumps for ages when I lived there at first. It’s just not a thing here…

I don’t get it?

Woah now, teaching kids to read is woke socialism, ban this dangerous practice before you end up with an educated proletariat!

I just come on Lemmy once or twice a day to see what people are up to, I’m still not entirely sure what 196 means but I enjoy the dank maymays of the youth, I’m not in the loop on drama alas

dabs

He’s one of those American politics blokes right? Someone into Trump and all them lot.

The fuck is going on with that bloke in the bottom

I don’t think it’s used as a verb, a Goon would perhaps hench? Even that feels like a stretch though.

Hmm, I’m not sure what singular verb you’d use to describe a hired henchman/goon’s job…

Think of all the jobs this’ll provide for struggling Americans everywhere! This is gonna be a huge boost to the economy, and take the world into a new era of security and safety under the nation of freedom and liberty.

USA! USA! USA!

Kinda ruined by having website branding slapped in the middle of it, especially as the majority of the poster is, if we want to talk creative property and such, ripped off from an old WWII poster.

But yeah, regardless of the why, it is very poorly placed and draws the eye far too much. There’s a reason such copyright statements are in small text in a corner, not plastered in the literal middle of an image.

What an unusual place to see news about my city! What are the odds haha.

Fascist tossers can go back where they came from that’s for sure 👍

could we ask the UK and rest of Commonwealth to help us out if things get too bad?

The UK need not have entered the last conflict against aggressive fascists when and how she did, but did so as much out of a sense of obligation to one’s friends and the moral right as anything. When conflict loomed, the UK made a defensive pact with Poland, when she could have easily just sat back and watched.

The same is true of Canada. We are no longer an empire, no longer a large and powerful nation, but if and when the US eventually takes direct aggressive military action, the UK, backed by the Allies of the new Millennium in Europe and beyond, will come to Canada’s aid.

To do any less would be to side with the fascists.

Thinking of the USA’s current lying, deceitful leader, and their increasingly aggressive moves, I’m once again reminded of Chamberlain’s address to the nation…

We have a clear conscience. We have done all that any country could do to establish peace, but a situation in which no word given by Germany’s ruler could be trusted and no people or country could feel themselves safe had become intolerable. And now that we have resolved to finish it, I know that you will all play your part with calmness and courage.

As such a moment as this the assurances of support that we have received from the Empire are a source of profound encouragement to us.

…Now may God bless you all and may He defend the right. For it is evil things that we shall be fighting against, brute force, bad faith, injustice, oppression and persecution. And against them I am certain that the right will prevail.

And if you’ll forgive me a little more quoting of particularly famous speeches, this line about the new world comes to mind also…

we shall never surrender, and even if, which I do not for a moment believe, this Island or a large part of it were subjugated and starving, then our Empire beyond the seas, armed and guarded by the British Fleet, would carry on the struggle, until, in God’s good time, the New World, with all its power and might, steps forth to the rescue and the liberation of the old.

Even if one of us falls, the others will step forth to their rescue and liberation. Freedom from fascism is a universal right, and we will enforce it until we no longer can ♥️

You don’t live in a very dangerous area, then.

I keep an eye on everyone, even a woman with a kid in a pram (assuming the pram isn’t just an empty decoy) could try to mug you, people get desperate and chavs get violent. Always keep your head on a swivel, don’t trust anyone at face value just because of their gender or what they look like.

Classrooms? I thought this was up in an office, damn they’re really trying to brainwash kids to hate themselves early wherever that is eh :-(

Our schools aren’t perfect, but I never saw anything remotely like that here, any messaging was always very positive and supportive and stuff.
