        Is Russia still considered a superpower? Lately it feels like more of China's sockpuppet.

        Well, they supposedly still have enough functional nukes to cause another mass extinction, so I wouldn't bank on a bluff, but you're not wrong either.

            Same bro, same! I have blocked 10+ communities and keywords through Voyager app.
            I do enjoy my home page, but I do like to scroll through /all, and that's where I scroll going through USA news.

            Edit: USA users are also aggressive when you complain, like you are wrong, not letting other people know what's going on.

            It's another effect of the last few generations being raised on authoritarian teat. They're always right, and all dissenting opinions aren't just wrong, they're personal attacks.

            I saw this shit in adults when I was growing up, in the US in the 90s. People here are straight-up brainwashed. I became a skeptic by age 12, and boy oh boy, did my teachers have a problem with it. I'd debunk myths and "old wives tales," especially when teachers spread them. I'd research and bring in evidence to support my points. Sounds like a great teaching opportunity, right? Not when the teachers lean authoritarian.

            Even the best science teacher in my middle school couldn't admit to the class that he lied about swallowed gum staying in your stomach for seven years. He told me I was right in private, after I brought in two books and a magazine explaining that it was a myth. But the other kids? They didn't believe me, because teacher said it's true, so it must be true. As to the teacher, I guess it's just easier to control kids with a lie than to have a little humility, stand up for truth and science, and accept whatever happens after. It spoke volumes to me about where the adults around me stood. I already knew the kids were swallowing the propaganda, but seeing the adults have so little backbone angered me.

            So yeah, we're pretty fucked as a culture. Needless to say, I stopped being surprised by the acceptance of fascism long ago. Too many people here like the idea of just being told things by someone speaking with confidence. To question that is to be a shit-stirrer and there will be consequences for it. This also explains why we accept terrible bosses and working conditions - it's all part of the same big picture.

              Absolutely they are, but they're in fall.

              Also, I find lemmy wild. One person here said china is doing the wests (which includes europe) bidding, you now said russia is chinas puppet. Since Russia is fighting europe, which is "the west", are the europeans fighting themselves? There can be a capitalist argument made here, but otherwise there is severe misinformation here, possibly just based on the lack of nuance. We should fix that collectively.

                Yeah. As a Canadian, I can't say that I'm not fucking sick of it. This America-centric bullshit has gone on for far too fucking long, and if there is one thing that I will thank Donald Trump for, it is finally giving me a socially acceptable justification for hating that entire fucking shit stain of a country.

                Don't worry, we hate this country too πŸ™‚

                Though, we are part of the world last I checked, so while I understand an eye roll level of annoyance at US news being posted in a world news community, some of y'all need therapy with how angry you're getting. It's weird.

                  Do you even know what spamming is or are you just mad and blaming other people for your lack of ability to curate your experience

                    It's a bunch of people filling up a community with something irrelevant. Explain how it isn't.

                      I'm blaming Americans for their lack of ability to understand they're not the centre of the world. Why does it bother you so much?

                      Here I'll give you an example: The exact same comment you made was made a couple of hours before, yet you still felt the need to post it because you think you're very important.

                        No I don't believe that North Korea has the potential to be a threat to the United States. I've seen North Korea help Russia threaten Ukraine. How's that going for them. Europe is currently pissing themselves wondering what they can do against Russia without America's help, that's been kinda funny to watch.

                        We took the Soviet Union seriously. There's a difference: The Soviet Union had Ukraine in it. Turns out they were the brains of the operation.

                        As for China...I think I'm gonna live long enough to see that fight.

                        Ukraine's army is holding back Russia on it's own and you believe that europe is scared?
                        You are absolutely delusional.
