@tamar13988@glenn_tunes I know what a constitutional republic is. Do you know what a constitutional monarchy is? Our King can’t “pound us on the head”. He doesn’t govern us. Your President holds vastly more actual political power than our King.
@tamar13988@glenn_tunes Norway is a constitutional monarchy, but our King doesn’t govern and power isn’t concentrated in one person. If “one man ruling” is your concern, you don’t even have to look beyond your own borders.
@joe03454186@EdKrassen Ah yes, the obligatory WWII card. Right on cue after the US gets knocked out. The dance? I’d bet my savings it happened because your president decided to meddle.
@johnennis Europeans do install A/C. We just don’t build our entire infrastructure around it because most of Europe hasn’t historically needed it. Where I live, it’s used for heating more than cooling. The American obsession with European air conditioning is getting weird at this point.
@TheLastHopeUSA@GuntherEagleman Sending troops to Afghanistan and Iraq for nearly two decades doesn’t exactly fit the definition of «freeloading».
But sure, keep believing the propaganda.
@jonjustice55@Microinteracti1 Funny how the loudest voices always have the same profile picture.
NATO’s last troops left your war in Afghanistan less than five years ago.
And instead of an actual argument, you go straight to ‘euro trash.’ Real class act, Jon.
@SunshineS58469@lord__mike@BasedMikeLee NATO forces supported the US in Afghanistan for 20 years. The final withdrawal was in 2021. Calling that ‘weak support’ is incredibly disrespectful to the veterans and those who lost their lives.
@NiquaOuta@TryConnecta@JimFergusonUK I’m curious - how does NATO funding affect you, given you’re not in a NATO country?
Right… you’ve muted me. Well, have a good one.
@NiquaOuta@TryConnecta@JimFergusonUK No, the world hasn’t been ‘against America for decades,’ and the US hasn’t been handing out ‘free goodies.’ That’s propaganda.
What’s changing now is that allies are starting to distance themselves from increasingly unpredictable leadership.
