  • Lemmy loves to trash talk America simply because it’s America. Every online platform has always had a poor perception of America (reddit, Digg, SomethingAwful, 4chan, etc), but Lemmy takes the cake. If this guy was from a different country, there wouldn’t be as much hatred in the comments for him. I’m just stating facts. Even if Harris got elected instead, it wouldn’t change the anti-America perception on this platform and there would still be people raging against him.


  • Glad we both agree that Lemmy loves to shit on Americans. Your need to elaborate exemplifies this statement, cause you can’t help but waste an opportunity to take the trash talk even further. I didn’t trash talk, but stated an honest fact about the perception of Americans on Lemmy, and look at all the downvotes I’m getting. I didn’t even defend it, just stating why Lemmy is so contradictory to the norm seen here while hating on the guy in the article. The sentiment here is either “hate America or gtfo”.

    Lemmy caring about a shrine/monument that was built to commemorate a nation’s leader? What happened to all the anti-nationalism that’s seen heavily everywhere else on this platform?

    To extend an olive branch - The US does deserve a lot of hate after this last election. I’m still dumbfounded that Kamalamaha didn’t win. We’ve been avoiding everything politics related lately because of how upset it’s made us.

    “Let them eat Corn Flakes” appears to be Kellogg’s CEO Gary Pilnick’s advice to cash-strapped shoppers who are spending the highest portion of their income on food than at any point in the last 30 years.

    In an interview with CNBC last week, WK Kellogg CEO Pilnick said the company was advertising cereal for dinner to consumers looking for more affordable options. “Give chicken the night off,” the ad’s cheery tagline reads.

    “The cereal category has always been quite affordable, and it tends to be a great destination when consumers are under pressure,” Pilnick said. “If you think about the cost of cereal for a family versus what they might otherwise do, that’s going to be much more affordable.”

    That same guy, further known as “Asshat”, made more than $4M in 2023. What a fuckin asshole.

    I wonder what his advice would be on other topics.
    “Man, I wish I could buy a house so that I have a stable living condition I don’t have to worry about and a roof over my head.”
    Asshat: “A cardboard box on the street seems to be trendy way to be thrifty and obtain all you’re asking for! I sell them, give me money!”

    Next time he complains about something, we should give him similar advice.
    Asshat: “Man, I wish I could own a yacht like the other rich guys in my golf club.”
    Us: “This rowboat seems to be trendy way to be thrifty and obtain all you’re asking for! I sell them, give me money!”
