Yes. The openly anti-America stances from the left on this site are so out there that they often bend back into being pro-autocracy. Guy who calls America imperialist but is like “all solidarity to the CCP and Iran 👊 “
something the left needs to sincerely grapple with is that the vast majority of workers in this country identify as american before anything else. i personally think it’s in our best interest to channel a positive vision for this country

The United States is so large and wealthy that it basically has a puncher’s chance in any soccer match despite its patchy history with the sport. Along with Japan, it’s the major underachiever in international soccer history

I guess it’s only fair that the USA and England are 1-2 here since they’re also the two oldest countries in the world

Patriotic Filipinos just stormed the Chinese Embassy in Makati on the occasion of Philippine Independence Day. Protesters burned China’s ridiculous 10-dash line map and exposed China's harassment of their fishermen. Filipinos are fed up with Chinese aggression!

Number one weakness of elected Democrats from Obama through Biden is that they don’t actually want the power they’re begging you to give them.
Gavin Newsom considering the destruction of the historic East Wing for an aspiring fascist's vanity project, and his first thought is 'Gee, I hope I'm not put in a position where I have to take a stand'. An appalling amount of weakness and fear from him x.com/nick_field90/status/20…

You can see the straining here of Vuong not being able to dismiss Austen as a “straight white male” lol
“I have tried reading this book maybe seven times so far, and each time I make it only 40 or so pages before I have this urge to do … anything but live inside upper middle-class concerns about who marries who among the 18th-century English gentry.” —“Shelf Life: Ocean Vuong”

One of the most disappointing facts I know from first-hand experience is that Spike Lee is quite rude to customer service workers.

We’ve been spared so much Discourse™️ by the fact that 🇨🇳 and 🇮🇱 are terrible at soccer
China did not qualify for the 2026 World Cup, but its presence is everywhere from referee Ma Ning to Lenovo servers, Hisense VAR systems, merchandise factories, and broadcast rights. chinaglobalsouth.com/2026/06…

A very enlightening moment for me about eurosnobbery was the revelation that “soccer” was a common term for the sport _even in the UK_ into the 1970s, when they got negatively polarized against it because of the NASL launch in the U.S.

There's a lot of eurosnob stuff that is completely embarrassing and stupid wrt soccer but I do believe Americans should not be calling soccer broadcasts at this stage. We are not there yet

The Super Bowl had higher tv ratings in the UK than the Sunday match of the week in the early 80s. The tradition of “football” had to be invented

Anyway “football” = association football, rugby, Gaelic football, or whatever else depending on context. Meanwhile “soccer” means “association football”

“Porn is bad” is an incredibly rigorous argument that regrettably a lot of people have become negatively polarized against

Porn has rotted your brain so much you call women 'vanilla' for not wanting to be hit in the bedroom. Porn has rotted your brain so much you think a normal looking v4gina is 'disgusting'. Porn has rotted your brain so much you think all boobs are supposed to be symmetrical and perky. POrn has rotted your brain so much you think all nipples have to be "the size of a penny. Porn has rotted your brain so much you think a flat stomach is the standard. Porn has rotted your brain so much you think calling women derogatory names in the bedroom is sexy. Porn has rotted your brain so much you think s3x has to be crazy and rough to be enjoyable.

A good example of how financial repression and piggybacking on the U.S. led world order can only take you so far. Luckily, this isn’t relevant to any other countries today…

Modern China presents itself as an autochthonous Han ethnostate with a single harmonious language and boundaries that stretch back millennia. That’s not really true. But it’s an important bit of propaganda for acting like various territories belong to it.

I bring this up because the USA has administered Cuba more recently (1902) than the PRC has Taiwan (never) and has the second largest number of speakers of Cuba’s language, yet we can clearly see annexation would be chauvinistic and wrong. Ask why you can’t see it for Taiwan too.
Replying to @Katterton_
There isn’t an American leftist alive who’d be enthusiastic about the USA annexing Cuba. Yet some will act ambivalent about Taiwan despite it being a similar situation.

“Cuba and Florida were both part of the Spanish Empire. There are lot of Spanish-speaking Cubans in both areas today. Hence, they need to be part of the same country.” This is similar logic to how the PRC justifies annexation through “Taiwan has always been a part of China”
