Oh yeah, the old "the only people in the US pointing out that it's an empire that kills millions of people are privileged" line.

My point is largely that the hallmark of an internet troll is that they don't ever engage on any other topics and then change the subject early and often. We are talking about whether it's productive to come into every thread about US politics and be smug that Donald Trump won, and whether this serves any productive political endgame besides some kind of juvenile accelerationism.

I'm not sure what empire has to do with it or how you think Donald Trump is going to change that.

Now I'm confused. Who is your original message about?

Well of course! You're privileged to be American! Now pick up that rifle, American Exceptionalism needs to be enforced by violent colonization under the guise of nation building. That IPhone was made in China after all.
