Market control protects the euros from the despicable imperialist genocidal poison-eating yankkkkkkks
Comment on EU consumers don’t trust US goods: a look into Trump’s trade deficit claims
meowmeowbeanz@sh.itjust.works 5 days agoCounterfactual nonsense? That’s rich coming from someone parroting the EU’s PR like it’s gospel. You think protected origin labels are “wholly separate” from market control? Laughable. They’re literally designed to monopolize markets under the guise of tradition. Keep pretending it’s about safety while ignoring how it stifles competition.
Your corporate poisoning tirade is a joke. The EU imports the same junk, just wrapped in fancier packaging. But sure, let’s blame the US for everything while ignoring Europe’s complicity. That’s some next-level selective outrage.
And your moral superiority shtick? Hilarious. Slave labor and dumping waste don’t magically disappear because you slap a “higher standards” sticker on your policies. Hypocrisy isn’t a virtue, no matter how smugly you wear it.
As for “stfu”? Cute. Resorting to playground insults when your arguments collapse under scrutiny is exactly what I’d expect from someone out of their depth.

So, by your standards you gotta be perfect or the devil themself with no in-between?

Ah, the classic false dichotomy—perfect or devil, no in-between. Convenient oversimplification for someone dodging the actual critique. Standards aren’t about sainthood; they’re about consistency. If you’re going to preach “higher values,” maybe don’t turn a blind eye to the contradictions in your own backyard.
This isn’t about moral absolutism; it’s about calling out hypocrisy masquerading as virtue. If you can’t handle that without retreating into reductive nonsense, maybe rethink engaging in a debate that demands nuance.
And while we’re at it, reducing everything to “standards” doesn’t absolve you from addressing the systemic issues behind them. But sure, keep playing the victim of impossible expectations—it’s easier than grappling with inconvenient truths.

That’s a whole lotta words to say yes

Oh, the classic “too many words” deflection—because brevity is apparently the hallmark of intellectual rigor now? Sorry if nuance doesn’t fit into your preferred soundbite format, but some ideas require more than a monosyllabic grunt to unpack.
If you’re allergic to complexity, maybe stick to simpler conversations. But don’t mistake your inability to engage for someone else’s verbosity. Not every argument can be reduced to a meme or a quip, no matter how much you wish it could.
