Welcome to the Unpopular Opinion community!

How voting works:

Vote the opposite of the norm.

If you agree that the opinion is unpopular give it an arrow up. If it's something that's widely accepted, give it an arrow down.

Guidelines:

Tag your post, if possible (not required)

If your post is a "General" unpopular opinion, start the subject with [GENERAL].
If it is a Lemmy-specific unpopular opinion, start it with [LEMMY].

Rules:

1. NO POLITICS

Politics is everywhere. Let's make this about [general] and [lemmy] - specific topics, and keep politics out of it.

2. Be civil.

Disagreements happen, but that doesn’t provide the right to personally attack others. No racism/sexism/bigotry. Please also refrain from gatekeeping others' opinions.

3. No bots, spam or self-promotion.

Only approved bots, which follow the guidelines for bots set by the instance, are allowed.

4. Shitposts and memes are allowed but...

Only until they prove to be a problem. They can and will be removed at moderator discretion.

5. No trolling.

This shouldn't need an explanation. If your post or comment is made just to get a rise with no real value, it will be removed. You do this too often, you will get a vacation to touch grass, away from this community for 1 or more days. Repeat offenses will result in a perma-ban.

Instance-wide rules always apply. https://legal.lemmy.world/tos/

USA is cursed! (lemmy.world)

Just read this news (only title tho) where a teenager murdered his sister over Christmas gifts.

I'm starting to think, as a land, USA is cursed. Every hour American military complex exports death all around the world. And these bullets and bombs are used by the literal evil mfers against weak victims.

The continuous death of innocent American children by psychos who have easy access to guns is an ironic and twisted equilibrium of fate against due to the greed of darker-than-charcoal-stone-heart Americans.

Nicholas Cage's "Lord of war" sums it up.

And my sincere condolences to victims' heartbroken families.

That's nice.

Now do your research into weapons manufacturing and learn about all the countries that are involved in this particular industry. You will soon find it's a global racket and isn't just isolated to one nation.

As an example, I use many brands of components that are produced by Nammo or other European companies in my own reloading room. (Berger, Vihtavuori, etc..) It just so happens I live in the US. Hell, even the "American" smokeless powders I use originate in Australia.

That is just the tip of the iceberg, friend.

Edit: Huh. Even CCI got sold of to a foreign company. CCI and Winchester make #41 primers mostly used in NATO 5.56 ammunition, btw. https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Vista_Outdoor#:~:text=Vista%20Outdoor%20Inc.,-Type&text=Vista%20Outdoor%20is%20the%20parent,%241.91%20billion%2C%20pending%20regulatory%20approval.
