Okay sure, but have you considered all the freedom we have?

Check and mate Europe

u/DreamlessWindow 6h ago

You can't write that without /s, people won't get the sarcasm, regardless of how obvious it may be.

u/Thetman38 5h ago

I thought saying "check and mate" was the giveaway

3

u/GoldVader 2h ago

I was going to say it was very obvious, and then I looked at some of the replies, and now I'm sad.

u/Surfsupforthesummer 4h ago

No. Checkmate is equivalent to a ‘drop mic’ movement and nowhere near comes across as being sarcastic.

u/Chemistry-Deep 3h ago

Any English people not detecting the sarcasm need to have a good look at themselves.

u/Sea_Fox_2850 7h ago

Flock cams ? ICE killing your people? School shootings ? Man you are so damn free

u/onoz9 7h ago

Free to shoot each other to death, Europe doesn't have that!!

2

u/New_Cardiologist4533 6h ago

I mean technically anyone is free to shoot/stab each other to death.*

*Until get caught or gets killed.

u/Holiday-Fix-9244 5h ago

Funny enough, more people die per capita in Europe from lack of AC than gun deaths in America.

2

u/Handies 5h ago

and 2/3 all of gun deaths are suicides. The us is quite safe and not some wild west free for all that reddit wants to make it appear.

1

u/Ok-Scheme-913 4h ago

You may want to look up the most likely cause of death in children.

It's absolutely heinous shit.

1

u/onoz9 5h ago

Well I could pull out any kind of statistics (car deaths, obesity etc), not that it matters. AC deaths is aided by Americans btw, who are happy to keep burning fossil fuels to keep profits running for billionaires. And elderly people mostly suffer from it. School shootings is totally different, sadly.

1

u/Holiday-Fix-9244 4h ago

It’s moreso china and India, but go off I guess

1

u/Handies 5h ago

Uh what mate? Our ac deaths are Americans fault? Europe has billionaires too...

u/Sea_Fox_2850 6h ago

So people defending themselves against the destruction of their country is the same to you ? We all know Americans hate people that want to live free. We saw what you done in the middle east .

u/Humble-Reply228 5h ago

I don’t care the reason, it’s beyond argument that if want to shoot people, just go to Ukraine or Russia and they will put you where shooting happens.

1

u/Acrobatic-Layer2993 6h ago

Flock cams have nothing on cctv

1

u/YouSnuffTheBlaze 3h ago

Flock cams are a disgrace but they don’t have shit on European levels of surveillance and privacy invasions.

It's a joke, relax

u/MLG_Ethereum 6h ago

Go touch grass, my guy. How many people has ICE killed? How many people have died in school shootings? Compare that on a per capita basis.

Your world view and perception is so warped because you spend so much time on reddit. Facts don't care about your feelings.

2

u/GustenGrodkuk 6h ago edited 6h ago

The US had 57 times more school shootings than the rest of the G7 countries combined. The US has 8.68 school shootings per million people. Sweden has 0.26. Spain has 0.13. England has 0.26. Germany 0.19. Those are straight facts.

Edit: added per capita

u/bouchandre 6h ago

"ICE only killed 2 innocent civilians so it's all sunshine and roses"

ICE has the largest budget out of any departement in US history. Why? Also, a lot of people have simply gone missing after being taken away by these thugs. they likely killed many many more.

lol false.

u/Opposite_Sea_6257 4h ago

Lmao so edgy

2

u/Sea_Fox_2850 6h ago

Oh nice. They killed not that many innocent people so it's ok ... You showed perfect what's wrong with your country

u/orthrusfury 6h ago

I think you are right. People here should be more realistic.

About the school shootings tho: Europe has these too, but I think they are quite rare in whole Europe, compared to the US.

In the whole 21st century it was like 40 incidents in Europe.
Alone in 2026 the US has already over 25.

I love the US and I truly wish for it to stop. No family out there shall go through something like this.

u/EchoChamberTech 6h ago

Sarcasm lost on our European brothers lol.

u/16c7x 6h ago

LOL, you're not even allowed to drink unpasteurised milk.

u/Ok-Scheme-913 4h ago

Like getting shot in school?

u/Bikerbass 2h ago

You do realise that the US doesn’t even make it into the top 10 when it comes to Freedom right?

Im american and I cant even agree with this

u/paranood888 6h ago

Yeah famously you put more of your citizen behind bar than most countries on earth even dictatorship. Worst than Russia or Afghanistan lol. Only country that does worse is El Salvador but you re also sending ppl there lol

u/AssistanceCheap379 3h ago

I know youre probably just goofing around, but thr US is behind 33 European nations. Countries like Romania and Czechia, Poland and Croatia are higher up in terms of freedoms than the US according to Freedom House.

u/-HowAboutNo- 3h ago

No hate to Romania.

But man, falling behind Romania is a low-point for the US..

0

u/NumerousStick5395 2h ago

Because it’s a completely made up BS metric. Just about every single person in Romania would move to the US if possible

2

u/Disastrous-Data438 2h ago

Of course. Because the American dream was never supposed to be US people 😀 

0

u/NumerousStick5395 1h ago

Not sure what point you’re trying to make. US accepts more immigrants than any country in the world. Them coming to the US to build a better life is as equally a part of the American dream as is born Americans making it.

u/foo-bar-25 7h ago

Such as?

u/Repocket_Pocket 6h ago

THE FREEDOM THAT THE GUNS PROVIDE THE PEOPLE.

u/Raskzak 6h ago

but why don't they use it then?

1

u/foo-bar-25 6h ago

Which is what exactly?

u/Repocket_Pocket 5h ago

THE MOST ABSOLUTE OF THE FREEDOMS, ONE THAT THE EUROPOORS, THE SOUTH AMERIMUTTS, THE ASS-IANS AND THOSE FREAKS THAT WALK UPSIDE DOWN DON'T HAVE.

LORD SAVE THE FIRST PRESIDENT OF THE UNITED STATES HAMILTON HAMMER MAN.

u/zenrexneo 6h ago

Can’t walk across the street because it’s j walking. Dude America isn’t free, not even your healthcare. Europe can walk wherever

2

u/Andromeda_53 5h ago

I was bewildered when I learnt that fact about j-walking why is crossing the road a crime

2

u/Poobbly 3h ago

Cars are king in the US.

1

u/Surfsupforthesummer 4h ago

Ok with murder? You call shooting at schools is freedom? Getting abducted by unidentified government officials, freedom? Explain exactly what you consider freedom compared to Europe. Please.

u/SarcasticOP 3h ago

Obesity and poor decisions around one own’s health

u/Surfsupforthesummer 2h ago

Per capita? No.

1

u/N3rdr4g3 43m ago

If you exclude suicides, yes. Gun homicides in the US are 4.7-5.6 per 100,000. Death due to heat from lack of ac in europe is 11 per 100,000

u/Fmywholelife 3h ago edited 3h ago

Hells yeah, US citizens enjoy the freedom to wear swastikas and Seig Heil and the freedom fire our workers without notice and cause and a flag on the friggin moon.

Whereas alls the Europoor have got is the right to healthcare, a right to safe medication, a right to compensation, the right to repair hardware, right to paid parental leave and the right to paid annual leave, the right to be forgotten and the right to own their data.

u/Consistent_Guava8592 5h ago

You have only freedom of choice in supermarkets for shitty stuff. That’s about it .

Seriously , you have classified being against fascism as an indication of security risk . What more do you need to see? I guess a lot of. Have fun in your civil war .
