There are tons of things to critisize about plenty of places. I totally get the desire to do so. I’m not talking about any flavor of it in particular. Like idc what your politics are it still applies. I just find it so pointless. Other than cases like Israel where they’re like publically slaughtering thousands of innocents and the entire world is in agreement over it being a problem. (And the US is also pretty responsible for that anyway).
Like the US is a mess. It’s by far the most destructive force on Earth. It bombs, pollutes, economically sanctions, etc to other countries. It treats its own people like shit too. No healthcare, Student debt, etc.
So if you’re in the US why would you ever waste your limited time critisizing like for example, Chinese internet censorship, or Mexico having a crime problem, or any of this other bullshit? When there are so many more pressing issues to be worried about right in your own backyard? We all have limited energy and time. 100% of that should be going towards the things that need fixed in the US itself. Everything else is just a distraction.
Edited to add this image before I stop interacting with this post because I think it was the best comment on the post. To anyone mad at my post ask ChatGPT what “White Man’s Burden” means. :)
Meeting and taking to USAians about the rest of the world is an infuriating experience. They are incapable of introspection and they practically go cross eyed when I start listing the things they have done in my lifetime, let alone the fun laundry list of atrocities.
This goes for Europeans and the English too.
It’s just
but reserve, the “okay” ones shouldn’t even voice an opinion about other countries
A Qatari I know who games with Europeans got into an argument with them about why he’d rather his country work with China and Russia, and they legit thought saying awful actions on their part was from ten years ago and doesn’t count was some kind of solid argument; they also said America led the war against Iraq and that makes it America’s fault, not any Euro country, and they also point to any meager resistance on the part of Euro governments to Israel proves their countries aren’t in bed with Israel (yes, they actually think their governments are blameless in the Gaza genocide); he said they were Eurocentric and racist and they blew a fuse, lol
There are so many .world users just having a fit in the comments. I think you can’t see them from hexbear. It’s kind of hilarious.
Lol. To be expected from fascists
