I get it, it's a shitty situation, and it sucks being lumped in with Nazis. Your responses here don't help. You are playing the rude, standoffish yank, and that fits the 'all americans' narrative perfectly. Gives 'not all men' vibes.

All US citizens (myself included) feed the evil empire and share some of the blame. I've had many conversations with those who despise Trump, but still prop up his neo Nazi movement though defensiveness, American exceptionalism, and shit talking other countries in response to grievous unfair actions of the USA, rather than offering up humility and contrition. America's unchecked aggression is a matter or both style and substance, if you dont agree with their substance, then don't get mad and use their style. If, given the depths to which the USA has sank, Americans still can't say 'we are all implicated' then the national strike moment will never come.

Oof. It's like a nice stately gentleman, with a huge Bass Pro Shops logo tattooed to his forehead. Much better now.

He needs to battle against Link on the ocarina. No fighting, just breath control and sick finger work!

When to world looks at Russia attacking Ukraine, most people realize that there are Russians who are anti-war. That doesn't negate the fact that 'Russia' is in fact to blame, and things are largely viewed on a country to country level, for a conflict between two countries. You might ask 'Why don't they kick out Putin?' And answer ' Russia has a long history of bowing to imperialists'. The thought process is very similar when it comes to how the world views the USA, and Americans, right now.

The political will of the nation caused this, and USA has a long history of unjustified brutal aggression. You've been demonstrating well a big piece of the problem, which is that America thrives on a lack of accountability, and rather than showing shame and humility, such as expressing how ashamed you are of the nation's actions, or how sad you are that the world begins to view America this way, instead it's all defensiveness, deflection of blame, and 'shut up idiot you dont know shit'. It is, and has been, put up or shut up time for a while now, a general strike or similar huge action is desperately needed and the fact that it hasn't happened can only be blamed on Americans.

Hey guys don't worry! It's not a loss of all your money, just like it wasn't a full on Nazi salute.

Ok here me out, we get the tree planters to plant massive weed fields all over the Canadian wilderness, then whenever the fires blow smoke south, is has the side effect of chilling America the fuck out for a minute.
