But that were some good opportunities to dunk on the world epicenter, i've always took them
What id like to see on Lemmy is less America-hate... Or just hating on countries in general. Hatable humans live in countries, let's talk about them instead of everybody in that country. "Gunshot story? Must be America!" Gets old really quick
I hate many countries, USA included. But not the people. Heck I even hate my own country.
The thing is, the people don't run those countries.
But, also I do need to mention that the laws that are being made do affect the society and their ideas.
This, nationalism is just the worst. You've achieved nothing by being born in a certain country, waving that flag around proudly thinking you're superior to anyone else is just something i can't understand.
Countries that import imperialism abroad should be disliked and hated though that shouldn't be a controversial statement.
Nice try, American person.
