    I made a post that I’ve got linked in my bio. Some shit went sideways, very very sideways, and I’ve been struggling to get through it for a hot minute. After getting to a point of desperation I posted about it on Lemmy and the reaction was… well to say overwhelming would be an understatement. Thus all the thanks <3



















  • So this is something that I’ve noticed recently, and honestly, it’s pissing me off. America has spent an absurd amount of its existence pushing its influence around the rest of the world, whether that be media or military. In all of it, American exceptionalism runs rampant, with Americans believing that they have the best country on the planet. Often comparing America to other countries as if America is the basic template of what something should be. Yet, when someone who is not an American decides to have an opinion on America, the Americans expect special treatment, saying that we do not know what it is like there. Yet they are the country that does not shut the fuck up about themselves.
