American exceptionalism is ingrained so deep in most people here that they would never even consider or doubt why the world pays attention to them, just: “Duh of course they do, because we’re America!”
Americans run around moralizing while exploding everyone. They impose their views and politics into every country on earth. But if you criticized them for being idiots who allowed Trump to win, they tell you “you’re not even American!” As if American stupidity doesn’t affect the rest of the world. And this is the kind of shit I’m hearing from the American left now the side that was supposed to be smart and reasonable, and you know, not racist or xenophobic. But they’ve also gone toxic extreme as well. Americans are nuts.
I think there should be a major distinction between Democrats/neoliberals/however you want to classify them and “the American left”/progressives.
They often fall under the same tent because progressives do not have another substantial place in American politics, but I think these are 2 different groups with different beliefs and ideas.
But if you criticized them for being idiots who allowed Trump to win, they tell you “you’re not even American!”
Not from me. Anyone who voted for Trump or sat around to let him be elected is a fucking moron.
I learned in 2016 I had too much faith in my fellow citizens. There are many, many stupid people here.
👋 yep… Tbh, I just never thought through the “their shit is next door” part… just the “they have a lot of shit” part
Or they could realize the reality of the situation without making it about taking credit for being “the best”. As an American I know our country sucks, especially now, and also that it’s important for global stability.
Nah, it’s probably what you said. I just truly think the US is way better than any other country. /s
Edit: I missed that they wrote “most”. In my defense though a lot of users are currently cruelly shitting on Americans unconditionally. A lot of us didn’t want this bullshit
Huh? Sorry, not ALL Americans. I did say “most”
I missed that. My bad.
Dear Earth,
The U.S. is about to fuck over humanity.
Zero fucks about climate change.
Leadership connections with the worst ass hats on the planet.
I apologize.
I wish y’all the best.
Americans: Why don’t foreigners care about every aspect of America every second of every day?
Imagine if China had bases like that
Comparisons here on Wikipedia, sometimes on the linked page.
My first thought was to wonder if we’ll try to buy Greenland again.
Apparently, some have been pushing that last week already…
Sorry, World. 😑
If the US bought Denmark, they’d probably get Greenland with it. Just saying.
(now some idiot is probably going to try this)
In 3 months we’re going to have a Secretary of Defense that’s on the Fox and Friends B-Team, and a panel of MAGA generals purging the ranks. I am not ruling anything out of the future timeline we’re on…
These are some of the same people who don’t know who the president of Puerto Rico is, so they might just move in thinking the place is abandoned.
Putin is gonna pee his pants in glee when his orange tool starts shutting them down
Hegseth is as hawkish on Russia as he is on China. But I would be less worried as Putin than I would be as a draft-eligible American. We’re only going to double down on wars with this new guy in charge and that manpower needs to come from somewhere.
That boy has likely been away from service long enough not to know his head from his toes
Seems like they just hate industrious hard working war mongers. Can’t a warlord catch a break?
Americans may be surprised to find that foreigners actually don’t pay as much attention to US elections as they think. Even many people in the US don’t care, they’re just inundated with media coverage of it. At most about 66% of eligible voters even vote and the people that do vote aren’t necessarily informed. You may have seen interviews with undecided voters. They turn up to vote but haven’t necessarily put much thought into it.
As an aside, I find it funny when Americans scream about other countries empire building and carrying out provocative military exercises when the US has so many military bases everywhere. You don’t need to officially annex land to control it, that’s old style thinking.
I’ve never once wondered this.
