Never you mind, sunshine.

And the reason the US public is treated so badly by their government is almost any other country would have strung their politicians up by now.

Nah. Half of Europe is just 5-10 years behind the USA, as usual on pretty much any dystopian development.

Says the person who won’t name their own country.

Maybe they won't because it's none of your fucking business?

Doesn't matter, they're right and you're just mad that you can't easily deflect to whatever may or may not be going wrong in their home country

Does it bother you that foreigners have an opinion on your country?

Does it bother you that people question your motives and the veracity of your criticisms when you try to hide yourself from like inspection?

Your country is also very likely a devolving shithole with a sordid past.

"You're not letting me dox you, so I'm gonna assume you're from a third world country which makes your opinion not matter.(but mine does)"

Truly, "Cut a lib and a fascist bleeds."

People usually assume I'm American when I disagree with them, it must have hurt their brain when they realised people outside of America disagree with them too.

Also, it's always interesting to see what assumptions people make about you when you disagree with them.

"Dox". Unless you live in Vatican City, naming your country isn't enough to be considered doxxing.

Semantics. You're being so pushy for them to reveal info to you it's creepy and suspicious.

[–] [email protected] 12 points 1 week ago

Its still creepy to pry personal information from someone on the internet.
