While I share that sentiment at times, I think about how the rest of the world looks at America.

Like if someone said:

"Americans did this to themselves. Fuck them."

Like damn, I didn't do any of this I'm just trying to survive 😭

You have a healthy sense of compassion

Depends on the time of the day, if Trump/Musk is raging/etc.

You Americans collectively did this to yourself.

You did do this to yourselves, while the rest of us told you exactly what was going to happen for decades. You gave us the finger and renamed French fries. Even the best among you are complacent at best and whining cowards at worst.

“I’m just trying to survive.” Great, you do that while your country burns down around you. Just look out for yourself, someone else will surely save you.

Americans deserve what they’re getting.

Yeah, no, I didn't vote for this, but yeah, Americans did this to ourselves and it sucks.
