There is something very very disgusting about how americans center their country in every single world event. Like, yes, its important to follow the money and hold politicians accountable, but making a world event at the other side of the world ABOUT your country and your election while speaking on an international stage is exactly why I don‘t like americans.

#i just had a WALL of posts made by americans on my dash and unfollowed a whole bunch of people over this #according to them theyre always either the savior of the world or the one starting and doing every single war and nothing in between #and it feels disrespectful and dismissive of the people actually suffering #like. its not always fucking about you #my homecountry also plays a big part in many many world events and usually not a good one #and its important to talk about it and hold people accountable and change things #but when you act as if your homecountry was the sole villain you also basically say that your country could single handedly fix it #and thats not just patronizing and self important its also insanely detached from reality
