no feeling quite like seeing someone make a harmless and valid post and then someone adds on and interprets it in the most vile and stupid manner possible accusing op of being ignorant and wrong and biased etc and that’s the version with a million notes but you’re like guys that is not what they were talking about at all and you know it

#it’s random and old but i’m thinking about a post where someone was like #’i love visiting europe bc they have so much cool old stuff. nothing in america really carries the weight of history’#and someone like clowned on them being like ‘this is such a eurocentric mindset this land is older than white settlers #it’s full of rich history but you only care about your own people’ or whatever #like man i think all they were saying is they wish the town they lived in had a bunch of castles and towers made of 400 year old stone.#they wanna see big visible tangible things #as opposed to having to travel to old historical sites like that #they yearn to see the history right around them. to live in and absorb that environment #you can blame someone else for america’s indigenous cultures having been either ignored or destroyed but like #op is not that person. they’re just romanticizing living in a quaint little village it’s fine it’s ok #they yearn for castles it’s fine #they don’t deserve to be killed bc they didn’t cover every ounce of nuance #peach rambles
