#so dont get fucking pedanty at me when we all know what i mean when i say american

[submalevolentgrace]

a few months ago i was having a rant about how self absorbed americans are they don't even care about their role in the looming asia pacific war because it won't really affect them like it will us, and some fucking yank proved the point by coming back with that "i hope you mean the big evil government and not us regular innocent people, because don't you know healthcare blah blah supreme court blah blah" like they always fucking do, and in my frustrated anger i blocked them and deleted the OP so nobody else would do it but

i really wish i hadn't now, it was just such a perfect example of exactly how americans are so violently insular and exactly why i consider them culpable for consistently framing all english language narratives around them and doing the groundwork enforcement of cultural imperialism and propaganda

i honestly dont know if i'll ever be able to demonstrate the point as clearly as that interaction
