lol what?
I will say there is a problem worldwide, thanks to the level of discourse on social media, with people having much more shallow understanding and much more “punchy” takes without any shred of nuance (like your take). That’s not an “American left” problem. The death of nuance has eroded the entire level of discourse regardless of ideology. Worldwide. It’s why a take such as yours is even debated and not thrown right away as a trash, shallow, meaningless take.
You can ignore 95% of what I said and refuse to engage on any of those points while continuing to repeat a weak, nuance-free take with zero basis in anything anyone else can agree is happening outside of someone misunderstanding
You complain about the level Of discourse on social media. I blame the American bombs you guys dropped on my people, how you treated us and continue to treat us like subhuman enemies. How you blame your ills on my people, who were here first by the way. And now after going through all that, I see young Americans moralizing, and preaching to my indigenous ass about privilege and colonialism. Shut the fuck up and fix your country.
You all benefited from your empires crimes, you all share the responsibility if not the blame.
I don’t like to get ugly online, but Americans are the exception, y’all need to shut the fuck up about what other countries are up to and fix your shit
