    Tomorrow you wake up American. You are the same person, nobody asked your permission, you had no say in the matter, but you are within the borders of America, are a citizen, and have no other citizenship. In fact, because you are American, no country will take you, and even if they would, it would take years up emigrate.

    What do you do?

      More than Americans have, presumably. All this US apologia is fucking hilarious, you guys elected a pedophile. Fuck off with this “not all americans” bullshit. Do something about it, or youre a pedo protector, simple as. If you dont like the entire world hating you, dont commit evil shit as a country.

      To be clear, i am American. We all deserve every bit of hate the world can muster.

          I feel like people should be able to muster up extra hate for each country that needs it. Hopefully your hatred for one doesnt reduce your hatred for the other.

        I’m confused, are you American or not?

        It seems like you wrote most of the comment being not an American (emphasis added):

        More than Americans have, presumably. All this US apologia is fucking hilarious, you guys elected a pedophile.

        …then you said you were an American.

        It’s fine if you’re not an American. But just engage in good faith please.

      The options are run or fight.

      And your scenario seems to eliminate run as an available option.

      They give us entertainment and lifestyles that are planned, focus groups, and created to psychologically make us disassociate from the reality of humanity.

      It’s not even a conspiracy anymore. And when I say they I mean the corrupt class and the American dreamers that think because they are attaining success from a taught career that they are somehow on the right side of history.
