Good on them but have you heard the term "exceptions aren't the norm"?
Whose government is ICE, DHS, and Police working for?
There are also yankistanis going out there and calling ICE on their neighbors and openly threatening people of color with calling ICE on them, when they have any disagreement, so can we call all of yankistan racist or "that's not how it works" now?
I totally agree that the US has had inflated self-worth and has been on the shittier side of shitty for decades. I agree that out government has proven useless, broken, corrupt, etc. But you4 getting into real heavy bigotry territory there.
I do not suggest anyone speak well of the US, and all should rightfully shit on out state of affairs. But, I would hope that any single person is never immediately and fully judged by where they happened to be born. Using terms like yankistan sounds a lot like the words of bigotry I was raised around made for "other" folks, in the good 'ol christian midwest deep red states. And look where that's led us.
I just call it the banana republic.
Or the US regime.
Anyway it's (since forever) cancer to the world.
No matter which side of your uniparty working for the same oligarchs is in charge.
This has nothing to do with bigotry but centuries of facts. Just bcs one of your sides now gets a little taste of what you constantly do to the world isn't going to get you sympathy.
No one said to give us sympathy. Those terms refer to the country and or government, not the individual people from there.
I grew up with people comfortable with terms for Italians, Irish, Polish, et. al., that were actually derogatory slurs. That part I am not ok with, for anyone, from anywhere.
TF are you even trying to say?
Do you feel offended someone called it ameristan or whatever? Stop being a snowflake.
The world has real problems, mostly as a result from ruthless US policies, and there the american goes to play the victim, as if they are the center of the universe. Typical. Almost as bad as israeli
You can call me whatever the fuck you want to call me. I don't think I have said contrary. I know I live in a shithole country. I didn't want to be here during the previous shits, I sure as hell don't want to be here for this diarrhea nightmare. Wtf am I going to do about it, as an old, broken, broke ass, kept from education and gainful employment, not allowed to own firearms, ignorant american cunt? Let my family and elderly parents die as I go out in a single 'pfft of glory with my bb gun and pepper spray, while the state takes the house?
I said and am saying, people comfortable with using derogatory slurs for groups of people, just because of a facet of their being, such as skin color, country of origin, number of limbs they are born with, who they are attracted to, where their body grows hair... is bigotry. Bigotry is not good.
Yes. U.S. is shit. Yes. U.S. is bad. No one is arguing this.
Making up and using derogatory slurs still makes a person a bigot. You can denounce things and use reasons and facts, you can name call and curse, all without bigotry.
