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.
