I'm an American (Californian) and I go out of my way to buy non-American. If not that, I use Goods Unite Us to boycott any company that donates to the fascist GOP.

You got banned from here for that?

I literally left Reddit after they temporarily banned my account for writing that Trump's trial will be televised just like Saddam's.

Why do we only control the speech of leftists?

Both are acceptable, I've read.

The modern English representation of the classically correct Greek plural (had the word been so used in ancient Athens) would be octopodes. The common plural octopi (1817) regards the -us in this word as the Latin noun ending that takes -i in plural. As with many modern scientific creature-names, it was coined in Modern Latin from Greek elements, so it might be allowed to partake of Latin grammar in forming the plural. But probably the best policy for common words is to follow the grammar of the living language using them, and octopuses goes best in plain English (unless one wishes also to sanction diplodoci for the dinosaurs).

This comment would earn you a suspension or ban on reddit. That's how I know you're right.

The US isn't even an ally to itself.

I'm just upset they killed all this octopuses.

I also just learned that the word isn't octopussies.

They call it accelerationism.

No way Biden wins a second time. His mind was critically failing during the debates, the average voter saw that, and minorities didn't win him the election overall, white people did.

You know, you're winning me over. You do sound like an idiot.
