When they stop being huge fucking problems, we'll stop making fun of you for them :P

Like the rest of the world doesn't have huge fucking problems? The UK withdrawing from the EU, the caste system in India, Sharia law in Saudi Arabia, the Uyghurs in China, homophobia in Russia, a string of military juntas in central Africa, Netanyahu in Israel, etcetera, etcetera.

Yet all we hear about on here is America bad!! No one is saying the U.S. is perfect, but we can talk about multiple problems at once.

When the majority of the posts on this platform stops being US-centric we will stop talking so much about the US...
