    I’m also an American, and this is 100% accurate. My countrymen are assholes, and the only thing they’ve ever cared about are problems that directly affect them.

      Turns out the ‘shining beacon on a hill’ and the ‘thousand points of light’ they used to talk about were all crosses burning.

      Huh, I’m American and I’m surrounded by people who are incredibly kind and nurturing and will bend over backwards to help others. Sounds like you live in a shit part of the country if you only have assholes near you.

        You live in a country filled with people who voted Trump into power. You’re surrounded by assholes, and if you don’t think so then you’re either an asshole with them, or a blissful idiot. I’ll leave it to you to decide which.

          I live in literally one of the most blue states there is. I know of 1 person who voted for Trump. And if a cup that is only 30% full is considered “overflowing” where you live I would love to move there and open up a bar. I’m sure I’d make a killing.
