There's nothing wrong with being an introvert. You'd probably have to join people, still, even if you are an introvert. I think the question is fine because the answer doesn't necessarily mean they should stay away from protests, etc.. The answer could be encouragement to join the protests, etc.

-by killing and stealing. I'm not saying the populations are 100% or even 2% evil in these countries, but their countries' foundings should've never happened, at least not in the way they did

Ah, I see, and I suppose Sweden and Finland have their ethical flaws (like the governments do) with Lapland and such. I guess my thing is with countries which formed 100% on stolen land. Those countries are illegitimate because they were 100% formed-

I like European countries more than the ones I mentioned because they weren't formed through settler-colonialism

The other ones

Sure. Why not? Maybe expand it to the NATO countries as well

Yeah. I suppose steal votes away from them when you can. In solid colored states/counties, we can vote for better parties to steal votes away from the Democrats

It's obviously not as serious as racism, but I was talking to someone who genuinely holds a view that nationalities can be treated monolithically, so sometimes they're not joking. I guess I'll try to figure out when someone is joking about it or not

Not all Americans are bad. By your logic, The Kavernacle is inherently evil because he is automatically a British Imperialist because he was born there

The people who approved of the war do have a lot of stuff wrong with them, but I still wouldn't say all Americans are bad

Things take time. People try to win under a better party. The odds are stacked against them

They don't all collectively love war

Propaganda led people to believe things that were wrong. I'm sure if it wasn't for the propaganda, the stats would be a lot lower for these approval rates. Besides, you believe that if people are born in the US, they are automatically bad. That's not true or how that works

The government, the land, and the history, in this context. The people have some say when it comes to the government and history, yes, but why do you think that everything in US history was collectively agreed upon by 100% of the population?

Are you sure they're not talking about the country rather than the people as a whole?

The electoral college and other factors have kept other parties out of power, making the Democrats and Republicans the only viable options for president

That doesn't mean all Americans. I don't think you've had enough time to meet all 340 million plus of them

You're also excluding crucial context. Only two viable parties? The two parties have similar foreign policies

Why do you treat people monolithically?
comment in response to
post
Screw the US, but not necessarily Americans. Only the government, the founding of the country, and the people who have done evil

Yeah. Sorry, that is. I hear the major parties aren't very good at all there. Don't give up, though

I'm not from there, but I hope reform doesn't actually win. I hear they're super right wing

-counterintuitive. I guess I could be wrong though
comment in response to

I feel like a military coup would be counterintuitive. Maybe it'd be different if it were a revolution instead. Led by former civilians. At the moment, I'm not sure how necessary a revolution is, but if leftists, progressives, and liberals have to get violent, I believe a military coup would be-

Wow. Good on Australia for that!

None of this matters. Good Americans exist, and Bad Irish people exist. Same vice versa and for every other nationality. This trend with some leftist YouTubers and some of their followers to treat people groups monolithically is so hypocritical
comment in response to
post
Probably. YouTubers also posted Minecraft less at the time due to less interest. They probably also did this to compensate

I guess you live here, too. Sorry. I still think you'd be wrong if you were serious

Oh okay. Maybe. I didn't have reddit back then. I just remember people making fun of it at school

I've been playing Minecraft since 2012/2013. I remember from 2016-2019, it was considered uncool and boring, but I never stopped playing. The game deserves its fame

Any belief where one treats an entire group of people as a monolith is idiotic and divisive

For real. I wouldn't use the term "race" for this situation, though. Maybe nationality would be better
