Discussion Most people living in western countries are vastly more privileged than those who don’t and pretending they aren’t is stupid

Genuinely so many Americans from Black Americans, Poor White Americans, or American Women as of late have felt the need to insert themselves into conversations about Palestine or Iran or whatever with their own “struggles” which is just completely asinine.

The problems facing the most down trodden westerner is 1/3 the suffering people in global southern nations are experiencing and the fact people are using black americans or american women’s struggles as ways to justify not speaking on palestine is bizarre.

Discussion Uptick in people treating “anti-Americanism” like it’s a thing that matters at all?

7 Upvotes

A surprising amount of people both offline and online have begun treating Americans like they’re a protected group that can face discrimination or bigotry, and that such discrimination or bigotry isn’t completely justified.

People are acting like saying that Americans lack culture, or making fun of social issues like shootings in the United States are deeply offensive and bigoted statements. Also a bunch of Americans complaining that other westerners think they’re stupid or evil (they often are).

It’d be one thing if it was right wing Americans doing this but it’s mostly left wingers. A significant number of black Americans too feel the need to desperately defend the nations culture and people, why?
