It usually doesn't bother me unless it's something like this
American- criticizes something foreign
Every single reply to that comment- "School shootings!! Hahaha!! Dead kids!!! Hehehehe!!"
Or when they extropolate from America the country being shit, to every individual American being shit for having the audacity to have been born here.
Most of us would also rather it wasn't like this, but our families, friends, and livelihoods are here, so generally speaking it's not practical to just up and leave. And our political system is to broken for us to really fix via voting
Trash on the country all you want, I'll join in with you - but don't blame the folks who are just trying to live the best we can in this fucked up country
