Yep, if you're not from the US, instances are vastly superior.
Imagine all the times people from around the world asked for plumbing help on Reddit and got hit with "that ain't up to code, buddy, get to ass down to Howm Deeepo" ๐
Americans do tend to assume the internet revolves around them, as they're a bit insular and don't see that it really, really, really doesn't
Seriously? Aren't the anti-USA comments getting a bit tired by now?
They are tiring honestly, I agree
These two comments prove my last sentence
You don't notice the "anti"-everything comments, only the ones you perceive as "America-hate"
And by the way, nobody hates you, you're just really bad at dealing with sarcasm
No, they don't. I was addressing specifically the anti-American sentiment that seems to be the "hip thing to do". Nothing more, nothing less.
Just because I did not mention any other energy wasting hate speech does not mean I am not aware.
I still expect better from you.
