Okay but comparing it to the whole EU is nonsense especially when you compare its “diversity” to only spain and find it wanting comparing the examples you gave to Catalonia vs Basque county vs Galicia and you can find similar major differences in many individual EU countries. The US is not a monolith no but compared to a multiple country alliance is insane.
Deleted my windows partition I’ve been dual booting for a year and finally deleted my google account.
You should learn about experiences outside your own that you are not is not a good thing.
Except that’s not true states are no where near similar to countries. Hell a lot of european countries are arguably more diverse internally by far than america examples include the spanish regions, french regions, italian regions and so many others. To argue the US is like the EU is to completely ignore the independence of EU counties and how each of those organizations work to a delusional level. The US throughout its country is very culturally similar with most differences on racial and economic basis.
Fine if you want your websites to be an american echo chamber you do you. Thats what you want not me and thats not what sites you probably claim to be american advertise themselves as either.
It would be a lot easier for me to do if i hadn’t deleted my reddit account. It is all over basically ever post muslims are demonized, the american military is not the evil it obviously is, mra’s and anti-feminists infest the site, Moral police ranting against black lives matter, both siding between people wanting to live and the people who want to kill them, transphobia is the default and so many more hateful opinions were the default on reddit.
Americans size doesn’t excuse their ignorance and a lot of other countries don’t believe they are the only country the way americans do.
Good I hate this attitude some have that protests should never even mildly inconvenience others. It completely ignores any basic history of protest movements and the fact some point to MLK JR shows they don’t know anything about him and how “disruptive” some of his sit ins and marches were. Go Greta we need to take extreme action about climate change immediately its an extreme emergency.
I mean not really that’s not how it was at all. Default subreddits were filled with racism. Comments and posts were not removed unless the comment was straight up saying slurs. Comments filled with less overt racism were heavily upvoted.
Protecting minorities so our communities can be a diverse place makes them so much better though. No one claims it will end racism that is just a ridiculous straw man.
I mean this is true and was a problem on mastodon when i joined as well with twitter but it died down and I can hope the same happens here.
Countries that import imperialism abroad should be disliked and hated though that shouldn’t be a controversial statement.
The norm on Reddit was that american superiority though outside of niche subreddits.
This comment itself is ironically filled with American exceptionalism mythology.
Yeah you can’t like to see it and what it signals. Either literal fascists or neo-liberals who’s opinions are little better are in power all around the world currently.
Okay but the confederation of states has one of the strongest centralization in the world so pretending the US is some bastion of local autonomy is nonsense.
