The post from yesterday about the Greenland subreddit was very telling. Greenland and by extension Europe is threatened by America, Americans that don't share the blame, sure, go to a subreddit and flood it with "sorry" posts. That pisses people actually from the subreddit because it's counter productive, so they complain.

Suddenly Americans on Lemmy are pissed at them because how dare they get pissed at us "showing empathy"! Nah, empathy would. Be to shut the fuck up, empathy would be to recognise that flooding a subreddit with "I'm sorry" posts is annoying at best. The gall of those people to say "how date Greenland era not want us having empathy" when their actions don't actually show it... Sickening.

Then there's all of them that seem hurt by us outsiders lumping them all together. I get that, I get that y'all didn't really have a choice, really. Y'all need to get that when tensions are this high, people are not gonna use the most correct wording and as the ones in risk of being invaded, they reserve the right for being impolite to all the other Americans by generalising.

The entitlement that Americans in general have that we outsiders need to consider their personal situation before generalising them when the situation is this fucking critical... No. Grow some skin and get used to be generalised if your government is the one invading, even if you didn't have a choice. Sorry to say but bad luck, you are gonna catch some strays.

I say this as a man that has to read generalised hate towards men by women and the LGBT community because they don't have the energy to use the most proper wording. It's fine. Energies are high, people are venting. We are not talking about you personally.

Complaining that you catching stray shots from potential invadees makes y'all looks so much worse.

Btw, sorry if I used a lot of "you" when referring to Americans in this reply, while not referring to you, Voroxpete. I hope my wording was clear.
