    I’m not sure why you would assume I’m American. I mean, you happen to be right in this case, but I’m still not sure why you’d assume that.

    Anyhow, there’s an irony in your assertion that disagreeing with the position of one’s government is “brainwashed.”

      Americans are very ease to distinguish based both on their political stances (which tend to be rather unique) and how they express them (which IS unique).

      Y’all are like those pickup trucks with LED lights. Once you realize they exist, you can’t miss them.

        Anti-China/pro-Taiwan sentiment isn’t exactly unique to the US. I think you’re alluding to an incendiary tone with respect to how you say Americans express their views, but that doesn’t seem to quite fit so I’m a little lost there.

          I mean, clearly people can tell that you’re American, so maybe it’s time for some introspection?

            You made an assumption and you’ve yet to expound on how you justified it beyond some vague assertion about American political discourse. Give me something to introspect on, then, for crying out loud.
