    I like the part where nobody mentioned the USA until you did 😂

    As an American, it seems to me that you appear to have the economic beliefs of a middle class conservative American (“these people’s lives suck because they are lazy! How dare they complain?”). Maybe it’s time to self-reflect.

    EDIT: Doubled down in the replies lmao. Yes, pity is a common conservative emotion.

      i like how he isnt talking about what is expensive, but bitching about certain groups of americans(left leaning) are causing the problems.

      Oh, no…

      I pity 'Muricans

      But I also unfortunately see the greed and selfishness baked into the society

      The laziness is born from acceptance, because from birth, yanks are indoctrinated and few ever get the opportunity to see that the rest of the world is better

      That we value more than money

      That you have fewer freedoms than almost anywhere, and that the ability for someone with a single-digit IQ to own a firearm is a bad thing

        Pretending that there’s no greed or selfishness in your country is wild.

        Again - there are over 350 MILLION people in the US. You only make yourself look ridiculous to paint every one of us as never seeing the rest of the world or never budgeting or never suffering from anything than our own personal choices.

        Wild.

          I don’t care what you think

          Like I said, I spend a lot of time in the US

          I have many friends from there who got out

          I know that some of you travel further than a drunken trip to Tijuana

          You seem to be missing my point, either deliberately, or as a result of your “education” system

          Either way, you cannot possibly understand how little your opinion matters to me

          You’re merely one of 350 million, as you’re so keen to point out

            I love it when people who visit try to preach to an American the truth about America.

            Shitting on poor people sure is something you can do.

            God forbid the focus be where the actual corruption is and not scrutinizing a family’s choice to get grocery delivery after working 80+ hours a week.

            Good job actually focusing on the real issues, oh enlightened one.

              I don’t know how many different ways I can say that I have pity for you lot,

              Once again, I refer to the things that you appear to have missed, where I specifically excluded grocery delivery

              This is why I can’t take you seriously. You are either ignoring things that I’m trying to go out of my way to communicate, or you’re too thick to understand

              I’m not your enemy

              But, once again, I don’t value your opinion, and I am quite happy to admit that it’s because you’re American

              You’d have to surprise the shit out of me with something clever for me to take you seriously, and let’s face it

              That’s not going to happen here

                Bullshit, you said you still can’t understand why people do grocery delivery.

                You don’t understand the words you’re saying apparently.

                  I’m going to do what I should have done a while ago and ignore you now

                  Enjoy living in your shitty country and I hope that you don’t die from a perfectly treatable disease because an insurance company needed to make a rich white wine guy another few million dollars

                  Or, ya know, get shot or something

                  Either way, good luck

        You’d fit in with MAGA. They say the exact same thing about America and Americans and they’ve turned it into a worse shit hole. May as well go on Fox News and get in the comment section. You’ll fit right on in.
