  • While you are probably correct that criticism of the USA (and of its citizens) pops up too often in unrelated topics, I think that you are basically just discovering what it is to not be the ultra dominant demographics on a platform. It doesn’t mean it’s right or anything, everyone should strive to make Lemmy a welcoming place, but it’s certainly going to take work on both sides. That said, I would like you to re-read some of what you wrote:

    and their obvious jealousy and insecurity regarding Americans

    For one thing, my command of the English language rules that out, which isn’t something I can say about many of you.

    America controls the world, and Europeans are salty about it. I didn’t even realize how salty until I started using Lemmy

    I swear to God I’ma start criticizing the metric system again

    The amount of condescension dripping from your comments is frankly off the chart, and you should maybe take a minute to ponder whether you are actually behaving as you preach, rather than just being in your own American circlejerk, as you might have called it had the shoe been on the other foot.

    In any way, being an admin/mod is a thankless task, so I for one appreciate you for doing that, and maybe everyone can learn a bit from sharing a community.
