I'm trying not to block people. But there's only so many times I can go 'give people the benefit of the doubt' and then click their blog and what's literally the third or fourth post on their blogs? They talk about middle eastern people like savages who can't control their violent urges. And of course, more than half of them are Americans. After posing for 20 years, the masks that temporarily went up when anti-war activists criticised the American war in the Middle East are slipping, some of you never really believed brown people to be your equals did you? Get the fuck off my blog.

#it's infuriating to watch. American voices drowning out everything el. American opinions rule everything. American politics shapes the world #shut the fuck up; you live in Cincinnati OH USA. This will not affect you like the people in countries you cannot point on the map #an honorary citizenship doesn't change that #every time the US talks it's so loud that it automatically becomes default opinion because (as we have covered countless times before)#any and all events elsewhere are framed in world media as 'how does this affect the US' or 'what does the US think of this?'#and that's how we get shit like 'US vetos at UN' being talked about more than 'all countries EXCEPT the US voted for a ceasefire in the UN'#(for which an American zionist blocked me: why should an American's opinion on this be most important?)#rant #give me strength; I go outside and people are way more even-headed but my god online it's awful #some day the west will treat everyone else as important and not just because they import (/steal) natural resources from there #or that the US has a strategic military base there #(e.g.: imports: the reason the US doesn't fuck with China too much.#geographical proximity to China and Russia: the reason why the US wants an ally in India #military outpost to the middle east: Israel. Raw materials: african nations. You get me?)#though it's insane how far they're going to defend Israel rn; they'd have dropped any other ally of convenience by this point
