I love when people like you jump into replies to say inflammatory and/or stupid shit, then get mad when people respond in kind

The best pie is pumpkin, second best probably key lime but I’d have to think on it

FWIW despite these people being 90% racist sickos I think declining fertility can be a real problem especially at very low rates, and evidence shows a proper welfare state has a modest positive effect. not enough to get South Korea back to treading water, but some www.unfpa.org/sites/defaul...

Yeah sorry that ain’t it

When Bolsonaro was president of Brazil I didn’t find stupid little ways to get jabs in on them. Same with Italians under Berlusconi

This reminds me of the scene in In Bruges when Colin Farrell yells at the couple in the restaurant assuming they’re Americans and they end up being from Canada 😅

Sure! They can call themselves Americans if they want
November 25, 2025 at 4:19 PM
Correct

I actually really did try and lean into being an American when I travel and still do. I try to learn the local language, I tip well, I don’t become a stumbling drunken mess on holiday. Let them know we Americans aren’t all bad! And please don’t confuse me with a Brit 😅

Right, but that does not mean you then refer to Americans as “USians” when speaking English
November 25, 2025 at 3:59 PM
All I’m saying is there is no need to invent new terms, everyone understands where we are all from and calling Americans from the US “American” is not harming anyone

I solved this problem decades ago traveling internationally during Bush Jr’s term. I just told people I was Californian, which is both true and likely to result in a much warmer reception

We can speed it along, I know we can

Yes, I grew up having to listen to Rush Limbaugh

Right like I don’t feel persecuted or harmed by it it just lets me know what kind of silly person you are and the supposed justifications for using it always involve some white dipshit throwing non-existent Central and South American preferences in front of themselves like a shield

The offense is at people calling Americans “USians” because they seem to think it puts us in our place or something

Brazilians would call me gringa or say I had “cara de gringa total” and it was funny and understood but no one ever once tried the ridiculous “estadounidense” on me because most people know it’s silly

Dude come on, I lived in Bahia and RJ and married a gaúcho and never once met a Brazilian who liked to be known as “American” stop this nonsense.
