For Context: I’m Chinese American, and I do not feel “ashamed” for my heritage, neither do I feel “ashamed” for being a US Citizen.

The CCP is not my fault. I do not feel any shame of saying I’m from China.

Similarly, the trump admin is not my fault, I voted Harris. I do not feel any shame for being American.

So what is the thought process of people feeling shame/guilt?

    What a helpful and fair comment that is absolutely not dripping with smug self righteousness. So refreshing!

        You pretend to be any better than the millions of random strangers you don’t know or understand but criticize anyway.

          Where do I say that? I understand American liberalism intimately, btw. People can actually know things and also think you’re wrong.

              Jesus, I see that word so misused on here but someone using it when I ask where I said something two comments above is pretty hilarious.

                Lol I know how this goes. If you had your way I’d still be quoting you and attempting in vain to argue an obvious point 3 hours from now. We can just skip all that.
