We cut ties with American people because they are annoying, puritanical and self-entitled.

I know this is a hot take but this would actually just be racism if it weren't for everyone globally thinking it is funny and warranted to dunk on americans when conveinant.

We don't need to involve racism, an American pseudo-science, to consider Americans barbarians. That's what an American would do: to reduce everything about race when it has nothing to do with it.

Also, it's white guilt, we all know American liberals and leftists enjoy this stuff.
