This article was posted shortly before the election but everything in there is still true and seeing his appointees perhaps worse than predicted.

    Get fucking rekt. Like an Aussie has any right to say they’re better than the USA. Go find a Norwegian and you got a deal.

    “Get rekt” implies you think there’s a game. I don’t consider conversations competitions, but I know a lot of young people come to forums for that sort of thing. Now, if there was a game board, I won, seeing as how you’re saying that Nordics can say they’re better than the USA. And I’m Nordic. So… it is your opinion that I should be allowed to hold myself as better than the USA, right?

      It’s my opinion, as an American that almost anywhere can hold themselves up higher than the USA, The Australian had the gall to consider his island of hate doesn’t have all the same potential, and with China near, I’d say more.

      Then, we’re splitting successes, comfort, or morality. Is any country morally just, entirely?

      Has Greenland ever beefed with anybody?

        So that’s a “yes, you can consider yourself better than the country I live in”?
