What I'm going to say will not be kind but at this point I am not interested in being polite. I'm angry because abortion ban in Poland is another issue outbreaking in central/south Europe and we almost get no sympathy and support from US citizens who are probably the majority on this site.
Under many posts explaining the situation, there are Americans telling us to "calm down because it's not as bad as it is in US" or on the contrary "this is what will happen to us if we won't vote Biden". There are many others messages from Americans, something about y'all not understanding what's going on in Europe because there are a lot of fake news because Trump bad and uwu could you explain please we are dummies?
Then let me say loud and clear: for a nation constantly telling others how they should act and what should they care about you are as dumb as a pair of shoes, although this may be offensive to shoes because they are at least pretty useful.
As in Greek tragedy you are deemed to repeat the mistakes of your ancestors. Why? Because you don't fucking listen.
You don't listen to the American Natives, you don't listen to American POC, LGBT folks, people with disabilities and many more. How can we expect you will listen to us? I can't count how many times people from Eastern Europe were scolded for something as small as liking cottagecore because "it's hurting the natives" while we are, literally, the natives. But you don't care because you never cared about historical context, never bothered about checking facts. Which leads us to this "uwu explain please because Mr Trump bad keeps flooding internet with fake news". You don't even realise how offending it is. Polish folks, Hungarians, Ukrainian, Russian and Belarusian people risked their lives in the 40s to 80s to get news from the west because the regime didn't provided any. Nowadays Belarusian are having the internet totally cut off and have to use VPN which doesn't work almost at all, just like Northern Koreans (who are, like we once, risking their lives). And you cannot Google "Poland" "Ukraine" "Belarus"?
In your wild crusade against cultural appropriation and neo-colonialism you fail to notice that US, just like many other Western-European countries are indeed treating the rest of the Europe as their colonies. To this day many products sent to us are less nutritious than they are in the west, our countries are viewed as places to have fun for cheap price where vodka is strong and women are pretty and willing to go to bed with you for a dinner and a necklace, you look at us like some kind of wild people who only scream, fight and don't care about politics because we are not protesting in the form you want us to because we don't have the means for that.
All we want is some respect and now, with all the affairs and matters, support, keeping hashtags trending, writing letters and emails to politicians and organisations who could at least put some "peer pressure" on our countries and we cannot even ask for that.
It is a generalisation that I am not going to apologize for, no matter how many "not all Americans" comments I will see.
Also I didn't spoke for the Africans, Asians and South Americans because I am not qualified in any way to do so, but I am sure they can agree with me on that.
Americans can reblog but for fucks sake don't you dare add anything.
