Listen, in a conversation about a nation's faults, I'm very willing to call out and diss what my own government is doing.
I'll even give you more context about how it's actually worse than the article that you shared me suggests, and tell you that the issue persists far longer and has far deeper causes and consequences. I'll also tell you that at the very least, I'm trying, as a fucking citizen, to try and make it better.
You think telling me that my country regularly violates human rights? Same, baby. The difference is, 1) I don't pretend for a second that my country's worth a damn or the Greatest Thing Since Sliced Bread™, and there's nothing special about my nation, unlike you, and 2) unlike you, I don't hide behind “I don't set policy”, as if it's only your government that's bad, as if your government, as a fucking democracy, is not a reflection of you as an electorate (more so since your country has compulsory voting), and as if you don't belong to the same ethnic and social class that goes off to other countries like colonizing locusts.
Next time don't come into someone's thread and whitesplain.
