Be fair OP. America became a laughing stock the moment Trump was elected.

Mate, we’ve been laughing at you for decades.

At least Trump only really hurt America, unlike the third world countries everyone one of your presidents bombs and murders.

Please tell me you’re British. Because that would make your moralizing about Americans go from mildy amusing to outstandingly hilarious.

I’m not.

Pity. But judging from your vernacular, you’re from a Western country, none of which have a stellar history when it comes to colonialism and imperialism. So I would wager your particular nation has done some really shitty, fucked up things in the past. Probably at least a few genocides, eh? Maybe more? Shall we gloss over those atrocities, so your comment doesn’t come off as ridiculous?

It’s funny how interested you are in whataboutism.

From a colonial nation, so yes we’ve done horrible things to the original inhabitants. I accept that fact.

Unless you’re addressing every Western nation with your remarks, then it’s just whitewashing your own nation’s crimes against humanity. Pointing that out isn’t whataboutism, it’s a perfectly valid argument addressing your hypocrisy. I’m not going to say you’re wrong, because you’re not. But I think we can all agree we had really good teachers on how to be horrible.

So maybe don’t call people laughingstocks over something your country is probably also still engaging in to this day, eh?

Yeah, no.

That's not how it works, you don't get to not be called massive jokes because of our utterly dysfunctional and pathetic you are just because other nations have done bad shit.

This idea that you have to be 100% pure to be able to comment on others actions is unrealistic.
