We don't do that when America is mentioned.

We do that when America is yet again too full of itself, to keep them down a notch.

We can't help it if that is the only thing Americans do.

And then the random citizens who defend or justify ignoring it either take offense instead of agreeing it’s fucked up, or grasp at straws with whataboutism to shift the issue.
