      I know many non-US people, especially from the global south, who take the attitude: Hey the US government is full of enemies to us, don’t try to tell me anything good about any one of them, please and thanks. For them to take that viewpoint honestly makes perfect sense to me.

      I know absolutely 0 of them who go on message boards and get real involved in talking with Americans about how they should view American politics and who they should support in American elections or who they shouldn’t, and how to view it, and what those people did in domestic US politics decisions and why that should impact who I support in the election.

      Just one of those little mysteries one encounters sometimes

        here! me! i’m literally doing this right now!

        i literally just typed out a big explanation in another post on why biden (and democrats for that matter) are just as harmful to us here, and how he might be setting the stage for a worse trump presidency. i’m pretty open with my political positioning and origin too.
