I find the "self loathing american on the internet" act to be about as performative as putting a pink ribbon on your social media avatar after a shooting. It's not introspective in any meaningful way.

I've seen that sentiment shared a couple of times in the past day and little else before. Just something I've noticed...

I find the self loathing is usually well qualified and not at all a performative act. Performative for who exactly?

The rest of the world, presumably

As a European, I apologise for this arrogant reply considering how awful Europe has been as an ally over the past 50 years. I promise we will do better and am glad that we're finally trying for once.

Now let's see your introspection (:

When I was in the middle east as part of the US Army I really felt like my European friends had my back, no complaints here.

Apologies the other way around, though.

I mean, I’m British and I’ve done a fair amount of introspection about the actions of my own government over the years.

I guess I should have included that in my reply in case someone else thought I was being hypocritical ?
