This is called sealioning so you're really just helping my case here. Err, thanks, I guess?

Sealioning is a type of trolling or harassment that consists of pursuing people with relentless requests for evidence, often tangential or previously addressed, while maintaining a pretense of civility and sincerity, and feigning ignorance of the subject matter.

But from memory, you typically display the following rule breaking behavior:

  • "Ignorant American", "Hypocritical American", and so forth
  • "Whatever helps you cope!" "Good luck with that!" (end of conversation)
  • Posting almost exclusively stories that portray the US in a negative light

Sealioning is literally what you're doing here kid by sliding into my post to make personal attacks. I love how you think that posting negative stories about your shithole country should be against the rules. Your country is hated by majority of the world, maybe think about why that is.
