American here.

How much do you care about the average Russian, who hasn't done shit to overthrow Vlad and the oligarchy there for decades?

We need to do something about our domestic problems instead of going on the internet and grandstanding to the people we're harming about how "we're one of the good ones".

Seriously, let's have a modicum of self respect and stop begging Canadians to like us, and instead do something about the reasons why they don't.

This is a surprisingly self aware and refreshing take from an American.

When you're right you're right. It's hard, especially for people pleasers like me to stop apologizing for shit like this but it's time to realize we're making things worse, not better.
