Ohhh providing examples that conflict with the narrative is complaining. Got it

    No, the dismissing tone of the message providing this contradiction is the problem. It does not have the form of simple nuances or counter-arguments. It has the form of an attack on the previous commenter's credibility.

    If counter examples to highlight flaws in blanket statements are an attack to a person's credibility then idk what to tell you.

    I'm just saying that it isn't as single facet as the screen shot tries to make it. It is/was a product of a full cultural shift and it wasn't as arbitrary as that makes it out to be.

    I don't think trying to provide a more nuanced explanation qualifies as a blanket statement...

  • And to be clear, about the core of these comments, form aside. I do not fully agree with the explanations given, while I recognise the reasonning as sound. I am just pretty sure there were and still are additional contributing factors, especially when not focusing on the USA. I do agree with thu counter examples. (Again, not with how these were given.)
