Dear USA,

@coleenwalter @aral Same here in the uk - the white washed image of britain's 'adventures abroad', taught to us in the 50's and 60's, was pretty much a complete reversal of the truth.
It's been an on-going re-education for me, and at 73 I'm still finding shocking facts about my country's ruling class and their use and abuse of all people, at home *and* away.
Not so 'great' britain in reality

Joking about genocide. Real classy.

Dear USA,
Donald Trump is exactly who you are.
Donald Trump is simply the #noFilter USA the rest of the world was forced to become intimately familiar with long ago; one dropped bomb and one lost family member at a time. The same USA Native Americans and African Americans have always known.
Until you fully grasp that and start learning about, accepting responsibility for, and atoning for how your country came to be and for your crimes throughout history both at home and abroad, this is what you will remain.
“This is not who we are.”
Bullshit.
This is exactly who you are and who you’ve always been.
You want to change?
Start by accepting that.
@aral shit homie, I know, I grew up with the people.

NOPE
Republican Americans did this to the whole world. Did NATO stop Bush?
Level the blame where it belongs.
Ask every tourist if they believe in democracy or or are they a Republican… -

@aral Kellog's and sugar loops with milk led people can never be educated rightly for all. -

True.
To outsiders, it's appropriate and expected to blame the US as a whole.
For those of us that live here, we can finetune that to put the blame *mostly* on republicans. But not all of it. By a long shot. -

By a long shot.@aral @IAmDannyBoling @jCarttarBrooke I never blame the whole population knowing morwe than a 3rd is homeless and 1/4 is in prison to lead the World. Most of my friends are American USA, I do not dislike the culture nor the people at all just this last administration and mostly BiBi that had a hand in the previous > look at Ukraine now you all fans of it for defending it by posting here but never grabbed a rifle and went there > who instigitated that war btw? -

I'm 73 years old. What you are saying is not how I was raised. The people who hold the beliefs that you are outlining are in the 1%. Most of America is or tries to become what the myth is. We are fighting against our corporate overlords and always have been, since the first Pullman strike in Chicago. -

Your generation are the fighters but those now are not and do not know history neither any word you said while it is clear and comprehensible for me and very many others but not the gen that leads the world right now.
I wish you many many more years to be in good health sir. -

Welcome to my block list, you are so misguided, but thank you for sharing just how far off of reality you are.
