And as always even in the once in a blue moon they criticize their own policies, they're only crying about them getting screwed over, not the people in other countries getting 10x screwed over.

Yeah I totally feel bad for you Mr. American. I'm supposed to ignore what you did to me or my own countryfolk because obviously you're more important than us.

I just saw a political advertisement in Germany saying, "don't throw out your money, use it in front of your own door" (it's partly a saying, doesn't translate perfectly), implying that if you use your money for other's benefit, it is wasted.

People are selfish

Yep, it won’t be forgotten, that’s for sure.

Individuals among them will piss and moan ‘it wasn’t me’, ‘I didn’t vote for this’, ‘as an American I support (insert target nation here) but collectively this is on them, their apathy and selfishness.
