Often times they are shocked that I don’t like America, and when I tell them they destroyed my country and it’s why I’m here, they get uncomfortable because they can’t openly be smug since I’m not white. They’ll say some shit like “I’m sorry that happened. But the US has changed and we’re improving” which usually makes me laugh. Then they just do that patronizing frowny face :powercry-1: and say “I’m sorry you feel that way.” Their civility fetish prevents them from saying “well you deserved it” that’s for sure.
Online though, they don’t care lol. They’ll drop their mask as soon as you annoy them
I got into a lot of arguments about imperialism. They would usually respond by saying "everybody intervenes in Latin America. They're always fighting among themselves as well."
They also had a huge distrust for the poor that always leaned into racism. The only nonwhite people they approved of were people with degrees and six figure salaries. This was all in "liberal" New York.

Always said by people who couldn’t name a single historical event in the place they’re talking about
When you're poor you actually need the CIA to run your country.
They make sure it
It's one of the go-to racist lines about native americans as well.
If those nations in question ever try to STOP fighting amongst themselves, they get promptly couped and gaddafi'd by ((((le mysterious Helmann's jar))))

Yugoslavia officially not white.
The US has stopped "everybody" from intervening in Latin America for nearly 200 years with the Monroe Doctrine
What the... WHO?! WHO FUCKING ELSE HAS INTERVENED IN LATIN AMERICA?! Moon Men!? Those angels the Mormons think visited Central America after Jesus died?! Fine, OK the Spanish but they don't count they were the OG imperialists. IT'S ONLY BEEN THE EVIL UNITED STATES you bean-brained libs! Learn something about history other than World War 2 and the slaver founding fathers. God!
