I'm from the US and just upvoted that. Please don't stereotype. I know there's a lot of idiots here, but we're not all stupid.

I agree with it too and I'm not accusing Americans of being idiots at all, if that's what you're saying? I'm saying that lemmy is full of anti-American propaganda.

BS. Lemmy is extremely US-centric. The world is 8 billion, the US is not even 1:20 of that. Go take a look at Lemmy's "All" feed, it's more like 20:1 for the US.

Well it's a bad comment, because I'm from the US and didn't downvote. It's also not propaganda.
