I have been noticing more of this bullshit lately. Lots of foreigners spouting their opinions on Trump vs Biden and the 2024 election

That’s not to say they can’t have an opinion. However if they don’t live in this country nor have to live under the policies our elected leaders have enacted then they better stfu when it comes to lecturing Americans.

They can have an opinion. But their opinion should never be respected as equal to an American citizen who votes here and lives here when it comes to politics. American citizens have to live with the direct fall out of elected leader’s policies. They don’t (most of the time). At least not directly

To a limited extent I give more leeway to nationals who are from our direct neighbors (Mexico and Canada). Some but not full leeway. I also can also understand citizens in war time nations (Ukraine, Russia, Israel, Gaza, etc) are obviously going to be heavily impacted by US policy. I can see why people from these countries have a vested interest in the outcome of the 2024 election.

But most foreigners are getting their news about American current events directly from our mass media (CNN, FOX, MSNBC, NBC, etc.) and not from independent journalists. They are getting a very warped and twisted view on what life is really like here. Sure their own countries have their own journalists. Some of them might even live in the USA and cover stories about that they eyewitness. But most of them are getting their updates from heavily partisan sources (including famous celebrities spouting their twisted views). So they are misinformed from the start.

Just seeing a lot this bs on GAG lately. I know I don’t waste my time lecturing foreigners about their domestic politicians and elections.

You know how it is, right? You go to respond to a question and you hit submit, then the red bar appears to let you know that everything you just typed was a waste because the prick has you blocked. So how do you personally react to it?
