“we we we”. Again I’m not sure who you’re thinking of but it isn’t me.

You don't get to be an American when it makes you feel good, and then disavow the collective identity when it makes you feel bad. We, as Americans, have a collective responsibility, just as we have collective achievements, collective loss, collective memories. You either own up to it even when it's shit, or you give it up. Wearing your Americanism as a fashion statement, only when it's in season, is risible and pathetic.

I disavow my American identity all the fucking time but I’m not gonna pretend I’m not stuck with these idiots even if I hate it.

What I mean is, when you revel in Americanism, you must also accept shame in Americanism. There's no "I want all of the credit and none of the blame" option, except for shitwits like MAGA et co; and THAT is a strange and elaborate form of public self-humiliation that can only be perceived by those who read above a second-grade level, and I would not recommend it.
