GAK:
But I DID answer your question, "why does the US chest pounding have to be in an OP?", with this answer:
"Doesn't have to be, and I never said that it must be in an OP."

But you are not considering the context of my statement, or maybe not reading my entire statement, or maybe something else:
Date: June 20, 2020 12:48PM, paragraph 2:
What OP really was about was, "We don't want to hear from Americans" ('shut the fuck up'). It's funny, but I don't remember a single OP from a chest pounding American making whatever claim. Help me out here, any? How many, like this one are derogatory toward America? And I've seen comments about America that IMO require a response. It seems to me that if you don't want it, don't ask for it.

...not to mention that you are forgetting the context of the entire post up to that point.
...and I wasn't looking for them. Re-read the entire post, twice.
So much for the OP part.

"but you implied it":
No GAK, I didn't imply it at all. I directly mentioned it:
"And I've seen comments about America that IMO require a response".
Comments where? In a post.

Pedantic? Maybe it appears that way when I have to chase down disorganized, out of context, and/or deluded (like, made up) claims in order to provide clarity. And I think that you are referring to what mainly was intended for Quasi. Because as I pointed out just above I answered your part directly.
Do you really think that I'm going to allow a Hitler/Nazi claim just go? What the fuck is wrong with you?

You know, if it weren't for the name calling garbage and propaganda lies that you include in your comments you really wouldn't have much to say.
