Ah. As a citizen of the US I dont use "we" and "us" when referring to the US state.

Because it is not necessarily great to subsume your identity to an empire

And that's what you've decided this is?

[-] OurToothbrush@lemmy.ml 2 points 9 months ago

Why else would you speak of the US state as if you were a part of it, with "we" and "us"?

[-] Mango@lemmy.world 2 points 9 months ago

Because I'm in it. What do you want from me?

[-] OurToothbrush@lemmy.ml -2 points 9 months ago

You're in the US government?

Lolol. No.

Not referring to when soldiers of our genocidal government is attacked as "an attack on us" is literally just not being a nationalist.
