    God, you make it sound so easy. I feel so stupid. Why didn’t I think about just doing something about it? Don’t worry mate. With your brilliant insight I’ll have it fixed by Wednesday.

        I mean, this problem isn’t confined to lines on a map. No effective solution will be either. Those lines are just fantasies that powerful people use to stay in power.

          Stop making excuses. This is a problem of your own country’s creation, and it’s up to you, not the rest of us, to fix it.

          We have our own problems. Liberating the US is not under our remit. We are not the world police.

            I didn’t create this problem anymore than you did. This problem existed long before I was born and has consistently gotten worse in ways I have no control over.

            No one’s asking you to fly to the US to personally rip Donald Trump’s throat out.

              I didn’t say you did personally.

              Stop asking for other countries to do the work your own country should be doing.

              It’s not our job to sort out your mess.

              American nationalism strikes again.

        The fact of the matter is that the governments of the world have a lot more power to do something about it than non-wealthy US citizens. But they’re not.
