A PSA For Non-Americans

Yes, we know our situation is awful. Yes, we know our minimum wage is unlivable. No, we don't need to know how much better you have it. Take a look at how many people get killed per year by the police in this country. That's why we're not rioting. It costs money to emigrate to another country. If you can get in at all. You know we're all broke, why would you think that's a good suggestion? Your “Your country sucks, look how much better our working conditions are” come off as antagonistic at worst, and braggadocious at best. We see these posts daily already, you don't need to add your own. Quite frankly, you're not helping, you're making us resentful.
