Yeah, that place out 'there'. Anything not really Cambodia related should go here.

Definitely sarcasm, but a pretty convincing impersonation I think you'll agree.

Western men in their mid to late 50's who have lived abroad for 10+ years are usually the biggest offenders. YouTube algorithms kill.

Because:

1 of 20 people on earth is American.

The US economy produces around one quarter of the world's wealth.

170,000+ members of the US military are stationed in 150 countries. The US has 587 military bases in 42 countries.

The US is a heavily armed nuclear power.

The US Dollar is the world's reserve currency.

All of this is objective fact, independent of any of our politics or opinions.

As an American, it’s...its...so depressing.

I’m a vet, Army. I love my country. It’s lost it’s shit and my own children are not going to live there. They don't want to.

This is America. As much as I despise Trump it started well before that, he has just thrown it all into stark relief.

I’ve recused myself from America, on grounds of nepotism. I love her, and I can’t stand her, and I’m just totally done. I’ll Live in kind of terrible countries and judge them but they won’t be my country. So it’s ok. I have the privilege to remove myself...so I am.

I am heartbreakingly sad actually.
