That suggestion would only be as bigoted as calling criticism from an El Salvadoran bigoted. I'm a white male American and I say America is full of idiots. That was how Trump got into the White House to begin with, and it's why he's going back. It's not either party's fault, it's that the majority of Americans are just stupid.

Lets say you have a neighbor and every time you invite them over for tea they shit on your carpet.

Do you continue inviting them over? if your answer is no, well now you understand why a large portion of the american electorate didn't show up to vote again. the democrats need to stop shitting on our carpet. for the record we don't invite the republicans over either. they shit everywhere.

You havent sent signals strong enough to demonstrate you wouldn't shit on the carpet again. Trump, well, when he gets close to burning the house down again we'll probably show up with the firetrucks. probably. depends on how much hes threatening our local communities. if hes smart he wont

You are giving way too much of a pass to a lot of evil people and their propaganda by blaming it only on the voters.

I’m not completely disagreeing with you though. I’m a white dude in America too and the ignorance and gullibility of many of our citizens is astounding.

Am I saying that criticism from the outside world is a bad thing? No. What I'm saying is that I could very easily point at bad things about any country - it solves absolutely nothing.
