Something that I've noticed, both in the fediverse and other places, is that when marginalized people within the US complain about the US, non-USians arrive to remind us that we're still American, and therefore the ways we're marginalized don't matter and they don't care... in a way they do not talk to or respond to privileged Americans.
They use Black and Indigenous people in the US as acceptable targets for their hatred of the US instead of the people driving policy and holding the world hostage.
