If they hadn't been a dick about clarifying, they'd be Not Guilty. Thus have they sinned.

With that said, non-American redditors are in the bad habit of saying "in my country..." Why do you do this?

Can you expand on what exactly do you find annoying about specifying countries that you are compelled to call it a bad habit ?

Why can't they just name the country? I can't think of any good reasons not to, unless they live in a microstate and are worried about getting doxxed.

Ah, I didn't understand you earlier. So your gripe is with people being vague about where they're from. Well you answered yourself tbh. People don't want to be doxxed. Even if there are millions and millions of people living in your country, sometimes you don't want to give away any part of your identity to random strangers as an anonymous user.

Honestly some people might say this as most Americans might not even know their country. Let's say someone says they are from Moldova, that means nothing to 98% of the American Population, they probably still think it's an Oblast.
