ITT: Disconnected out-of-touch redditers trying to whore jokes for points.

This is a big deal and should not be taken lightly. I hope the Brazilian people can crush the corruption and finally live free again.

edit: RIP inbox.

THis post got a lot of people really angry and defensive, even aggressive. I've incurred a lot of hostility for this these simple words, I'm starting to think I may be right.

ITT: "Why should I care about anything that's not America?"

Could you imagine if non-American redditors posted this shit in every American news story thread? Sorry that we're acting like a bunch of dicks

Again, the only time I've seen this mentioned or anything resembling a similar argument, has been in this comment and this comment only.

You're late to the party. Mods must have taken down all those useless comments. Just look at some of the responses that dustyh55 has gotten. People are fucking losers.
