Even if you excluded them (which seems like a very approach) these people are only illiterate because they’re from brown countries", you still have an education system where 13.9% of people are coming out illiterate.
I’m all for american self-depreciation
I am not american
because we have so many immigrants
Nice of you to edit in the part that confirms you’re not just a nationalist, but a racist too.
Lol damn you don’t have to call me racist. I’m not, and just saw someone using a pretty general statistic to imply American education is terrible or something. I’m just someone who sees appropriation of incomplete information to create a half baked idea that makes people feel like they understand something complex when in reality we are all probably wrong in this thread. Such is the internet though.
And I was talking about my own opportunity to self depreciate, and wasn’t assuming anyone elses nationality.
Yes I did edit my comment lol. We do have a lot of immigrants that may come from poorer countries in search of a better life. Whats wrong with that? How do you know I’m not specifically proud of that for my country? You are the one implying Americans are less-than because of some statistic.
When you are so militant with discussions, how will you ever come to an understanding? Why be so mean?
If I thought it was failing of character to be illiterate then you could maybe say I was blaming immigrants. I think it’s a lot harder to uproot your life and risk it all to bring your family where the grass is greener than it is to learn your ABC’s.
Why do you assume immigrants are brown? Because you are probably right. That’s okay.
It’s okay to have a lower literacy rate if our country is helping people have better lives. It’s okay that discussions of immigration and nationality sometimes involve ethnicities. It just makes sense that those qualities are discussed and related.
It’s also okay if american school systems need to improve. I promise everything will be okay.

“Calling me racist for blaming immigrants is so meaaaaaaan!!!”
If I didn’t want to be called racist, I would simply not say something racist.

Can you stop filling my inbox with nationalist bullshit? Christ, I couldn’t read past the first line. Grass is greener my ass.
Hope you find the help you need. Let me know if you want to talk.
Ableism, nice.
When you stop emotionally reacting to people criticising your government let me know? You owe as much loyalty to governments as you owe to your boss.
