    We’re accustomed to the side-eyes. Feel free to continue those.

    (If possible) I’m absolutely going to visit your country and ramble on about how my great-grand-something is from there, and how good it feels to be back, and then I’ll buy souvenirs and permanently incorrectly adopt parts of your heritage that amuse me. That’s all on me. Guilty on all counts.

    But I’m not a fan of my government being a pain-in-the-ass on the international scale.

    As a pain-in-the-ass American, I value having a non-pain-in-the-ass government, so that I can still travel the world and be…uh…myself.

    Uh…I maybe could probably have presented this better…
