    I know you weren’t attacking me, but I still want to reply to this.

    So many people are viewing this crisis from afar as some sort of sardonic entertainment

    Maybe this was the case in 2016, but not anymore. Not for a long time. And not just me personally. People take it very seriously abroad. That said, I reserve the right to laugh at these idiots whenever I want to.

    even cheering for the whole country to go down along with everyone in it

    Again, no, this is not entertainment. However, I might have voiced opinions about there being no easy sustainable way out of this crisis, seeing how much I learned about the USA system of governance along the way.

    Lastly, I have always been fully aware of the global implications, and usually include that in my comments. This concerns us all. Anybody abroad trying to wave it off with a laugh is an idiot.
