It's stunning how many people seem to forget that there are other countries on the planet that use dollars and weren't involved in Vietnam. No, I'm not making an assumption. The person who posted this is Canadian.
Y'all really need to take a step back and reflect a little bit.
I am so tired of people presuming that ~~US's economic history is somehow universal.~~ all countries have first world economy of western hemisphere, more specifically, the anglosphere. Boy do I love cultural hegemony.
This comment section is kind of hysterical. Some people saying "STOP IT ALWAYS BEING ABOUT AMERICA" and other people going "Vietnam because America" and I'm here as a Canadian like
k
And before you ask, yes. The person who tweeted that is Canadian.
i am here like ok then. go drink your maple syrup i guess. sorry i just don't understand what you are trying to convey.
My point is that you immediately went "Not all countries had the economy of America" but this isn't about America and I find that both funny and sad.
Everyone instantly goes to pointing fingers and saying "AMERICAN" and in doing so effectively treat Canada like it doesn't exist. Either Americans are too bought into (whether they realize it or not) American Exceptionalism or foreigners are too focused on them because they're loud as hell.
What economy would Canada have without the U.S., honestly? We're all kind of entangled here in North America. I know you guys are all pissed at us right now, but it was not that long ago that people would call Canada "America's little brother" endearingly
ok hold on imma fix my comment, so its correct and respects the first worlder outlook on geography.
