Yeh but the issue I just did reversed the issue that I did to get democracy in the first place, is that going to be a problem?

I have no idea. You might get one that brings it back but it could be a while. I have that with the public protest policy, I'm constantly getting it and losing it again.

Randomly found a second easter egg on one of my puppets, which gave me a card pack containing a legendary. That puppet has always been way more lucky than this nation.
Now Im torn between selling it for quite a bit and keeping it to see if its market value increases so I can keep my 1% badge more easily.
Its still at 1 right now but its sold a couple times for 25+. The current highest bid is 25 and I only have .3 to spare currently. I dont know how value estimates work now so I dont know if its actually going to increase or not, under the old system I think it would already be my most valuable card.

My vote is to keep it, but that's heavily biased by my interest in seeing things other than S2 for the first time in three years.

Jazur, East Blackacre
My family is mostly a fairly recent addition to the US, I have a great grandmother who was from a tribe in California and the other seven great grandparents all immigrated from Europe in the 1930s and 40s (result of the political climate prior to WWII and then not wanting to stay after the war). Three of those are still alive and I have distant relatives in Europe my grandparents talk to. My grandparents are basically my parents so Ive interacted with my great grandparents and all the distant relations quite a bit more than most.
So my family hasnt even been here a century for the most part. Its kind of cool I guess but Im still very much American and wouldnt describe myself as anything else. Ive talked to all the great grandparents about it before but its not the same as actually being born and raised in Europe.

Typica, Araine, Jazur, Duerrenberg, East Blackacre
I always find it interesting how the "typical" American (obviously not all!) view of themselves is as a series of heritage percentages. It doesn't seem to happen in Canada, which has a similar history of colonialism. I've heard some say it's cause the states are all such vastly different cultures that one couldn't possibly just be American, but Russians will still tell those outside their country that they're Russian. It seems to be a pretty uniquely American cultural thing and it's pretty fascinating cause it seems like there's a large overlap in the venn diagram of "Americans who say I'm proud to be American" and "Americans who will introduce themselves as any nationality but American when asked" and it's kinda funny.
Typica, Araine, Junitaki-Cho, Portmanteau, Jazur, Southern Skane, East Blackacre
I only ever say something like that if the topic is specifically ethnicity or something. I brought it up since someone else mentioned it. Ive never even left the US so I cant really be British or something, I wasnt raised with British culture.
That being said from what I understand the US has a bunch of cultural differences between regions. So in terms of actual cultural identification Pacific Northwest is probably more accurate than just American, but thats not a nationality.

When your country is bending over backwards and is unable to pass laws unless it's united against something
(example of the US being united:
Revolutionary war
ww1
ww2
cold war)
It's easier to say I'm thai, rather than saying I speak american.
(also we like to distance ourselves from karens, let's be honest)
Jazur, Chong Qing, Artlantis, Neurodiversity
That is a very interesting observation- it does happen a lot. Partly I think it may be because many people have begun to try to distance themselves from the general concept of an 'American' the more we look at our past and current ideals/issues and go, "Huh, maybe America isn't all that great."
I personally discuss my heritage semi-often because I am, apparently, pretty ethnically ambiguous. I'm primarily white, but my dad's side of the family comes from Mexico and Spain- it's a fairly long trip down the family tree to find the last person who was natively born in Mexico, though. However, I have gotten asked if I'm Pilipino, Italian, and my absolute favorite- one of my previous girlfriends, who had seen BOTH of my parents by the way, said I was white/Asian. All of those just because my skin is slightly olive colored

I dont think any country really has a pretty history. Saying youre English instead of American doesnt really help much if youre trying to get away from all the bad stuff. But it wouldnt surprise me if that was a reason people started saying theyre anything but American.
I honestly think its more patriotic to acknowledge your countrys flaws and try to fix them or at least bring awareness to them so they can be fixed eventually, instead of just declaring it to be the most amazing perfect country to ever exist. Trying to improve your country is a better way of showing your love for it in my opinion.
Typica, Araine, Tiralta, Jazur, Tidelia
Possibly! Although from personal anecdotal experience, which I appreciate is somewhat useless, it seems the people who most acknowledge that the USA isn't the best country at everything are the ones more likely to just say they're American to a non-American (or Texan or Floridian or from Ohio or whatever).

Depends, overall, I'd go with bad. There's no room for growth or change. An absolutely perfect thing is a static and dead thing, no? The desire for perfection drives people onward, but what do you do once you have it?

Q: Is it you're or you are
Absolute perfectionism just burns a person out because "perfection" is a myth invented by humans. Consistency and function is an aim much more in alignment with how the universe works, and therefore more attainable.
