    this is always a good joke but like many jokes needs nuance! the US actually has thousands of very rich cultures—most of them are just too non-white/POC/queer/non-christofascist to “count”

    (“count” is in quotes because of course they count to everyone who isn’t a white nationalist)

      No it doesn’t. It’s just a joke. You want to add nuance because youre taking it personally. Everyone understands the hyperbole …

      Imagine if every racial joke in a comedy skit added an “akshuallly” for nuance; it’s no different for the US.
