I understand the war, the pain, the stress and all. But you don't handle an ancient object like that... You should feel the importance of the thing for all the human people, as an extraordinary artifact... Average extra ignorant USer, moreover a soldier one... Bleah
Waaah, waaah, bad US man touched an object 80 years ago and that makes me sad for some reason. Go get some real problems to be upset about.
I wouldn’t invest too much in arguing against that person. I remember reading their distinct style of insisting on writing “USer” instead of “American” and I assure you, they are too obnoxious and stubborn to be worth the effort.
Eh. The president of the US can offend tens of nations with "shithole countries" remark, and I cannot refuse to indicate people from US with a word that should/could address an entire continent's population? I cannot do it, simple as that
