If I were into that, I could also be offended by all the idiots crying over the supposed oppression of "Trump's America" since my mother's side grandfather and his family had to leave Spain during Franco's regime when it was a real posibility to be thrown into a work camp for saying anything out of line. That was actual state-backed oppression. He and his father went respectively to Argentina and to USA to work and earn money to pay for their family's trek to America before some political officer had them jailed for some slight or executed for "treason". That'd put me in the same boat as the guys that ask for special treatment because their parents were abducted by the army in the 70s dictatorship though, so I don't.

@nerthos I always laugh about supposed oppression in America because my family left China specifically to escape oppression. Plus if being a majority race was so important that white privilege is a thing, they would've stayed

@gameragodzilla Being jailed for attacking someone you don't like isn't oppression. Having a family be thrown in jail for hiding their son who didn't want to go fight a civil war is.

@nerthos Pretty much. And besides, if you can openly protest without getting tanks on your ass, that's freedom
