Classic Americans, making up our own rules and sucking at following the rest of the world lol

True but it looks like the IPSC is international as well, and the most awards are held by a French man, so US kinda sucks a little at that too.

IPSC is common around the world.

This isn't about the facts. We're on Lemmy. It's about shitting on America, regardless if it makes any sense to.

To be fair, America deserves it.

When it makes sense, yes. When it doesn't make sense, no.

Imagine downvoting this, lmao

You must be new here. I defended the US. That's sure to get a few downvotes. Lol

[–] damnedfurry@lemmy.world 2 points 3 months ago

US or not, the sentiment of "criticize X when it makes sense, don't when it doesn't" getting downvoted is hilarious to me.

We're the best in our own country!
