I had to construct a phrase because prejudice against the US doesn't have a commonly used term. I might resort to the more traditional "xenophobia" or "bigotry" but those seemed a bit too strong. Feel free to nitpick semantics some more, it definitely distracts from your weaker main argument.

My
complaint
is
that
this
thread
in
particular
and
the
community
in
general
vilifies
and
mocks
the
US
disproportionately,
even
after
adjusting
for
the
"friendly
banter"
between
other
nations.
I
personally
see
admins
complicit
in
this
for
doing
nothing
discourage
it
(
despite
being
sure
to
distance
themselves
from
it,
indicating
that
they
know
it
is
distasteful)
.
This
double-speak
of
"it's
not
bad,
but
I
definitely
don't
participate"
only
strengthens
my
argument
that
you
know
it's
wrong
and
you
do
nothing,
@Anarchid
(
et
al,
I
don't
mean
to
single
you
out
by
any
means)

Personally, I like talking to my European friends while doing something I enjoy. I would never ever want to make them feel like I judge them based on their nationality. The fact that I get to talk to people from all over the world is my favorite part of playing ZK.

I'm over it myself, so you can all enjoy your trendy anti-American circlejerk. The most important part of building a community is to pick a group and ostracize them until they no longer feel welcome, then pick another group and repeat.

I guess what I'm really trying to say is "why can't we just be fucking nice to each other?"
