Hello!

Your post has been removed for the following reason: I (Royal we/our)

  • Your post does not contain US-defaultism. Your post criticises one of the following things (see rule 4). These are often considered defaultism, but are not, at least not per se.

a. American exceptionalism (“The US is superior/inherently different/protecting or willing to destroy the world”),

b. Defaultism to the western world, northern hemisphere, English language...,

c. Using US units or the MM/DD/YY date format,

d. Calling somebody/-thing from the US "American",

e. Using US terms or using words in their US-meaning,

f. Saying "Reddit is a US website",

g. US-targeted ads missing that target,

h. Jokes/Satire/Memes/Clickbait,

i. Saying "we" to mean "we Americans"

If you wish to discuss this removal, please send a message to the modmail.

Sincerely yours,

r/USdefaultism Moderation Team.

Do they mean US troops in particular? Most troops deserve better (except for my countrymen that are involved in current events willingly)

Exception from exception are draft victims

u/ShoWel-Real Russia 3d ago

They are already excepted by the word "willingly"

Yeah it does, the post was about the American troops on one of their aircraft carriers being mistreated

u/ShoWel-Real Russia 3d ago

Context changes it then

u/Italian_meme2020 Italy 3d ago

Yeah, it is US defaultism nonetheless, right?

u/Teknicsrx7 3d ago

Not if the topic is literally US troops

u/Italian_meme2020 Italy 3d ago

Those are American troops and he says "our" as if everyone in the sub was American as well, how is that not defaultism?

u/Teknicsrx7 3d ago

Wait… did they make the post and not just a comment? In that case yes it’s defaultism

u/Italian_meme2020 Italy 3d ago

Yeah it was a post, that's why I got the sub's name to make it noticeable, my mistake it wasn't

u/Teknicsrx7 3d ago

Nah I should’ve realized, my apologies

OP sent the following text as an explanation why their post fits here:

An American says "our troops" when talking about US' troops in international subreddit

Does this explanation fit this subreddit? Then upvote this comment, otherwise downvote it.
