    Okay, but you do realize that comeback makes you look bad right, not us? No matter your reasons or intentions, you are mocking children being murdered. Like in the example below:

    American: lol British people eat spotted dicks.

    A brit: lol American children get shot at school.

    Wow. What a zinger, you really got me with that one, a fool I was to not recognize the comedy of children dying horrifically.

    (To be clear, I didn’t come up with that example randomly. I’ve seen the mocking of spotted dick be met with “lol child murder” more than once)

      They’re mocking us for letting children get murdered. Don’t get all civility politics up in here if you can’t even grasp the concept of the jab.

      Nobody is mocking children for being murdered, that would be disgusting.

      People are mocking the very much unique to the US culture of yes, we know children are being shot in schools, and no, we aren’t going to do anything about it, you crazy freedom-hating commie!

      It’s a macabre mocking of your crazy gun culture and politics. Not of your children. I thought that was pretty obvious.

      Seems like the comeback is working since it gets Yanks flustered and writing paragraphs of text as a reply lol
