Some places suck.
Some places suck, by design.
Reducing criticism of systemic problems to "just because you disagree" is dishonest... and indicative.
"You censored me for my opinion"
"What opinion was it?"

Buddy your country has killed tens if not over a hundred million people in the conquest of war for hegemonic power and resource control across the globe. Someone on the internet hurt your feelings when making a joke. Obviously those two things are the same. 🙄
