Don't look now, but you're no Ben Franklin.

He also served our nation. You're just a loser in Australia that was born on the luckiest place to be born and fucked that up.

He was an admirable and notable ambassador constrained by his fame from convincing everyday people in France and England as to the legitimacy of America's constitutional republic.

But I've lived in far more places and talked to exponentially more people in my fame-less capacity.

Crowds showed up and bought souvenirs (even Ben Franklin glazed bed pans) because they were already convinced.

I however just interact with thousands of everyday people in a respectful manner and they're like "wow, he's the only actual American I've ever met and I can't hate him".

So as you can see, without a captured audience, I fare better than Ben.

That's a good point. I've found that a lot of Aussies have a massive inferiority complex regarding we superior and exceptional Americans, er, I mean "Septics." LOL

Inferiority.... Superiority... it phases in and out of most conversations. The trick is to know the culture you're living in and being able to bring receipts, and being humble enough to accept criticism of the culture your mind remains in.

If one can be brutally honest to themself and to others, most conversations end amicably and with no butthurt.

That's diplomacy.

So cogent.

You are saying you're better than Ben Franklin at diplomacy...wtf is wrong with you?


No... just that I'm more persuasive in a non famous role or role of notoriety that had naturally English hating Parisians go Justin Bieber Fandom for a coonskin cap and fur coat wearing chubby gramps with gout as he went on tour for continental army funds.

Don't get me wrong... old Ben was a troll master....but he did it when he thought the ball was in his court.

I do it without diplomatic immunity and no guarantee that at the pub, work, or in random interactions I won't be assaulted or killed...

Plus Old Ben had the press on his side and all I've ever got is America BAD or Orange Man Bad.

I still do it.... although intelligently and in a very earnest nature.

I can't begin to tell you the number of North/Central African, and Middle/East Asian peoples I work with or have worked with and had a laugh with. I want to know their lives and they want to know mine.

Isn't that grassroots diplomacy?

Whereas you're a selective racist brown person that insists your people were always in the US, are part of the US, but you hate the US.

That's burning grass fire diplomacy. It's why Flea is loved by all forums and you're considered a piece of shit.

TL;DR. is a diplomatic way of blowing your stupid ass off.

You don't want to explain why your socialistic rhetoric disavows our nation's bootstrap and Yankee ingenuity infused humble and moral beginnings?
That was quite a sentence. It even makes sense and I like the way you broke character for a moment to deliver it like an unexpected quick jab from the right when all the previous punches were to the chin.
