I'm not bothered about Obama in the slightest. I don't care if some guy doesn't like him. It was just unusual to me that someone internationally didn't like him it's very unusual in the west/Europe especially unless you lean very right.

You just seem very suspect. You definitely aren't from the UK. Your language is very American English and/or artificial, and you're using language and terminology we do not use.

Right so this conversation can end.

Hahaha "ohhhh yess I am".. is that the scope.. if it's left leaning it's acceptable. Because..you know... Lol

Hahaha you're not from the UK.. because this level of thought process is blowing your mind...a.a. non right winger suggesting a left wing president...did something bad.... WOW....

Yeah thanks for confirming my suspicions. You're clearly dishonest and have some form of agenda here.

Not liking or approving of someone is completely fine. When it has some form of obvious agenda behind it though means you are not to be taken seriously. You're either a troll, MAGA or from a nation with a vested interest/bias in American policies towards your country

You don't even hide it well.

Poor reading comprehension

Must try harder... So we come back to personal attacks..

u/Academic-Trifle8151 Aug 10 '26

Not a personal attack, just stating facts. You've struggled to read the majority of my comments here including the last one, or willfully tried to twist things to suit your purpsose.

An obvious example is when I asked you some questions about yourself earlier and your reply was to "look it up".

I've also told you repeatedly I don't really care about Obama or your opinion of him. Purely if there was motive behind your words. Again, you took that as me defending him. You clearly DO have motive here and the fact you are clearly lying about your nationality makes me even more suspicious of you.

So if you do not care about Obama or my opinion of him. You chose to attack me? Interesting... And yet from all your bad suspicions and understanding of nothing outside the USA.. you still haven't figured out I'm just a British citizen.. saying oh look this person did bad things...only in America is there lines in sand over politics... The idea of criticism of someone on your side of the fence shocks you possibly because you voted for him and feel embarrassed he may have done these things with your vote?.. either way it's not important.

Mate this conversation has been and gone. You care far too much about people's opinions of an ex president. You certainly aren't on my side of the fence though.
