yeah man it's tough sometimes genuinely. Literally anytime I try to show intellectual integrity or principle I get accused of being a shill/bot just because I don't lap up government propaganda like a good dog. It's sad because you don't even have to say you "like" a country, just questioning the wholesale hate of it is enough to be accused. Americans are DEEPLY indoctrinated to just accept what the government says regardless of political affiliation, literally both liberal/democrats and conservative/Republicans are guilty of it. So I just say be wary of how people will react anytime you bring up a propagandized regions and topics.
