why do we associate being an american as a white thing

not saying its all but i have no idea how prevalant it is but i see it all the time in social media whenever a latino says hes proud to be american then there are memes of an indegenous man with blond hair or a person with dark skin in front of a mirror and the mirror reflects a white person and claim they want to be white and its bothering me with this community so much. being american is always white but never the asian latino indian arabs ect. also stop associating it with politics. if this is going to bother you and gets downvoted then i will see that its very prevalent. i get it, the memes is kinda funny im not gonna lie but still and its always this same guy in the meme lol

is it just me but did tom delonge had a small emo phase around the end of blink 182 during the early 2000s?

i know they are not emo but im talking about his hair. i just find it fascinated about the product of its time when music was shifting and styles too. could that be a sign of his music interest during this time that caused the bands break up? i know im reaching but its a sign. he probably was the reason their last album sounded "emo" as they say and him making box car racer which sounded less punk

i was watching beyond scared and im so grateful for being free and enjoy everyday things

i feel for the life prisoners but then you hear the awful things they did to be in that position. an event in their life that was so instant and spontanious actions that is life changing. i cannot imagine how that would be great for mental health. im also a gamer and movie lover. imagine not being able to get to watch or play any new video games or movies thats upcoming. also being able to freely enjoy my familys presence at my own time. is what im greatful for. i could go on and on. traveling, eat good food, hobbies etc.
