I totally agree, but I find it a tedious point.

If I say America is evil, or America is racist and genocidal from it's inception, people don't rush to say "Well the American government is bad, and racists are bad, and voters who keep upholding white supremacy are bad, and America's racist laws are bad, and the racist features in America's founding documents are bad, and America is build on stolen land, and American imperialism is bad, and America's long bloody history is bad, BUT let's be clear that Americans are good. Also, many of Americas enemies are also bad."
