Ok. Here are my top 4 toxic traits that I think Armenians have that MUST DIE OUT: don’t @ me unless you’re using logic. In no particular order:

1. Normalising domestic violence and emotional abuse in the household (especially towards women)
2. Violence & discrimination against homosexuals. ( you don’t have to regard their sexuality as normal but there is no need to be an asshole towards them. They are still our Armenians)
3. Exclusively shaming women for being “tun mnatsatz” while the sons live at their parents home till 40.

4. Harmful political tribalism “if you’re not with us you’re against us”
Bonus: creating unnecessary ingroup divisions like “parskahays, syriahays or haystancis are fake Armenians or not Armenian enough”

Srsly.
