We totally know Europe has been a shit hole for 1000s of years. Then along comes America with their "We're the best, we're number 1" and we're like "Nah, you're just another shit hole". We don't care about America, it's an ocean away, but you're obnoxiously loud.
Because your shit is current, ours has been cleaned out. If you can't find something still valid today you kind of loose the whole argument. Critics are so you can work and improve yourself not stagnate and live in the past.
It's called banter. Just as you're doing here. Personally though? I would sooner align myself with the US than the rest of Europe.. At least whilst you had Trump in power, not this brain-dead twat you have running things now!
They are jealous of us. Many think they are cultural sophisticates and we are sweating rednecks (I kind of am). But look who saved their asses, then nursemaided them and rebuilt them after WW2 I think we hurt their feelings.

As an European myself i am aware of the terrible things that happened in the past on both continents. I don't bring these up simply because i naturally obtained these particular social manners to not do it. It's not nice to bring it up and it yields nothing but more hostility. Ask me how i know if you will.
Today we are much better off than the past and i focus on living now than in the past. Some others however... their choice.
it's easier to see other's junk than one's own. The media. But to be fair, we got a lot of issues and aren't so great at this point. corrupted by $ and removal of values.
Honestly. Most of Europe don't care about America. It's an irrelevant nation and largely a joke now. Seriously. If any European mocked America, probably an American asked for it after bragging about how "great" America is.
If someone who got dirt on their past is not allowed to criticize, the world would be silent. People criticize because they think they have it better, or wanted something better, or expects something better.
Because it's easy to shit talk a country that has egg on their face or has a bad event take place. All major countries do it and take it in return, just ignore them.
Who cares! I don't give Europe a second thought but they're obsessed with this country. Kind of like the nerdy chick is obsessed with the homecoming queen.
Glorifying countries is such a tribal and primitive concept. I elevate ideals that will lead to a better tomorrow, not land that is going to change hands every few hundred years or so.

One big things comes to mind: getting involved in wars just because you can make a lot of money and still continue doing it to this day.. And it's just one thing. Could list way more that is easy to see for everyone. Like arrogance that your post emits too lol.
I just love the exchanges: "uncultered Swine"! I have to remember that, to use at some future date. Thanks for the 'leg up' on insults, ANON. That is a memorable one.
Uncultured Swine? I can see I'm going to have fun here. First since you're anonymous it's really hard to take anything you say seriously. How exactly am I uncultured? And since I have fans and friends all over the globe how am I the reason people can't stand Americans? I don't know what nation you live in, but hopefully you're as proud of your nation as I am. I firmly believe if you're not you need to move to a nation you can be proud of. America is not perfect, but right now the only reason Europe isn't part of Russia is America, the only reason Israel hasn't been over ran by it's enemies is America. It's the same with South Korea, Japan and Taiwan. The United States basically finances the UN. So it's easy to say you hate America and the uncultured swine like me but most of the free world has that freedom because of the United States. So use your name, use your photo and let us know who you are, I'd be able to take you more seriously then. I will add that I doubt very seriously if you'd tell me to shut the fuck up if we were face to face. I dislike people who hide behind keyboards as so many here seem to do.
@pattij, oh, I didn’t realize you hacked the person’s account that posted this undereducated piece of word vomit. I would gladly tell you to STFU to your face. Do you know why? Because all I would have to do is leisurely jog away from you, and you wouldn’t be able to catch up to me. Settle down on your disgusting American fast food, love. Your body will thank you later. Also, it’s cute seeing you, a customer service representative at the local Walmart in a small inbred town who is still aspiring to be a women’s wrestler back in the 80s, trying to defend her fellow uncultured undereducated Americans. Your efforts are admirable, but alas, further my point.
(I know you won’t understand that hard-to-read sentence because you read at a third-grade level. Don’t worry. Just keep being simple-minded like your counterparts.)
@bean2k21 wow, good job copying what I wrote! You will certainly pass the first grade! Also, anyone that uses Wikipedia as a source of reference is instantly a clown that won’t be taken seriously.
I love people who use generalizations to classify people they don't know. And like others it's so easy to hide behind your keyboard. So since you'll never be face to face with me it's all too easy to talk trash. And I have to say if you think your insults are creative I'm sorry, but you don't do insults well at all. But you clearly live in your own little world and anytime you put a sentence together you probably give yourself a gold star. Perhaps your mommy told you "that was good darling, you really told her, now have some milk and cookies". And if your idea of courage is to say something to a person than run away you really don't know much about courage. So why don't you say where you're from and what exactly makes you so superior to Americans. I really want to know, I need a hero in my life and I'm certain someone like you would be someone I could try to emulate and learn from. Please will you be my life coach and my idol for life?
ANON, it is a shame and embarrassing to read that kind of language leveled at someone you know nothing about, have never met, and the only thing you know is they posted something you took exception to. I for one, hold an MBA, from a prestigious university, play violin and piano and appreciate all of the 'culture' that you seem to denigrate with that kind of insulting dialogue. I only made the comment about your insult, not because I find it helpful to dialogue, I have just not read that kind of derogatory language leveled at someone you disagree with.
@pattij It is sad for me to read her ugly comments toward you, for no other reason than that is her only way to communicate with others that she disagrees with. My apologies to you.
@Bricealan, embarrassing for you, but not for me. I quite enjoy insulting people that think they know things but fail miserably. As for what a 70-year-old man thinks? I could quite literally care less. Obviously, what I said about your dear friend phattij rang true since she deleted her ridiculous photos. As for your master's degree and “culture,”… Big deal. Does it make you feel better about yourself saying it?
Grow some balls, you pathetic sensitive Americans. The mass majority of you are quite the naive idiots. Why do you think your country has the most mass shootings in the entire world? Because you’re IDIOTS. Your poor children need to be fostered in other countries for their safety and well-being. So very tragic it is.
And if you keep responding, I know I’m hitting some chords that ring true, which pleases me. So thank you.
It's because for some reason many people that live in the Union Of European Socialist Republics love grotesquely bloated government and unnecessarily high taxes.

America's the current dominant power and doesn't tend to play war games without something being in it for itself. Open markets, strategic vision, oil, whatever.

Update: the wide area network we now call internet was initially created by Americans but the world wide Web was invented by a European.

Who cares. I just wish Europeans would fundamentally realize that we are different people than they are. We fought a revolution to do our own thing.
Go bitch at the Chinese for more than doubling executions in 2022.
we aren't fundamentally different, they're just going through a phase. ptsd from ww2. they'll be back to colonizing africa in 30 years
@007kingifrit Someone needs to colonize Africa again and make use of the place.
They are jealous of us. Many think they are cultural sophisticates and we are sweating rednecks (I kind of am). But look who saved their asses, then nursemaided them and rebuilt them after WW2 I think we hurt their feelings.

Probably because Europe has made efforts to correct for their dark past whereas the US seems to be on the path of trying to cover theirs up.
Honestly it’s our own stupid ass libtard mass media that embarrasses us worldwide along with Hollywood, musicians, etc.
that's true, foreigners don't know how to watch American news
Oh my God, you uncultured swine. People like you are the reason other countries can't stand Americans. STFU.
Waaaaaahhhh!!!
Yeah because I go around saying stuff like "Oh my God, you uncultured swine. People like you are the reason other countries can't stand you. STFU."

@bricealan Let me know when you need clever insults. I’m here for it.

Anon... how about this "fuck off".
@KrakenAttackin, that's hilarious. SAVE YOUR CHILDREN! Poor innocent children are victims of stupid Americans.
Well, at this point "uncultured swine" is at the apex of my insult list, but if you can top that, I would like to evaluate it for future insulting.
It's because for some reason many people that live in the Union Of European Socialist Republics love grotesquely bloated government and unnecessarily high taxes.
America's the current dominant power and doesn't tend to play war games without something being in it for itself. Open markets, strategic vision, oil, whatever.

Yes, we have a dark past. America has a dark present. If we seem critical it's because we want you to do better.
Bravo <3
You know its primarily other Americans pushing the white guilt narrative on Americans.
But seriously Americans are enough fat already as it is. You can stop with the fat positivity now.
