What are some assumptions/stereotypes about your country or home state?

Everyone is fat in America and we only eat hot dogs and hamburgers. Which this is not true, yes America is one of if not the most obese country in the world but not everyone is huge like some people from other places think. People always also assume that I am super rich because I live in Connecticut. Another lie 😂

and every time I hear how hard working Mexicans are... the laziest AF Mexican people I know come to my mind... lmao

Everyone thinks Americans are idiots based on the internet, without realizing that their own country is filled with just as many stupid people, if not dumber. The worst ones are the Europeans; the people who let Muslim terrorists rape and murder their women and children because they're too afraid of being called "racist." That's even dumber than the BLM crap that does on in the US.

Country: we’re all fat, we own 25 guns, and we’re stupid
State: I don’t really know any stereotypes about Rhode Island. Probably because everyone forgets that this state exists lol

That California is crazy liberal. Yes, the Democratic Party dominates the politics but they often go beyond what most people want. The GOP just feeds their dominance by nominating Trump-y nutjobs.

For some reason people think we're Southern. Virginia isn't really that Southern.

[Lucy68]

Dumb question but there's a debate about that for West Virginia also. Would they be considered southern

[Jamie05rhs]

@Lucy68 Not a dumb question at all! That is a HUGE debatable. In my opinion, I honestly think West Virginia has their own thing. They're like the Afghanistan of America. I don't think you can put them into any other category. They are very unique.

[Lucy68]

Thank you ☺️ and yeah you're probably right

[Jamie05rhs]

You're welcome!

Virginia is said to be Southern because it was part of the South during Civil War.

[Jamie05rhs]

@Cubus, yeah, the Civil War which was over 150 years ago.

Can't people give it a rest already? 🙄
