Those of us who live in the civilised world absolutely understand
The question is how far you Americans will allow things to go?
You’re already fucked, but your opiates of shitty TV, pissy beer, fast food and the satisfaction that you seem to enjoy when you see people who are really suffering seem to placate you
You don’t care about the vulnerable, the marginilanised, the suffering because you think you’re somehow going to dodge it, until it happens to you
Americans gauge their happiness by the misery of others

My god, update your stereotypes. There are SOOO many things to shit in the US for but these make you look uncultured.
The US makes some of the best TV in the world. And unless you’ve got state run media, your country is full of the same trash TV.
I see you’re ignorant to the local breweries all across the country. Do you shit on dutch beer because of Heineken, too?
The fast food thing has some merit because yeah, it’s trash. But American cuisine is as varied as all of Europe. Calling out fast food feels like a nitpick. You’ve got lazy fast food slobs in your country, too.
All of which really makes the last part seem undeservedly arrogant
I’ve had some amazing experiences there, but I’m talking about the US masses, not the intelligent and worldly individuals
The average yank is a fucking idiot
Bright people are always going to be bright. The value of an education system is to help the vast majority of people who are just average
The US “education” system fails everyone, but those who have natural gifts are able to get somewhere
Don’t even get me started on the idea that unless something has a dollar figure attached, it is of no value
The superficial consumerism is bizarre and grotesque, particularly when there’s so much wealth concentrated in one country, yet people die from treatable diseases and starve in the streets.
I mostly watch British shows. But you’re kind of right about the last part, the last non-english show I watched was the second season of Kongen Befaler and I feel like that doesn’t count.
So, does the US not make some of the best TV shows? Or are you only aware of the sitcoms and reality shows?
Sorry but you clearly don’t understand because you make the same tired arguments that work for the rest of the world where things aren’t a nightmare but make no sense in the context of how life in the US specifically works, both due to absolutely zero social safety nets whatsoever and the fact that we can’t all just hop on a train and be at the capital in a few hours for the equivalent of €20 or whatever
Then you’ve gotten so used to the meme of being the super smart enlightened non American educating the stupid fat lazy hamburgers that you ignore the countless times it is explained to you because no actually you are the smart one who knows everything better than us so clearly we are just wrong and stupid because you are correct and enlightened
Or, maybe instead of insulting Europeans because no way they understand your special society, understand that your arguments are simply excuses to not revolt. Your zero safety net is reason enough to revolt. A pedo starting wars in your name is the follow-up.
You don’t have to drive to DC to do something useful.
The European mind cannot comprehend this

I spend a lot of time in the US
I’m over there a few times every year

Americunt exceptionalism in action.
Have you ever watched non-American tv? I really doubt you have ever watched anything that was not produced in the English language.

How did the Protests during the Vietnam War happened? It is possible, but if you dont want to, you dont want to.
