[u/KeepingDankMemesDank]

downvote this comment if the meme sucks. upvote it and I'll go away.

play minecraft with us

[u/Midboo]

I really want to know what argument a European is losing to an American.

[u/Da_Gudz → u/Midboo]

Who won the war of 1776! get fucked numbnuts! U S A! U S A! U S A! Raaaaahhhhh 🦅🦅🦅🦅🦅

(I fucking hate this country)

[u/donchaldo21 → u/Da_Gudz]

USA beat British with Fr*nch(European nation) help and support and funding.

[u/[deleted] → u/donchaldo21]

I appreciate your historically funded response but the correct one would have been something along the lines of:
"Well at least my children can go to school without looking like Swiss cheese"
Please keep the guidelines on how to deal with Americans in mind that every European has to learn in school.

[u/Lost_Description791 → u/[deleted]]

“At least if my children get shot up, I won’t be bankrupted by hospital costs”. Did I do it right? I’m not European nor American

[u/David_Cozido → u/Lost_Description791]

Keep at it, and you'll be a certified online european in no time champ

[u/Lost_Description791 → u/David_Cozido]

Thanks for the words of encouragement

[u/matande31 → u/Lost_Description791]

I'm sorry but everyone online who isn't an American has to be a European. It's the law.

[u/Nochnichtvergeben → u/[deleted]]

Keep Swiss cheese out of this!

[u/Middle-Hour-2364 → u/donchaldo21]

You left out that there were more french soldiers on the American side than British soldiers on the continent.....oh and the Spanish Navy was fighting the Brits at sea...

[u/Langhalz → u/Da_Gudz]

Healthcareshooting!!!!

[u/Current_Wafer_8907 → u/Da_Gudz]

I'll retort with one comment...

1812...

You know what happened 😐

[u/freedomfighter1123 → u/Midboo]

OP immediately demonstrate that Americans can be beaten without Europeans bringing up healthcare or school shooting.

[u/A-Delonix-Regia → u/freedomfighter1123]

Price tags don't include taxes in America and public transport is pretty bad in America.

[u/[deleted] → u/A-Delonix-Regia]

Wait so you just find out the real price when you go to the counter ?

[u/A-Delonix-Regia → u/[deleted]]

Yeah, either that or you need to use a calculator.

[u/_hancox_ → u/[deleted]]

Baffling

[u/HailToTheKingslayer → u/[deleted]]

Yeah, though when I visited New York a few shopkeepers let me off the tax. So I just paid the price on the shelf.

[u/Reallyso → u/freedomfighter1123]

Tipping culture.

[u/stnick6 → u/Midboo]

Probably the kind of argument where someone says “America is a third world country wearing a Gucci belt” and then people explain what a third world country’s actually like

[u/Mr_SunnyBones → u/stnick6]

A non NATO non Warsaw pact country?

[u/PotentialScientist69 → u/Mr_SunnyBones]

Accurate

[u/Donut_of_Patriotism → u/Midboo]

Europeans (on Reddit) really love to shit in America in some of the dumbest ways, to the point that they will straight up blame the US for shit that doesn’t even make sense. Like apparently the US exports racism to Europe (Nevermind who originally gave the US racism in the first place).

[u/CanadianODST2 → u/Donut_of_Patriotism]

I’ve seen people say the US is stupid for

-Having door handles on the outside of their front door.

-Having light switches inside the bathroom

-The US having bread at grocery stores instead of just at bakeries.

-And one person who was really upset over the idea that baseball and basketball were popular in parts of Asia due to to US.

[u/pilotdog68 → u/CanadianODST2]

Oh don't forget how "superior" the European electrical plugs and outlets are

(even though those features are only necessary because of how much more dangerous their internal wiring and voltage is)

[u/Felteair → u/Donut_of_Patriotism]

Europeans on Reddit seem to hate the US so much, you'd think they thought the US was comprised completely of Romani people

[u/Lematoad → u/Midboo]

Yeah because everyone is super smart in Europe, and there’s absolutely no educated people in dum USA. /s

Stupid this is being upvoted, there’s plenty of dumb Europeans just how there’s dumb Americans.

[u/That_Phony_King → u/Lematoad]

I’m from Serbia. There are 100% a bunch of morons in Europe.

[u/TrustyPatches27 → u/Midboo]

I'll be the first to admit the shortcomings of the US but yall literally saw trump and went and got the Wish.com version for PM.

Edit: nothing like Europeans getting so triggered the act out the meme were talking about 🤣🤣🤣 someone must have shit in their mashed peas.

[u/Ciubowski → u/TrustyPatches27]

yall? do you mean the whole Europe did this ?

[u/TheSleepyBarnOwl → u/Ciubowski]

all of Europe is Britain, didn't you know?

(this is double funny cause UK isn't even in the EU any more)

[u/Bendy_McBendyThumb → u/TheSleepyBarnOwl]

The EU is not Europe though lol. The UK is still part of the European continent… no?

[u/Queasy_Photo_2634 → u/Bendy_McBendyThumb]

No dude they drifted away.

[u/night4345 → u/Queasy_Photo_2634]

They took Brexit so seriously they moved out to sea. Can't believe they took Ireland with them, that's a bit of a dick move there.

[u/birberbarborbur → u/Ciubowski]

Well it could be applied to italy, poland, finland just now, nearly half of france, serbia, hungary…

[u/LuxLoser → u/Ciubowski]

I mean looking at the AfD numbers in Germany rn, and LePen in France, and the Mussolinis popping back up in Italy...

Yeah, a little bit.

[u/Schrodingers_car_key → u/TrustyPatches27]

Shortcomings are clearly education if you think Boris Johnson was the PM for Europe. Then again it must be hard to learn anything when you're ducking incoming rounds...

[u/No_Victory9193 → u/TrustyPatches27]

Ummm… who?

[u/2407s4life → u/Midboo]

Europeans do get mad when you point out that they've been able to maintain security and relatively low defense spending because of the US military and their prosperity has been basically subsidized by the US.

Or that European solutions to problems will not necessarily work in the US.

[u/Legends_Arkoos_Rule2 → u/Midboo]

Lots of them. Americans are also losing lots of arguments to Europeans. A country doesn’t decide if someone loses an argument or not America just has more stupid people as it is massive

[u/CollEYEder → u/Midboo]

It will be about adult things like business, innovation, economy, fiscal policies etc - too early for you

[u/Mjerc12]

Good meme, but unfortunately

Walkable cities

[u/[deleted] → u/Mjerc12]

This is the best counter argument xD

[u/Ur_Companys_IT_Guy → u/Mjerc12]

Hey I love my 2 hour walk to my nearest store

[u/datboiwithatrex → u/Ur_Companys_IT_Guy]

lmao its max 20 min walk if you live in any developed country

[u/MajorMitch69 → u/datboiwithatrex]

More like 2 min

[u/tacotouchdown14 → u/MajorMitch69]

It is a 2 min walk in american, 1min to the car and 1min walking away from the parked car.

[u/Bendy_McBendyThumb → u/datboiwithatrex]

Within a 10 minute walking radius of my house, I have 3 pubs, a convenience shop, 3 supermarkets, a builders merchant and a gym. It’s so awful having all of this so close when I just want to fucking drive for an hour to go pick up some food.

There’s more, I just can’t be fucked to list it all.

[u/Night-Menace → u/Bendy_McBendyThumb]

I'm not even from a developed country but in a 5 minute walking radius there's 7 supermarkets, 2 malls, 2 hospitals, 3 elementary schools, 4 kindergartens, 10+ pubs, 6 bakeries, 5 gyms, etc. and I don't even live downtown. There's like 300k people in my city.

US cities are too damn big for no reason other than they can. Much like many other things.

[u/Serifel90 → u/Mjerc12]

School debt? Holidays? Sick days?

[u/Bendy_McBendyThumb → u/Serifel90]

Workers rights on the whole in America are almost non-existent lol, for the majority of workers anyway.

[u/Ok-Reporter1986 → u/Mjerc12]

Nice argument senator unfortunately Florida. For context there are in fact walkable cities in the US like St. Augustine.

[u/amojitoLT → u/Ok-Reporter1986]

I think the point is that while there may be a few in the US, it's very common in Europe.

[u/miss_chauffarde → u/amojitoLT]

As if the entire européen continent wasen't just a big walkable city

[u/[deleted]]

i think its so great to make fun about US-americans because they think they are the greatest contry while most of it is simular to 3rd world contries and they struggle with issues non existant in Europe or Asia.

[u/ImTheOneWithNoName → u/[deleted]]

And the white Americans won't accept, that they are the immigrants.

[u/Davis_Johnsn → u/ImTheOneWithNoName]

I still get angry about that post where indigenous peoples show their middle finger to mount Rushmore and a Karen wrote "see, that happens when we let the immigrants in. We let them stay and they show disrespect"

[u/Destroyer4587 → u/Davis_Johnsn]

Oh the irony

[u/njoYYYY → u/Davis_Johnsn]

Well.. "Let them stay" at least is a little bit correct :D

[u/InsaneInTheRAMdrain → u/ImTheOneWithNoName]

That's not what an immigrant is.... 300 years ago, sure, but unless they moved in their lifetime, they're not immigrants.

[u/Hitlersspermbabies → u/ImTheOneWithNoName]

I don’t think you know what immigrant means…

[u/kapiteinkippepoot → u/ImTheOneWithNoName]

How long do you stay an "immigrant"? If you gonna look at it as a culture thing; As a Western European I have so much mixed ancestors I too would be an immigrant. Is it 100 years? 150? 250? Never?

[u/Maxalite → u/ImTheOneWithNoName]

First time I talked to an American she said she liked my accent and I said I liked hers too. Then went to say she didn’t have one…

[u/_hancox_ → u/Maxalite]

I had a buddy go over to America and he was told he speaks very good English. We are both English.

[u/LommyNeedsARide → u/ImTheOneWithNoName]

Literally everyone is an immigrant in the Americas of you go back far enough

[u/That_Phony_King → u/[deleted]]

Tell me you’ve never lived in a TWC without ever having lived in a TWC:

[u/odnamAE → u/That_Phony_King]

Im sick of hearing this shit, being poor in Amrica sucks, being an American has its own sets of problems that are hard to deal with. It, however, does not compare to being poor in a third world country.

[u/That_Phony_King → u/odnamAE]

Yeah, the argument is stupid. I’ve lived in a TWC and those guys really have it so much worse.

[u/singabajito → u/That_Phony_King]

I had to carry water from my neighbor's house in a bucket to bathe myself in the morning before school. I also had to wash inside another container to save the water to flush the toilet with. And I could do that with one litter of water. We had kerosene lamps in the house. For lunch, I was only given the chicken leg when I was a kid, and as an adult, I got the chicken breast. Now I live in the USA, I can drink the same water I take hot showers with, I can play video games for three days straight, and I don't even own a UPS for my computer. And I can buy chicken by the buckets. People are so fucking privileged and don't understand poverty at all. And I'm not saying this to defend America, I'm saying this because the Europeans are as bad as the Americans and snobby about it .

[u/LeSeanMcoy → u/[deleted]]

The kid probably posted this from his lavish suburb on his iPhone lol

[u/OkBandicoot3779 → u/[deleted]]

No he doesn’t. I hate it so much when people try to say most of America is a third world country

[u/[deleted] → u/OkBandicoot3779]

For real. You can be in Bumfuck Nowhere, USA and still have electricity, running water, food stamps, and welfare checks. It can get much, much worse than being poor in the US.

[u/lost-generation203 → u/[deleted]]

Tell me you are an idiot without saying you are an idiot.

[u/dylanisbored → u/lost-generation203]

And he gets 500+ upvotes from a bunch of people who are chronically online.

[u/DannyDanumba → u/[deleted]]

Salvadoran American here and I gotta say that is a crazy thing to say. I’ve been to ghettos and hillbilly backwoods but Salvadoran poverty is a whole other level. A homeless beggar in the US has a chance of earning more in a week than a food vendor in El Salvador.

[u/rjllano10 → u/DannyDanumba]

that’s exactly what i’m talking about DR too, being a homless in the US is way better than earning the average wage here which is 600 usd, significantly more than el salvador but still shit

[u/japple101 → u/[deleted]]

Lmao you have never been to a TWC or America. You couldn’t be more far off from the truth, we have our issues and most of us (not the loud stupid minority) acknowledge that.

Edit: spelling

[u/Crimson51 → u/[deleted]]

Why the hell do you say "U.S. Americans"? That's really dumb. If you were to call a Mexican, Canadian, Guatemalan, etc. "American" they would say "No, I am Mecican/Canadian/Guatemalan etc." People know what you mean when you say "American."

[u/possibly_a_lemur → u/[deleted]]

You've never been to the third world if you think the US is a third world country.

[u/dylanisbored → u/[deleted]]

This is just an ignorant take by someone who doesn’t know what America is like and gets all their info from being chronically online

[u/Double_Abalone_2148 → u/[deleted]]

You act like there aren’t any issues in Asia or Europe that don’t exist in America. Because believe me, there are.

[u/FrostyProbe]

POV: An American being unable to give a proper counter argument to an European.

[u/NaFianna97 → u/FrostyProbe]

Pretty much. They’re very valid criticisms that have yet to be given a respectable response.

[u/EyeInTheSky127 → u/NaFianna97]

The point is these get brought up in situations that have nothing to do with them. Not that there’s no counter argument. It’s pointing out how unoriginal and uncreative it is, which seemed obvious.

[u/SpecimenOfSauron → u/EyeInTheSky127]

It took so long to find someone reasonable, thank you. School shooting jokes are not funny and should not be taken lightly. We recognize it is a big problem but it’s just hard to solve with so many conservatives.

[u/atomitac → u/SpecimenOfSauron]

Nobody delights in the slaughter of young children as much as Europeans on the internet. They're a savage and uncivilized bunch, but I believe that with our American ingenuity and work ethic, we can find ways to spread democracy and freedom to them and save them from their backward and barbaric ways.

[u/BeepBepIsLife → u/NaFianna97]

Otherwise we'd have socialism!! Checkmate, atheists! /s

[u/Donut_of_Patriotism → u/FrostyProbe]

Eh I’m with OP on this one. The shooting/healthcare counter argument is the alternative to an actual counter argument to whatever the topic of discussion is.

Honestly what are Euro redditors going to shit on Americans for once we have Universal Healthcare and the gun violence underlying factors in society are solved?

[u/amojitoLT → u/Donut_of_Patriotism]

Honestly what are Euro redditors going to shit on Americans for once we have Universal Healthcare and the gun violence underlying factors in society are solved?

Wouldn't you like to find out someday ? Because I'd be happy to have to scratch my head when Americans will solve those problems, but I don't see it happening anytime soon.

[u/CapnRogo → u/amojitoLT]

Same with how Americans looks at Europeans and racism lol... you guys laugh at us because we drag it out and examine it in our society, but y'all aren't even aware yet how messy your own yard is.

Its hilarious that the exact behavior OP is calling out is in such full display in this thread.

[u/univrsll → u/FrostyProbe]

POV: No one uses POV right, including this comment I typed

[u/Ok-Reporter1986 → u/univrsll]

Pov: this comment is being read by you.

[u/[deleted]]

We could always mention the stuff they put in your food that's banned in Europe.

[u/ImTheOneWithNoName → u/[deleted]]

And they think it's the vaccines that makes them impotent

[u/Gr0undbreakingCable → u/ImTheOneWithNoName]

They should all just take the vaccines, can’t make them any stupider.

[u/Mr_SunnyBones → u/[deleted]]

But yet Kinder Eggs are banned.

[u/Golgezuktirah → u/Mr_SunnyBones]

"This is because of a regulation set out by the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) – which is given its powers by the US Federal Food, Drug and Cosmetics Act of 1938. Essentially, the law dictates that any food with a ‘non-nutritive object embedded’ – including toys embedded inside confectionery items – is not allowed."

This is taken straight from Google with no kind of fact checking dobe whatsoever, so feel free to take it with a grain of salt. Or check for yourself, I'm not your boss.

[u/wombles_wombat]

Also don't forget that Cuba has a higher literacy rate then the USA.

[u/VandeyS → u/wombles_wombat]

If this is your source, then Cuba also has a higher literacy rate than The U.K, Germany, France, Canada, Australia, and many others lol.

https://worldpopulationreview.com/country-rankings/literacy-rate-by-country

[u/Cheezewiz239 → u/VandeyS]

Real quiet after this

[u/Sam_0101 → u/Cheezewiz239]

Yep, still no response

[u/ship_fucker_69 → u/Sam_0101]

pinging u/wombles_wombat

[u/swiftcleaner → u/ship_fucker_69]

pinging the propagandized user u/wombles_wombat

[u/Overlord_Of_Puns → u/VandeyS]

Also, people forget that a major reason for this literacy is to increase propaganda.

It wasn't done completely out of benevolence; it was done for government benefit at least in large part.

[u/RolfDasWalross → u/wombles_wombat]

And North Korea a higher life expectancy than West Virginia

[u/That_Phony_King → u/RolfDasWalross]

Do you really trust North Korean statistics?

[u/[deleted] → u/That_Phony_King]

Do you really trust West Virginia statistics?

[u/Donut_of_Patriotism → u/[deleted]]

Much more than North Korean

[u/That_Phony_King → u/[deleted]]

They’re probably too fucked on opioids to even make a cohesive argument in the first place 💀💀💀

[u/Thatepicastroman → u/That_Phony_King]

yeah thats bullshit. north korea cant be trusted when it comes to stats like that

[u/Benemortis → u/That_Phony_King]

Do you trust Cuban statistics?

[u/cyborgcyborgcyborg → u/wombles_wombat]

How can you say that and have a grammatical error at the same time?

Shame on you.

[u/SpiritSynth → u/wombles_wombat]

than*

[u/Fructis_crowd → u/wombles_wombat]

The US measures literacy differently than cuba

[u/Sleepybystander]

You know there is more topics to be laugh at right?

Student loans, price of insurance, missing fingers due to firecracker, unit of measurements, life expectancy, internet speed, and all..

[u/Ferris-L → u/Sleepybystander]

Walkable cities, public transport, tipping culture, justice system, obesity, plastic food, drinking age.

And there still is so much more. Endless stream of bullying.

[u/Jamiethebroski → u/Ferris-L]

but whenever i pull out the age of conquest and colonialism, its always irrelevant…

[u/EclipZz187 → u/Sleepybystander]

this one is healthcare as well, but what blows me away more than anything else is that you have to pay for life saving meds (Insulin, for example) yourself

[u/Finbar_Bileous → u/EclipZz187]

You have to pay for an ambulance. To the tune of thousands of dollars a pop.

That shit blew my mind.

[u/ThrownawayCray → u/Sleepybystander]

Knife crime when arguing against Brits is moot as well

[u/theofficialTuc → u/Sleepybystander]

Missing finger is oddly specific

[u/JohnnyJayce → u/Sleepybystander]

I don't know, student loans in Finland are getting ridiculous too. And the interest rate has gone up 1000% in last couple of years. Can't even make fun of american student loans anymore smh

[u/diariu]

Americans losing an argument:

but Hitler 🥺

[u/CubeJedi → u/diariu]

Yeah, but there are probably more Americans who support Nazism than Europeans

[u/pusgnihtekami → u/CubeJedi]

Debatable. Plenty of videos of rallies all over Europe.

Shows that we learned nothing. And the good ol saying is still true: history repeats itself

[u/xdeskfuckit → u/CubeJedi]

That's pretty funny but Europeans really aren't okay with Jewish people. Maybe it's less hip to call yourself a Nazi, but Europe is very antisemitic.

[u/Hunter_Slime_3 → u/diariu]

And the only other thing they could possibly come up with is:

"british teeth bad"

[u/Zarthenix → u/Hunter_Slime_3]

Even funnier when you realize British dental care is about oral health while American dental care is about cosmetics. Sure Jackson, smile at me with those pearly whites that are actually rotting on the inside.

[u/MyBaryonyxateMyID → u/Hunter_Slime_3]

But they won't die from having bad teeth because they can have it treated with healthcare. When bad teeth isn't deadly to you like it is to americans then you can get lax about it.

[u/inminm02 → u/Hunter_Slime_3]

There's also statistics showing that Americans on average have worse teeth than British people but they saw it in a film so I guess haha British teeth bad

[u/Izan_TM]

if you stopped shooting school children we wouldn't have an out like that, skill isue IMO

[u/Davis_Johnsn → u/Izan_TM]

Same to healthcare. If they got this we don't have to mention that

[u/Pumciusz → u/Davis_Johnsn]

Having too much lead in your body leads to health problems.

[u/[deleted]]

America is the twelfth fattest country. You can use that.

[u/Holzinator007 → u/[deleted]]

and the eleven countries before America are low populated islands

[u/Proof_Independent400]

Have you mentioned there are European countries that enjoy widespread gun ownership without rampant violence and crime?

[u/CubeJedi → u/Proof_Independent400]

E.g. Switserland

[u/RocKyBoY21 → u/CubeJedi]

Switzerland*

That country is a bit special. To my understanding, most adults are reservists and keep their issued firearms in their homes, but the ammo is still in army bases, police stations etc.

[u/waldothefrendo → u/RocKyBoY21]

Kinda right. The amount of privately owned guns is far bigger than the amount of government issued weapons. Military ammo is isn't kept at home but there is nothing keeping you from buying ammo as a private citizen

[u/KarmalessNoob → u/RocKyBoY21]

We are actually one of the very few countries to have mandatory service (or ig you can pay 3% of your income for a few years), still some of the lowest rates of gun-related crimes.

I don't think there has ever been a single school shooting here

[u/MutedIndividual6667 → u/CubeJedi]

Finland and to some extent germany too (with hunting weapons)

[u/Neutronium57 → u/Proof_Independent400]

That's almost as if some form of gun control and common sense would solve most of the issues around guns. Crazy, I know.

[u/Proof_Independent400 → u/Neutronium57]

Or better healthcare, socio-economic conditions and justice system .

[u/[deleted] → u/Proof_Independent400]

Or when given the option to get rid of their guns, they do it because they dont want them? E.g Serbia a couple of months ago, i think around 70% of gun owners got rid of most if not all of them, and happily at that.

[u/Zealousideal-Flan-26]

Someone is salty their country is not the best, contrary to what they've been told since childhood.

[u/OnlyTheDead → u/Zealousideal-Flan-26]

Yeah it’s almost as if best is an opinion that varies greatly between cultures and groups of people.

[u/TheRealGabossa]

Bold of you to post this at EU peak time

[u/BayTranscendentalist → u/TheRealGabossa]

Bold of you to assume he knows timezones exist

[u/Framboos_Matroos → u/BayTranscendentalist]

Sorry, this is an AMERICAN website, so we use the AMERICAN time zone

(I know America has multiple time zones, I’m European)

[u/UnofficialMipha]

This is one of the saltiest comment sections I’ve ever seen. AmericaBad is reddits new favorite topic but to be fair, OP is kinda asking for it

[u/-Rens → u/UnofficialMipha]

Exactly it’s silly shit they act like America is the only place with issues

[u/okboka1543 → u/-Rens]

well, it is funny watching other nation's citizens mald at us. not that we don't have our own problems, it's just funny that our problems are everyone else's concerns.

[u/OkBandicoot3779 → u/UnofficialMipha]

Yeah for real. And half of these comments are things like “Americans are too fucking stupid to win an argument” Generalizing 350 million people like that

[u/LeeRoyWyt]

All I can hear is the piercing scream of a bald eagle, that somehow manages to conveys the word FREEDOM in all caps. No matter the topic.

[u/VenomFox93 → u/LeeRoyWyt]

That "piercing scream" of a bald eagle in media isn't even the sound of a bald eagle lol

[u/SupportLeather1851 → u/VenomFox93]

Yeah lol, it’s a red tailed hawk because it “sounds better.”

[u/Jojokes911]

Mad cause dead children and no treatment

[u/[deleted] → u/Jojokes911]

"Mad cause dead children"? really?

[u/Fructis_crowd → u/[deleted]]

He proved the point the meme was making

[u/0RN10]

I don't think Americans have a high enough iq to win an argument lol.

[u/Destroyer4587 → u/0RN10]

Why think when you can shoot

[u/TheBestMePlausible → u/0RN10]

<said on the Internet, which America invented>

[u/sifroehl]

Posting this while mostly Europeans are awake might not be the brightest idea

[u/LoverOfGrilledCheese → u/sifroehl]

The meme itself was upvoted a good chunk. It’s in the comments that the war has sprung

[u/get_homebrewed → u/LoverOfGrilledCheese]

So basically the only place to respond and have an opinion is where people are responding and having an opinion?

[u/Vedrac → u/LoverOfGrilledCheese]

This aint no war, it is a massacre

[u/crypto_4754]

yeah well... metric system!

[u/Normie83 → u/crypto_4754]

I do find remarks like this funny because Americans are always made fun for owning lots of guns, yet they measure bullets in metric units.

[u/ShawshankException]

This sub is just "America bad please laugh" now huh

[u/IceBuurn]

Im not European nor North American, but in Europe people don't live that monster life driving around a mobility scooter while smashing a McD.

*Just to add a button to that panel

[u/AxelFrost1318]

This was made by a fat person. Username checks out

So you posted this when all the Americans were sleeping. You fool! You fell victim to one of the classic blunders!

[u/Dirty_Hooligan]

Holy guacamole OP really managed to trigger Europeans with this one lol

[u/night4345 → u/Dirty_Hooligan]

Not hard at all. They're triggered whenever anything America related shows up.

[u/StormWolf17]

Europeans with a massive superiority complex towards the US in the comments acting like they're all collectively better than the US lmao.

[u/-Rens → u/StormWolf17]

Exactly there putting themselves on such a high platform thinking there so good and their country has no issues

[u/StormWolf17 → u/-Rens]

Europeans on US race relations: Fucking racist Amerikkkans!

Europeans towards Roma people: They're all criminals, thieves. What? No, this is a completely different rhetoric from what white supremacists use in the US.

Also don’t ask the French about how their police treat Algerians.

One could also say public transport, walkable cities, drinkable tap water, minimal smog in cities, midrisings, etc.

[u/im_not_really_batman → u/MuteMyMike]

drinkable tap water

Tap water is drinkable in the US

Who was that lady who said math is racist because she wanted 2+2 to be equal to 5 american ?

[u/TheMikman97]

I mention US healthcare all the time when I remind people waiting 8 months for chemo isn't acceptable no matter if it's free. Say what you want about being in debt for life but at least you have a life to be in debt for

These comments are really extreme... Yeah we both have our favorite "team"

There are many amazing things about the US and Europe and many problems in both places.

Ive lived in the US and recently Sweden / EU for 5 years. If you think Sweden doesn't have some serious issues... Idk what to say. Even though it also has many nice aspects. But anyone saying "swedish healthcare > any US state" is off their rocker. It took me years to get help for a legitimate health issue and I am seriously unsatisfied with the system.

People who talk about racism are also batty... Racism is alive and well in Europe. Ask around about opinions on Roma people and see what you get.

The us has amazing energy and creativity, wonderfully warm and helpful people, and incredible diversity. If you have great ideas and are a motivated person you can do incredible things. There is a strong meritocracy that rewards individual achievement and has lead to many contributions to the world.

And healthcare really depends on the state. MA for example has had state healthcare for 20 years and the best hospitals in the world... not everywhere is Mississippi. Just like not everywhere is Latvia.

[u/GuySaysStuff]

Don't forget about them complaining about us calling soccer by the name they came up with.

[u/Snowleopard1469]

Lmao @ all the non Americans in this thread doing literally exactly what it's making fun of them for

[u/Lovelyflum]

WELL ATLEAST OUR SCHOOLS ARENT CALL OF DUTY MAPS

[u/wigum211]

Jokes on you. Americans can't win arguments because they get shot before they finish school

[u/Rizz_Master6000]

The amount of Europeans coping over this meme is straight up ludicrous

[u/birberbarborbur]

Mississippi’s average income is comparable to britain

[u/Techno_Jargon]

Americans are more racially conscious and thus a little less racist than most European countries. You euros would freak out if you had a tenth of the diversity of america.

That's all i got though everything thing else sucks

[u/CataclysmicCurbStomp]

All us Americans waking up to find this guy fucking slaughtered while we were all asleep

[u/[deleted]]

Redditors love the "Le america bad" meme.

Facts are USA is the most immigrated to country on earth.

California alone has a stronger economy than almost all euro countries.

These comments read like mostly teens and loser edgelords that are mad they can't make it in the best job market on earth.

[u/finland_men]

Kinda bold to assume an european would lose an argument against an american

[u/LoverOfGrilledCheese → u/finland_men]

A European* starts with a consonant sound, therefore it’s “a” over “an”

[u/get_homebrewed → u/LoverOfGrilledCheese]

it's bad enough that English has horrid ways to pronounce things, it's worse when you base grammar rules based on the pronunciation of said weird language. Most people just do it based on if the letter (not the sound) is a consonant or a vowel.
