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

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.

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

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

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.
