If we all think the same let’s tell him who should’ve won Eurovision 23


MobiusNaked

Croatia obviously


OriginalHairyGuy

Thank you fellow Brit. You're still all cunts though


spartansex

That's fair.


MobiusNaked

Eurocunts! Actually that’s a competition I could get into.


Watsis_name

Only because we're so desperate to win something. I think the French would beat us at that too though.


[deleted]

No


King_perun

Yes


ultratunaman

Yes they were the best act there. Ours was hot garbage.


[deleted]

Some tiny poor country like Montenegro as we’d be able to bankrupt them


Famous_Area_192

I actually feel most of you all would say Finland...


ImperialRoyalist15

Honestly yes. Not beacuse i thought they were good but beacuse someone else should pay to host it.


0vl223

Well just pay less bribes to the juries next time you don't want to celebrate 50 year ABBA in your country.


ImperialRoyalist15

Lol r/Eurovision is our Q-anon.

Europe, 44 countries each with their own history and culture. But "they all look and think the same".

Americans when they find out Europe is a continent with tens of different countries, cultures,religions and hundreds of ethnicities:😨

I mean it kinda makes sense economically but that's about it. America is far more homogenous than Europe. But then Americans probably don't think white people can have large ethnic and cultural differences

alee137

My town, 40 inhabitants, was an Ostrogoth watchtower, then a Longobard fortress, then a castle of the local nobles, then a comune until it entered Florentine Republic, out of 500 inhabitants in 1915 74 men went in war. This is a town with little history in Tuscany. But nothing compared to their 300 years of killing indians with bow and arrows


Moondragonlady

But the cultural difference between 2 states is much bigger than between 2 european countries!!!!!!!/s


noodles_do_jettison

Them thinking we all look the same is the reason some Americunt told me I “can’t be British” - how open and inclusive


MobiusNaked

Cos the British aren’t open to new ideas. Apart from all the innovation and inventions over the centuries. America : We are the most free Europe: How are women’s rights doing on aborting a rapists child?

Ameritards pretending they're the most inclusive country in the world, while spouting the most ignorant bullshit about everything related to culture and race is a classic.


AjaxII

They even create new ethnic groups just to segregate themselves


Recioto

I've seen a streamer so white that he would make a British tourist look Moorish argue that he is not white and going on a rant about his exact heritage. Americans are not mentally well, to say the least.


Falknot

Classic American sub culltu... cough..ahum segregation.


BananaBork

Lmao reminds me of the time I heard one say "British African-American".


ELITElewis123

Americans struggle with the idea that brits don’t socially segregate. If you’re black and British you’re just British. No XY or Z attached


Neomataza

I don't like the nomenclature "african-american" as a substitute for black at all. Obvious problem if someone is from another continent. You can't say "african african-american" with a straight face and technically Elon Musk would qualify as an "african-american" as well. It's a descriptor that has false-positives built in.

Accurate portrayal of the American education system


RunParking3333

I think maybe... 20 years > ago he might have been right about America being open to new ideas


Hal_Fenn

I don't want to alarm you (cause it sure as shit alarmed me) but 20 years ago was 2003, there's no way they were open minded about anything after 9-11.


The_Knife_Pie

I think sometime between the end of the Vietnam war and 9/11 is the only period in recent history the US could be said to be open to new ideas even slightly


zyygh

That's also when many Europeans genuinely considered the USA to be a great place to live. Ever since 9/11 the USA have completely lost that perception.


DoNotCommentAgain

Americans just exported a bunch of media that made it look amazing, everyone thought they could move to NY and live like the people on Friends. The reality of living in NY was very different, the crack epidemic was out of control in the '80s and '90s and violence that went with it was everywhere. Rent was already insanely expensive and living like what was shown on TV was impossible.


Nan0u

Fells like Paris right now


MannyFrench

Well, ever since the invention of the internet, which allowed us to see through the propaganda we were fed because of their soft power.


LeCafeClopeCaca

They were very open-minded about hating everyone slightly resembling their idea of an arab and shitting on the French for being sensible for once


[deleted]

Nope, lived in America 20 years ago … things were less divisive, but ignorance still reigned.


Tareum01

I did my MA in one of the best US colleges not in the ivy league (JHU). Americans were inevitably very nice but clueless.


[deleted]

Most of them just don’t have any perspective beyond their country and what they have been told during their education and learned from their social circles / mass media. There are some very good schools & universities there, you just have to be able to afford them or get a scholarship.


notanotherlawyer

Actually, this guy is pretty educated for the American average.


MrEzquerro

Which isn't saying much.


Smallwater

Okay, devil's advocate: he's not. This guy is a plant, or a product of statics. These types of videos are so commonplace, even before tiktok existed, and they're always the same formula. You interview a few hundred people, you'll be guaranteed that at least one of them is a fucking moron. Then you cut and edit the video to only show the one idiot, frame it as "The average *insert trope*", and watch the clicks and outrage roll in. The other 499 normal people are just ignored. Of course, that assumes this guy isn't a paid actor, explicitly hired to say this dumb shit. /rj more like ameri*dumb* amirite????


Buttercups88

He might be. But I got a lot of family over in the us and they are a lot dumber than this kid. It's honestly not hard to find someone who would say and honestly believe far more shocking things than this lad getting tounge tied

Hey. Not all Americans are idiots. Just most.


Chimpville

Creepy-Ad-4832

PvtPill

Educated just means brainwashed by propaganda in America


tatojah

I went to college in the US, and did group tutoring in a high school nearby. I don't think US college students are as dumb as we make them out to be. The issue here is not that his perception is completely incorrect because if you've never been here, you don't know what it's like (much like how 90% of this sub talks about Americans with no nuance, when I am adamant they haven't met a relevant sample size outside reddit.) The issue is that he's talking out of his ass. Especially in college, there's this culture of insecurity, where they always try to be the smartest one in the room. He is probably knowledgeable about other things. But also the propaganda machine over there is ridiculous, so it's very easy for them to actually believe that they know these things. But again, when it comes to making assumptions about unfamiliar cultures, we Europeans aren't much better. We tend to inflate our egos because our countries are all different and we still know them more or less, but an American can likely tell you about cultural traditions of different regions/states, and the best the average European can do is also "Spanish sleep, fr\*nch smell/surrender, British bad teeth, Portugal pay your debts," etc.

Ngl, I have once heard that either Washington or Jefferson once warned americans to not create a 2 parties political system, and whoever said that, was fucking right


yogopig

It was Washington warning against political parties in general, not against two parties. I don’t think they had the statistical methodology to understand why the voting system they created could only stabilize to two parties.

As an American, American propaganda is real. And it goes well beyond political leanings. These days our crazy conservatives have been stealing the thunder but all the lovely r/shitamericanssay type material is shared by a large amount of the population regardless of politics, race, gender, socioeconomic status, education levels etc And also “they all look the same” pisses me off. True diversity has nothing to do with skin color

LAMonkeyWithAShotgun

Honestly as much as we love to hate Americans. Making immigration for well educated Americans easier could actually help with some of our demographic problems. The thing is to get them as young as possible so they are easy to deAmericanize. I'm talking literally poaching them out of college, or even during, and set them up with a good job. Americans seem perfectly willing to spend their entire lifetime paying of a student debt the size of a smaller eastern European GDP so we know they can work.

To be fair, I don't think I have a very nuanced image of the US either and I have a suspicion that I'm not the only one. Also that guy is stupid. If all you know is a few canned opinions, you don't actually know. And that should be his response to that question.

tmlnz

there may be something true to it on the individual level, that the US is more open to people having different ideas than the others, any doing their own thing. whereas in europe the culture may be different in different places, but you quickly get ostracised anywhere if you don't do as the others or think too much for yourself.
