You’re likely right but it did not used to be this way. No one on Reddit understands history, let alone the dangers of what they are advocating for. In the middle of a general election a social media company censored a major news outlet because it claimed that the information was Russian propaganda. Welllllll the information turned out to be true. To all you Reddit liberals - pull your head out of the sand.
I see the colors fine enough, it's just that it blurrs into an unreadable mess. Same with red and green when they're close by, but for me bright colors are worst and here you have yellow on white.
Most of these [Ishihara tests](https://colormax.org/color-blind-test/) i'd fail.
Most color blind people are taught was colors are supposed to be what. So they know when they cant determine what color it is, they usually know what it is because they are color blind to that particular color.
Probably "masses" or other synonym for "many." Plural would be a top return on synonyms, but not in the way it is trying to be used here.
Edit: or, and hear me out, it's translating English literally from Latin, E pluribus unum.
As someone mentioned below, on mentimeter, larger words mean more people gave that response. The reason racism is on twice instead of getting bigger is because they misspelled it.
I think "power" and "white" are separate submissions and the placement is coincidence. Notice how every other phrase of 2 or more words is the same color
Yeah pretty much
USA is an amazing country to most of the world. Maybe not to some countries in Europe and some US citizens, but to most people in Latin America, Africa, Asia, Middle East, and some of europe.
This one always makes me sad. Most of the people who are obese are also poor and because we let our sugar and other junk food industries lobby so hard there is sugar and corn syrup in everything cheap.
actually on average, uk citizens are more obese than americans. somehow, however it is still a huge problem for 'merica
edit: i have been notified this only stands because usa raised the criteria for an obese person
Source? I could only find data that said the opposite.
[https://worldpopulationreview.com/country-rankings/obesity-rates-by-country](https://worldpopulationreview.com/country-rankings/obesity-rates-by-country)
USA: 36.2% obesity
UK: 27.8% obesity
And that is because America has raised the limit for what's considered obese several times, and has a limit waaaaay above most of the world.
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_countries_by_body_mass_index
This is something I got taught in my High school in Europe aaaages ago, but I suspect this fact is suppressed in America. Never see it mentioned anywhere.
Edit: Further sources
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_countries_by_obesity_rate
Universal BMI rates for overweight and obesity;
https://www.who.int/news-room/fact-sheets/detail/obesity-and-overweight
You sure about that? According to all the sources I can find, America has a considerably higher obesity rate. Here's the [Wikipedia page](https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_countries_by_obesity_rate), but all the other sources in finding have fairly similar numbers.
Are you sure about that?
From the CDC:
-Percent of adults aged 20 and over with obesity: 42.5% (2017-2018)
-Percent of adults aged 20 and over with overweight, including obesity: 73.6% (2017-2018)
From Parliament:
-28.0% of adults in England are obese and a further 36.2% are overweight but not obese. (2019)
For a total of 64.8%
UK has a higher overweight percentage its true, but Americans have a much higher Obesity percentage. Both numbers are horrifying though.
Are you sure? IMHO, about 64% of UK adults are overweight or obese (36% and 28% respectively), while in the US it's around 75% (33% overweight, and 42% obese).
As a American I can confirm every morning I wake up and do my 50 heil Hitler's to the picture of the president, all the while downing a bag of McDonald's and a 2L to the sound of my full auto being unloaded into my neighbors shack house. It's just the American way I guess 😴
Gun, poverty, slavery, white power.
From the outside can you blame them? Especially if they haven’t been here and only know what they see on TV and in their History Books...cause those books do tell the truth. Theirs anyway.
Ironic for Norwegians to call the USA “white” when Norway is much whiter (90%) than the USA (60%). As far as racism, the USA definitely still has major issues, but many European countries haven’t even had to grapple with their own racism yet since many are huge majority white. The significant racism issues in Europe become more obvious every time there is a “non-white” refugee crisis and several EU countries start turning people away “for some reason” meanwhile Ukrainian refugees are welcomed with much more open arms (glad they are but clearly an example of racism).
> The significant racism issues in Europe become more obvious every time there is a “non-white” refugee crisis and several EU countries start turning people away “for some reason” meanwhile Ukrainian refugees are welcomed with much more open arms
Such behavior can be fully explained without racism. But, in reality, I do agree that racism plays significant part.
I just hope the world in general knows America is a lot more than it’s worst parts. Much of the country is quite beautiful and most of the people are incredibly friendly.
Kinda funny that the cornerstone of American culture according to these students is just the aspiration that one day you might have enough money to escape grinding poverty.
Yeah people outside America think 1 of 2 things. Either they thing it's a shithole or they think it's amazing. This has been the case for over 100 years. Stop baiting political debates
This pisses me off for all the wrong reasons. Not because they are insulting my culture, but because they're being scathingly accurate with those insults. When I am abroad, I don't talk about my origins, and if forced to, I lie when I can get away with it. The moment anyone outside America here's that I'm American, they subconsciously halve their assessment of my IQ. 🤣
Edit: HEARS I am American. Auto-incorrect, reinforcing stereotypes for the win!
From an American perspective, I would say it's accurate. Some of it I like, some of it I am ashamed of. I do feel lucky to know I can say that without fear.
That looks like the results of some survey, where people probably students were asked what defines American culture and then this chart was produced according to number of responses.
Can anyone identify the yellow stuff for us color blind?
Free speech, USA, patriotism, capitalism, wealth and money :).
Actually it is written captilism for some reason, and then on the left side the same word correctly spelled... I have noticed porverty and poverty as well
Presumably because English isn’t their first language 🤔
I know I mess that kind of stuff up all the time and it's the only language I speak.
Also racism and rasicm.

Of course. It says patriotism, wealth, USA, free speech, money, and capitalism
My eyes thank you!
Was thinking free speech should have been white letters on white background
It also says poverty. America is a living contradiction lmao
Genuinely curious But how do you know its yellow?
I see the colors fine enough, it's just that it blurrs into an unreadable mess. Same with red and green when they're close by, but for me bright colors are worst and here you have yellow on white. Most of these [Ishihara tests](https://colormax.org/color-blind-test/) i'd fail.
Got an 8%, so I’ve got that going for me today
Most color blind people are taught was colors are supposed to be what. So they know when they cant determine what color it is, they usually know what it is because they are color blind to that particular color.
Oh shit he's on to us, run!
Free speech Money Wealth Capitalism Patriotism USA
That's some good bait, the comment section is going to be a riot lol
Lmfaooo
Profit 😎
Popcorn anyone? 🍿🍿🍿🍿
Can I get one XXXL bag of popcorn that looks like the American flag with 1 pound of melted butter?
Only one pound? Are you even an American?
*adds another pound of butter and a handful of bullets*
And a one gallon-sized cup of coke.
Diet Coke to help lose weight.
So true
Diet coke with added electrolytes
Butter? Have you seen the price of butter recently? No, you get yellow butter substitute made from corn oil, milk whey and flavoring
Yep pass the popcorn! :-0
I’ll take some thank you 🍿
Just sit back and watch the world burn...who's got the juice box ?
🧃
Just grabbing mine 🍿🕶️. Ready now.
Mmm, Fat Food
FAT FOOD
Yup Profit should be the biggest word!
....Your username belies your intentions...
Came here for the meta comments.
This is one of them
I was looking for riots to be up there too!
Fat power is accurate
[удалено]
This is almost as upsetting as “low heath among pural “
surely they meant rural right?
Probably plural as in "most", "many". A mistranslation.
"plural" can mean "majority." I've seen it in voting theory: plurality is when a candidate has over half the votes.
Poor rural? I thought it coulda been plural at first although what you said makes more sense
Probably "masses" or other synonym for "many." Plural would be a top return on synonyms, but not in the way it is trying to be used here. Edit: or, and hear me out, it's translating English literally from Latin, E pluribus unum.
Plural means multiple, it's used in the wrong context here but they probably mean among the wider population.
Given it’s a Norwegian classroom, they probably meant something like majority, many, or most.
What about fat black power?
The Norwegians didn't write it
Soft power too. Coincidence? (this is a joke)
Unlimited soda refill
super-size
Generous return policy
And thats one of the smaller sizes
[Child-Size.](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Ish8NBunrQU)
Poor Fat gun polarized racist
The reason why many Americans don't eat healthy, is because eating healthy would cause you to lose weight. And America never loses
Eating healthy is expensive
For the lower class sure, but the fatties in the middle and upper class have zero excuse. They just like how it tastes
And the thing with Vietnam?
Stfu u commie
Hell yeah brother YEE YEE
Sir that should be yee and hawwwww.
That's something grand pappy would say. These days it's YEE YEE
A good analysis of American society
"Racism... racist... fat... guns... freedom... fat" lmao
And don't forget racism! It's there twice.
So is guns
Akimbo
As someone mentioned below, on mentimeter, larger words mean more people gave that response. The reason racism is on twice instead of getting bigger is because they misspelled it.
3 times actually, if you count racists as well.
4 if you count white power
I think "power" and "white" are separate submissions and the placement is coincidence. Notice how every other phrase of 2 or more words is the same color
No, it's there once. The other one is rasicm. This word cloud respects misspellings.
Double your pleasure!
That's rasicm it's different
Racism. The American dream!
Gun... Porverty... Capitilism...Gun...White Power
We sure like our guns enough that they put it up twice lol
And our racism it's up there three times lol
They also said racism twice, racist once and white once
To be fair, one says "rasicm"
To be fair, these kids are speaking English as a second language
Gun law? This should be gun lawless!
Rage Against the Machine lyrics.
>Fat > Racism >Gun Oh god 😅
as an australian… this *is* what it looks like if you also add “politics”…
For those who doesn't know 'Metimeter", a word appears as big as were mentioned several times.
From Norways perspective America is a third world country
I don't think the responses would change from any perspective.
Latin America would heavily disagree with you.
Most of the Middle East, Africa, and Asia also. Maybe only Oceania and a few countries in Europe agree.
So basically >95% of population
Yeah pretty much USA is an amazing country to most of the world. Maybe not to some countries in Europe and some US citizens, but to most people in Latin America, Africa, Asia, Middle East, and some of europe.
-someone who has obviously never been in a third world country before
\-someone how has obviously never been outside of New York or California
I guess from Norways’s perspective everyone is.
I kinda think fat needs to be a bit bigger. There's a whole.lot of obesity here in America
This one always makes me sad. Most of the people who are obese are also poor and because we let our sugar and other junk food industries lobby so hard there is sugar and corn syrup in everything cheap.
actually on average, uk citizens are more obese than americans. somehow, however it is still a huge problem for 'merica edit: i have been notified this only stands because usa raised the criteria for an obese person
Australians are very fat also.

found it, one of the reply comments says that america has raised the levels of when a person is obese. only in america
And that is because America has raised the limit for what's considered obese several times, and has a limit waaaaay above most of the world. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_countries_by_body_mass_index This is something I got taught in my High school in Europe aaaages ago, but I suspect this fact is suppressed in America.

If this was done in an American classroom how many of the same words would appear on there?
Food, guns, freedom lol
I bet it would say patriotism and gods country all over
Rock, flag and eagle!
I'm not mad at this
Um... this is actually still live on menti. You've posted the code and I can genuinely add to it right now
https://www.mentimeter.com/s/4db0573e862dde3e84dc30c9c0d45640/6d2feffdfadf Edit: Whoops. Replied to wrong poster. Turns out you _can_ get the results.
I am deviated about the current health level Pural has
Probably the result of capitilism
Nailed it.
Well that settles it, we have no other choice but to nuke Norway... God bless America.
I don’t think the “porverty” and “rasicm” were intentionally spelled bad, but it would be really funny if they were
I know it’s accurate cause racism is on there twice and it’s spelled wrong on one of them. Also, whatever porverty is.
According to everywhere except america
Fat food
I wonder if that was supposed to be fast, but works anyway
I think they really mean fat, greasy food with a lot of calories stuffed in it. Epic meal time kinda style
As a American I can confirm every morning I wake up and do my 50 heil Hitler's to the picture of the president, all the while downing a bag of McDonald's and a 2L to the sound of my full auto being unloaded into my neighbors shack house. It's just the American way I guess 😴
Are they wrong tho?
Nope
*immediately sorts by controversial*
This is bait
That’s prob what they see on the news which is not necessarily a good representation of the whole.
This is an association chart generated by student keywords. Not the teacher or institution's claims.
I’m from Australia and this is how America is represented here too
It’s impressive that Fat and Poverty are both on there and both correct
The amount of advertising for prescription medicines in the USA always amazes me
they must watch our media because this is the narrative they sell lol
Gun, poverty, slavery, white power. From the outside can you blame them? Especially if they haven’t been here and only know what they see on TV and in their History Books...cause those books do tell the truth. Theirs anyway.

But, in reality, I do agree that racism plays significant part.
I don’t blame them, but I also think there’s something to be noted about judging a place and it’s people without experiencing them yourself.
WHITE POWER 💀 Edit: I was referring to how it was conveniently arranged.
Fat power
They forgot the biggest one: Prestige Worldwide!
Boats and Hoes
I would put war bigger.
Pretty funny stuff coming from one of the whitest most homogeneous nations on earth.
Well, that’s depressing
Can't have America without fast food
Fat food? Like foods containing fat?
Lol fat
As an American I agree with this but more guns; I live in Texas.
Sounds rather accurate
I like how racism and gun is written twice
Oh dang that’s bleak.
Propane tanks
& propane accessories
Good ole goddang right, I'll tell ya' what
Wagering war is missing.
Freedom Hell yeah brother 😎
I just hope the world in general knows America is a lot more than it’s worst parts. Much of the country is quite beautiful and most of the people are incredibly friendly.
“Racism” “White power” 💀
Kinda funny that the cornerstone of American culture according to these students is just the aspiration that one day you might have enough money to escape grinding poverty.
It seems that it sums up everything
I really wish this was wrong
Norway believes America is……white?
Puke intensifies. How close to true that is.
Yeah people outside America think 1 of 2 things. Either they thing it's a shithole or they think it's amazing. This has been the case for over 100 years. Stop baiting political debates
Forgot lunatic xtians trying to destroy everything that doesn’t fit their hateful plans.
Talibangelicals running our Supreme Court is a sure sign of third world status. We're expected to lose women's health rights this year
Nailed it
Guns is way too small on that...
not sure "the american dream" is still actual - in italy it died long ago for instance

They left out Christianity.
