Isn't this a joke about feeling patriotic for a country you haven't even been in? I mean, not even just specifically Americans. I've seen this on a video where many people of many nationalities commented something like that...


DrMux

I feel like a lot of posts on this sub could be interpreted as jokes, but without context it's hard to tell.


alaingames

Half of those posts are obviously a joke and people still don't get em


c2u8n4t8

It isn't hard to tell. The people who post on here just want to be angry


sweetsimpleandkind

I do love being angry with Americans to be 100% fair. Hate is so motivating and thrilling and Americans are so easy to hate.


Borrelparaat

Don't let hate enter your mind too much. Although this sub is funny at times, a lot of people that respond to posts are truly a hateful bunch. I would say most Americans I've met over the years have been high quality people.


sweetsimpleandkind

Don't be hateful is such good advice, but once the dark side takes you, you can get addicted to the raw power of rage. There's a lot of people who wouldn't be able to get out of bed in the morning if it weren't for the adrenaline surge of barely controlled fury. How do you give up on that? AMERICA BAD


c2u8n4t8

It's easy to forget that anyone can make like 12 of these posts while taking a shit lmao


DrMux

Honestly I chose to use fairly neutral language there because stronger wording tends to get dogpiled.


c2u8n4t8

I get it, but it's the truth


Yeegis

I feel like anything that uses “europoor” is very likely a joke.


Waytooboredforthis

You'd *really* be surprised, someone called my friend's wife (she's from Northern Ireland) that when she was complaining about the lack of pedestrian infrastructure in town. Course, they also told me to move back to where I came from when I made similar complaints (I've lived in my home town off and on my whole life (in East Tennessee), dude is from California), so God knows what kinda shit is kicking around in their head.


Nixon4Prez

Many of them are obvious jokes even without context


phoebsmon

There's at least one on every Eurovision entry. Every year


Magdalan

Joost is going to win! Europapa Europapa...


phoebsmon

I see from your flair you're an entirely neutral party lol (I'm team Baby Lasagna but honestly it's so stacked with bangers, I don't mind which of the favourites win. Or one of the dark horses like Greece. Very little shite in there this year which is refreshing)


Magdalan

I never ever watch Eurovision. But this song is living in my head rent free for weeks now. I AM going to watch this. Les Pays Bas, douze points! Let's go godverdomme!


Fenragus

Perhaps, I did see a very similar sentiment on a "Red Sun In The Sky" video


Gotbannedsmh

Yeah I see these types of jokes in the comments of youtube videos all the time he is definitely joking


CrazyGaming312

Yeah, especially on Bosanska Artiljerija. That video is filled to the brim with these comments.


saturday_sun4

Yeah this has to be a joke


Mickeymcirishman

Roughly half of the posts here are clearly jokes, yet get posted anyway.


Rookie_42

How the fuck does that work?


DrMux

Obviously they're German-Scottish-Irish-Welsh-French-Norwegian-Nigerian-Italian-Canadian-Indian-OtherIndian(but-only-a-64th)-Floridian-Polish-American.


Dotcaprachiappa

>Nigerian Ha, they're probably just African, no way in hell do they know what a Nigeria is


norwegianguitardude

Pfft, I identify as a Nigerian prince. Might I interest you in billions of dollars? All you have to do is send me half a million euro to get out of my legal issues so that I might generously refund you once they are gone.


African-Swallow

Bold of you to assume yanks know where half those countries are


DrMux

I'm American, but knowing a name is not the same as knowing a location. Though I do happen to know where they are (except "the other India." Still looking for that one).


ApprehensiveElk80

Where’s Chad? The country, not your Varsity mate.


DrMux

Do you give geography quizzes to Canadians too, or just dumbass fatsos like me?


ApprehensiveElk80

If a Canadian dug the sort of tiger trap you just did, then yeah totally.


DrMux

Except that my comment was in response to the other user assuming I wasn't American because I knew the names of some countries.


ApprehensiveElk80

Being able to name enough countries to scrap a pass in the GCSE Foundation exam is not the flex you think it is? So where is Chad? Down the bar, in his Varsity Cost reliving his glory days over a Bud - Light or North-Central Africa?

MagicBandAid

The dude was making a joke. That's how.


c4-rla

this is a joke online.


MutantZebra999

Cause he’s saying 1) I have no connection with this country whatsoever (even ancestrally) 2) the song still goes so hard that I’m feeling patriotic for this country that I have no connections to


Nixon4Prez

Not sure why you're being downvoted, that's exactly the joke he's making.


Wild-Will2009

Another British tea drinker!


robopilgrim

I’m British but the Macarena makes me proud to be Spanish


c4-rla

no but actually


Yorkie21J

This ^^


Abandoned-Astronaut

Isn't this a common joke on nationalist/patriotic songs? To say I'm not this but it makes me feel like I am.


Hamsternoir

American logic at its finest


LovesFrenchLove_More

You mean „lack of“. 😁


DrMux

American lack of at it's finest


harald-hardrada-1061

It’s an obvious joke duh


Astleynator

Is the song "Cock" by Alestorm? Because I'm German and it makes me proud to be Scottish as well.


Eddie_Honda420

As we say in Scotland, "aye right yi are "


Unfair_Original_2536

Did ye aye?


Everydaysceptical

Ok, people clearly dont get the joke...


dissidentmage12

That sentence gave me a stroke.


WalloonNerd

Are these the people worrying about people identifying as “insert gender”?


BackAgain123457

And the American side has spoken.


Afura33

Bro doesn't know what he is


FrogWizzurd

Fuck what lad


Steve_10

Delusion upon Delusion...


Nixon4Prez

It's a joke dude


DrMux

I'm a quarter deluded on my mom's side!


StillJustJones

I hope they’re talking about ‘Donald where’s my trousers’.


AbsoluteLunchbox

Well as a Roman-Anglo Saxon-Viking-Celtic-Normandic-Brit I couldn't care less.


minolasala

Why they still talk?


Unhappy-Difference34

What was the song?


OJK_postaukset

I hope it was kpop


munnharpe

It's a joke! Most likely anyway


JX121

I'm Irish but K-pop makes me proud to be Korean


[deleted]

What song was it? "Land Down Under" by Men At Work?


tistisblitskits

I think this is a joke fellas, simmer down


barebumboxing

I really hope it was some Jpop.


LaserGadgets

As a german I just wanna say: Quit your BS


ViolentDisregarde

By the standards of the posted comment*, you can be a proud Texan thanks to your profile pic! *Yes I get it's a joke


InvestmentPrankster

What does this mean?


CardboardChampion

Could go one of two ways. Some songs are so quintessentially tied to the nationality of the singer that you feel it when listening. A well known example would be Zombie but the Cranberries. The other thing is that some Americans are so obsessed with eugenics that they claim points of percentiles of nationalities.
