remember where you came from immigrant

huh? I come from California. That's where I was born. My mom was born in Pennsylvania and her parents were born in Lithuania. So my grand parents were immigrants, but I am not. Though I do not like much of European countries and their governments. I mean, why would I? There's reasons my relatives left that fucking continent to come here and it's called the "Old World" for a reason. No offense to any Europeans in the thread, it's mostly your governments and what not I'm not a fan of.

Inspired by the "Why do Americans think the Democrats are left wing?" thread where foreigners attempt to "educate" Americans about American politics. Foreigners seem to think that all Americans are inbred racist retards.

Let's look at the facts:

Europe - Even more racist than the US with a society that isn't even as diverse as ours. They haven't had a major ethnic cleansing for 10 or so years AND haven't started a major war for 70! Impressive!

Asia - Exists solely to build cheap plastic shit for the US. The only country that could actually stand on it's own (Japan) is filled with perverts. At least they can do math really well.

Australia - A culture so "enlightened" that they have internet blacklists and ban violent video games. Apparently they've forgotten that they're all descendants of European rejects.

Canada - Like Asia, their economy is entirely dependent on the US buying shit from them. Think they are superior because they have universal healthcare. In reality they basically exist to serve their masters with delicious maple syrup and moose memorabilia.

South America/Africa/Middle East - Irrelevant.

tl;dr America is the best so fuck off and stop bothering us with your irrelevant bullshit about "hurr durr you guyz aren't librul enough".

Because of posts and thinking like yours.

What a xenophobic post. I wasn't aware Asia was a country? Or Europe?

Plus parts of Canada and Europe are just as culturally diverse as the US. You'd know that if you bothered to travel.

I think most intelligent peoples around the world are superior to the average american. Having a open minded progressive slant on things allows for one to continually learn about the world and the human condition. An emphasis on art, music and nature ensures one stays in touch with the child inside.

The starbuck mcdonalds stripmall landscape we surround ourselves with may seem fine but its killing people and making them robots.

The biggest problem with the average American is they don't travel and therefore turn into insular xenophobes like the OP. Honestly so many people I work with haven't even left the freaking west coast in their entire insular lives.

Thats the power of music and art. Culture CAN spread without people leaving their homes even. With the internet the way it is there is no reason for people to have such a insular simple world view.

You could spend your entire life looking at new interesting art and expanding who you are. Some of us dont and use the internet to regress even further. You see that sickness here.

Yeah, you're calling people immigrants who aren't immigrants. They're the descendants of immigrants, so? So are the Native Americans, yet we call them NATIVE. I don't agree exactly with the person you quoted, but to call people born in the USA immigrants is retarded.

It's bizarre that you've mixed countries and continents here but... OK. In any event, the UK is not more racist than America, america is absurdly racist IMO compared to the UK. we haven't started a war.... that's good.

I would like to see some studies contrasting relative racism in the Europe and the US. Or any other quantitative data suggest what you state is true. Can you provide it?

Freedom Fries. Think about it.

They go best with freedom salt and freedom ketchup. :thumbsup:

Honestly, I try not to think too much about the knee-jerk reaction post 9/11. Xenophobia reared its ugly head in some very embarrassing ways back then. Its best just to try not to repeat it, and move on.

Actually it's blatent trolling. There's too much nonsense in the OP for anyone to take it seriously.

Comparing Countries to Continents. lulz
"Asia - Exists solely to build cheap plastic shit for the US." - ROFL
"(Japan) is filled with perverts" :sneaky:
"Australia - A culture so "enlightened" that they have internet blacklists" - LOL Wat. Anyone who believes this is a moron an needs to stop watching fox news.
"In reality they basically exist to serve their masters with delicious maple syrup and moose memorabilia." - Obvious satire.
"South America/Africa/Middle East - Irrelevant." - Ends with some truth.

Because of Jersey Shore and its predecessors. Most of us aren't that bad but if you watched American TV I couldn't blame you for thinking we're nothing but a bunch of pants shitting drunken retards over here. The truth is we rarely shit our pants these days.

There's lots of people born in the US who you probably consider immigrants.
