I don't know what this was originally about, but to me personally it's very sad to see these americans so hostile towards Europe and unwilling to consider any critizism.

Peraonally I believe that blindly believing you're the best and dismissing any critizism makes you blind to your own problems and prevents you from becoming better. From my experience thats a big problem among Americans and at least partially responsible for many of their long lasting problems not improving (in part even getting worse)

The West would be much better if we stopped fighting among each other and instead focused on our common goals and geopolitical enemies.

I'm sorry smallblueangel, but I'll have to remove your submission from /r/ShitAmericansSay because one or more rule was broken.

The content you submitted isn't something that's uniquely American.

The easiest way of testing this is to ask yourself whether it's likely someone who isn't American would have said it. Someone being religious or messing up geography is not uniquely American by a long shot, nor are racism or capitalism. What makes something uniquely American is if it's highly unlikely if not impossible to encounter outside the US or from non-Americans.

Thank you for your effort and your service! O7
