You will never see Israel in the MLB or American film festivals.

    but what about all the progressive social policies!!!! you know like how in Poland and Hungary LGBT people are attacked by the government, how in France Islamaphobic cartoons attacking the Prophet were projected large onto buildings by the government, and who could forget in Italy where Mussolini's grand daughter is a significant political figure who loves her grandfather's legacy. Europe is a bastion of freedom and social progressivism!

    Israel was fucking established by Britain, and then used by Britain and France in the Suez crisis to help save the failing British empire to keep their position in Egypt. Israel and Europe have been close since day fucking 1

      Man, if Europeans on the internet gloating about how much better they are than Americans is anything to go by, then I'm fucking glad I live in America and not there. A lot of us know our country sucks, we know it's a shithole, but at least we're not under the illusion that our lib shit is actually better than other lib shit. I think even the most standard lib here can recognize what a shithole America is while you'd have to go to the deepest recesses of France or whatever to find anyone critical of that country and its place in enabling the world's current dreary conditions.

      I don't think I could stand all that huffing one's own asshole 24/7, I'd rather enjoy the company of some redneck or innercity dude than that. These deranged people actually think they're less,, not more racist, than Americans it's fucking hilarious.

        I'd say that a lot of Europeans know shit is fucked here, but it is far less than in America. America is kind of used as a vent almost, the bare minimum standard we have here gets them to point to the US and say look how much worse it is there, we can't be bad, we're better than the Americans. smug Euros absolutely need to get their head out of their ass

        Euro libs surely are annoying, but euros aren't scared of be rescued by an ambulance
