What if you replaced "Americans" with "Africans"?
Would that be acceptable?

And Africa is a continent
...I don't think anyone was calling into question the intelligence of people from Peru. Where, as we all know, they have talking bears.

Africans as a group are dumb.
Believing in witchcraft, cutting off girls' clits, corruption, banana republics...

Banana republics?
Thems Latin America, see how making sweeping generalisations can lead to ignorance?

Humans are thick
However, given their status, power and wealth, Americans have the ability to project their stupid on an international stage far more effectively than any other nation.
Also Africa seems to be aware of some of it's social issues and is trying to address them. Americans? Nah, they'll just vote in a champion of inequality and continue shooting each other.

Seeing as we're comparing Americans and Africans then
On your criteria of rulers they elect, social issues and violence to each other you're saying Africans are more enlightened than Americans?

Nope, I'm saying that Americans broadcast their stupid better than anyone else.

What that a bunch of seemingly liberal people have found a way to justify their racial prejudices?
You'll hate it at a local labour party meeting then.
Also don't you fucking dare press delete!

Yes, and that was the implied joke/threat but thanks for spelling it out for the slower children.

I'm fairly right wing, I'm just pro-Europe and very anti-US
I think Labour are currently a deluded bunch of unreconstructed hippies.

When you say pro Europe, do you mean pro EU?

What sort of infrastructure did you create, rather than steal and make bigger?
Radio? Nope. Television? Nope. Computers? Nope. Networking? Nope. I'll give you DARPA/Internet, but again all the groundwork was there for you with the networking invention... just stolen and made bigger.
The US takes other people's ideas, makes them lowest common denominator to suit their populous and then advertises the crass shit to other idiots, which unfortunately saturate the earth.
