m0ntAnd so the dominos of the decline of US supremacy continue to fall. Not only are their European allies so fucking done with the US for pissing them off and stabbing them in the back, but now they get rewarded for being rational and for having even just an ounce of morals in the right places.
NangijalaAs a Dane, I cannot underline enough how fucking done we are with the US.
I’m almost grateful that he’s being this obnoxious, because it means that we might have way less American influence in Denmark in the future and that is something I have yearned for since Bush.
A girl can dream.
… that is something I have yearned for since Bush.
You are a real one, and I appreciate you. As an American, I’m so sorry; we deserve your ire and those of us who are capable of the embarrassment are drowning in it, and doing our part for a future where we do not fuck with your lives again, even though it’ll probably happen anyway. Dream on, please.
If it is any comfort to you, most of us know that the people of America are largely decent and just want to live their lives and not bother anybody. My main issue with America has always been with the country and the culture, not really individual people. It would be foolish to hate on millions of people who have harmed nobody and just happened to be born somewhere.
In essence, my biggest gripe with America has always been on the pathetic excuse of a welfare system you guys have. You all deserve so much better and it pisses me off that you’re being taught to eat crow and not only like it, but express gratitude and pride for it. Many of you are smart enough to see through the bullshit, but all of you are stuck living in one of the richest countries in the world while having third world social conditions. I cannot express in words how disgusted I am by that.
As for all the geopolitical and media stuff, those are institutions I feel disgust towards.
I hope that no matter what happens in the future, that you and your fellow Americans will have better conditions to live under and better, more responsible leadership.
I am, however, still glad that my country as well as most other European countries are moving away from the USA. It was not an equal and fair relationship in many ways and both sides have been at fault to some degree. I think we are better off separate and I think that the US as a whole is also interested in this separation to look for new alliances. I for one, am thrilled about Europe’s future, even though this transition period is going to be tough. We will be stronger in the long run without the US.
Culturally we are actually pretty nice, it’s the meta-culture propagated and controlled by billionaires that’s the problem
Yeah, I guess I should have explained myself better, that my issue is that I have felt for a long time that my culture has increasingly been replaced with American culture due to the import of American entertainment. So our language has been altered and we have adopted American traditions while slowly phasing out our own and it has bothered me for a very long time. That isn’t Americans’ fault that we began adopting these cultural things, but if we end up separating ourselves more from America, then my hope is that we will also maybe start looking for cultural influence elsewhere and start embracing more of our own old traditions again.
