Topic: For the benefit of Americans Posted: December 31 2004 at 16:06 |
Maybe its just because its New Years Eve. Maybe its because I'm slowly getting drunk, but I thought I should take this opportunity to invite all American forumers to have a pop at Europe.
I count myself as European - not just English, and I love all I've seen of Europe. I have immensly enjoyed my limited experice of the USA too, but its only fair, that in light of the yank bashing that has occured here of late, to which I have indeed been party to, IT'S THE YANKS TURN!!
BRING IT ON, AND KEEP IT CLEAN!! well, reasonably..
Happy new year to everyone wherever you are..

What is the point. You guys only bash, because of your insecurities, jelousy, envy and failings.
Your spite is like an intoxicating drug to me. It shows our ultimate success and your utter failure. Nobody fears and reviles the weak.

Blacksword:
"Intellecutal and cultural supremacy?" Surely you jest! Is that why most of your "greatest minds" leave the U.K. to work in the U.S.? Is that why U.S. "culture" dominates in the world (for better or worse)? (For more, see the thread on "American Empire" in this category...)
Don't get me wrong. I am an anglophile, and always have been. But you are going to have to come up with stronger positions than that to justify your greatness!  
Peace.

All this generalizing really is regretful. Not to mention pointless. I am one man, one being. I do not align myself with any religion, political party, racial profile or financial community (I am, however, blatantly heterosexual) and to count me in as a target is disrespectful, inflamatory and downright rude.
If you want to jump on individuals, corrupt politicians, hypocrits and lousy musicians and artist passing off crap as art, go ahead. Please stop the brainless generalizing, it serves no purpose, but to inflame.
If you think I'm an asshole, send me a PM and say so.
Europe? I've always wanted to go and visit, see my great-grandparents homeland, the castles of Poland, drink a pint or two with Diddy and Jim and shake hands with Dick and Easy. I have no desire nor intention to disrespect any of you, simply because of the roll of the dice that determined where your were born.
I love history. Every piece of this world has some and that is something wonderful and a reason to celebrate it, why waste our moment in time talking sh*t about perceptions and ignorance.
Peace.

Cultural Supremacy?....you guys can't even behave for 100 years without picking a fight with one another. Why does all the mass bloodshed begin in Europe?!?
Go back behind your castle walls and try flinging a boulder at one of our f-15 jets with one of your high tech catapults.

Good god. In this very childish manner of mine, I shall express my opinion on this.
Sticking feathers up your butt does not make you a chicken.
Living in America ( ahem, United States ) and being born there does not make you an American ( United Statian ).
People are not to be blamed individually for the political doings of a
country, nor the mass culture mentality. And since you are under no
circumstance capable of targeting the entire nation -- why try?
