Why are you surprised? Like ignorant people don't like to post on FB. Ignorant people posted after bin Ladin was killed, they posted when Egypt ousted their leader, and Hell, my racist Uncle likes to post milestones (more like hurdles) in civil rights every day.
Fuck 'em. They don't represent us all like they think they do. This is not worth your attention.

Oh look, it's a picture made by someone who had nothing better to do except encourage people to hate on facebook and humanity. There will always be people like this and this quote I picked up on the internet will always sum up my feelings. "Don't subscribe to the vocal minority instead of the silent majority." I'm betting that's the first thing they did after realizing the U.S. lost. Look at the amount of people using their phones; it's just a knee-jerk reaction and we're all having knee-jerk reactions too. Doesn't mean that what they did isn't utterly wrong.
I find it rather amusing seeing this amount of ignorance, stupidity and racism slabbed together into one. Hell I'm saving this one.

East-Asian racial slur. Popularized by the media, particularly Vietnam War films. I first heard it in Full Metal Jacket and saw it again when someone vandalized a poster for 'Korean Night' at my school. Not as popular as the word '******' therefore not nearly as offensive and to be frank I somehow agree with that. Not many people know so they won't get offended and in my book, that's a good thing.jck4332 said:
Wikipedia begs to differ. It's more of an American slang for foreigners which is why it was used in wars and mentioned in war-films.One Hit Noob said:

Maybe if you don't want to be angered by the stupidity of stupid people, you shouldn't go looking for it. Also it might be wise to not make sweeping generalizations about a group of people based on what is statistically nothing and what is definitely not worth caring about. Get over it.
If I was a hacker or knew how to do this, I'd get as many people together as possible and spam his facebook wall with facts about Hiroshima and the Japanese and WWII, and disturbing images of the bomb aftermath, just to make him feel the extent of what he is saying and how racist he is.Disaster Button said:

sigh.
Also, I am genuinely depressed after looking at this.
Does anyone else feel like America is the crying drunkard at the party, and you're starting to wish they'd get a taxi home so the rest of us can go back to enjoying it.
I feel really sorry for the intelligent Americans who get lumped in with these. Please, just tell us you're there, all we see are these idiots. Make contact, pleeeeeeeeease!

The current nature of the human condition.
I am truly horrified that genetic similarities can be observed between we decent sentient beings and the above examples of what I would consider to be of lesser importance to the progression of life on this planet than the membrane of the bacteria in the dog shit that I scrape off the bottom of my shoe...

Wait, people are talking about the World Cup (something my country seems to care nothing about)? That is fucked up!
Oh, and the racism thing, too. Yeah, that's stupid, but what do you expect out of Americans, a people famous for their own self-importance and supposed preeminence while remaining completely ignorant of history, foreign cultures, and any lessons or meanings to be learned from either.
My fellow Americans, stop being dumbasses. The average WWII-era Japanese person saw the defeat of their then-militaristic government as something like a liberation, though controversy still exists over the A-bombing, obviously. The average Japanese person today, from what I can tell, loves or at least likes America, likely because of pop-culture and the military presense we provide them in the aftermath of their demilitarization.
In short, if we're really the freedom-loving people we claim to be (but of course we're fucking not!), then we should be glad they kicked our ass at a sport we don't care about at any other time, instead of living under facist rule.
Or if that's not good enough for the bigots, think of it like this. We bombed them, and their government was changed. They express their current freedom in everything from their economy to scientific research to international sports.
AND THEY'RE KICKING OUR ASSES AT ALL OF THOSE THINGS!!
Fucking suck it.

There have been three riots in Canada over the Stanley Cup finals...aegix drakan said:
Vancouver this year, Montreal a while back, and I think Vancouver had another, didn't it?
OT: People are stupid. This isn't new?
And anyway, it's not confined to Facebook.
This is just the worst of the worst. Even in Holland, while we're actually good friends with Germany, when there's a game against Germany it's all kraut this n that and hitler greetings galore. Most of em think it's humour.
I must add that a certain '74 soccer game also contributes to this behaviour.

Wow, this is quite amusing -- in a morbid kind of way.
Not only is there ridiculous amount of psychopath in the vast majority of those posts, but there's also tons of stupidity. Jokes on them.
For that topping you seriously can't resist, just go to FB so that your taste-buds never be remiss!

Are people really offended by this? It's not all that bad is it? Maybe it's just my sick sense of humor, but I find it sort of funny.
But of course. Don't you know how the internet works; or for that matter conversation in general?Blue_vision said:

There's a difference between light-hearted lads' banter and the stuff you see written in that collection. There is some serious racist hate and contempt there. Plus we didn't nuke Germany and if we did we probably wouldn't digest that as a source of national pride. At least I hope not.ELD3RGoD said:

I have only 3 words to say on his and these will be words that you can carry throughout your life and can be applied to a multitude of situations and will hopefully change your view of the world forever. For reference this is quite hard for me to say.
People are assholes.
Lots of people over-react to their team losing in a sporting event. I think it's stupid no matter what the sport. This is a very extreme case though.
I agree with what you said OP; they're giving the USA a really bad image. Although part of me doubts many people in Japan will be looking for this sort of thing.

Soccer..... freaking soccer..... people are talking about world war 2 and even some people are even talking about THE HIROSHIMA BOMB!..... because we lost in a soccer game... pathetic
edit: did i get the game right? I only skimmed it and I don't keep up with sports.
