You know for everyone that says don't judge us (our country) by what a few stupid ppl say or do, it seems to be that is the only way ppl judge America AT ALL. WE are not all backwards retarded inbreds that live off of Welfare. Yes there are stupid ppl in America. There are stupid ppl IN EVERY COUNTRY. Stop judging us by a hand full of fuckwads...or by Texas....

OT: These ppl need to be drug out into an alley somewhere and shot. Shame there's not a legal way to weed out stupid ppl. But Facebook would be the best place to start.

I so agree!
also Japan and Germany surrendered. how is that a victory?
also the americans did not join the war until 1941 the war started in 1939(little late to the party). while other countries were getting the shit beaten out of them and having millions dying. America just prances in and says we will come and save the day!
How is that not a victory? Would it only be a victory if they were completely annihilated?

What the fuck am I doing.

Anyway. This isn't even really surprising anymore.
It's like nobody ever fucking taught the stupids about Nagasaki and Hiroshima. Or maybe they did but whichever jackass it was had a PATRIOTISM moment and spelled it out like America was dropping pureness bombs on the devil's asshole which was poking out in two seperate Japanese residential zones somehow.
You're right... that really is obnoxious.

I don't really know what the curriculum in the U.S. covers, but I'm pretty sure it goes along the lines of:
"-We won WW2. Single Handedly, obviously. The Europeans were defenceless. By the way. The capital of Europe is France, and they have the Queen of England on the throne.
-Pearl Harbour was an act of evil from the Japs and there was nothing we could have done to defend ourselves from this demonic evil - not even lift the radio silence so we could warn them about the incoming attack that we knew about for more than 24 hours.
-We won the Vietnamese war. Totally. That was just a tactical retreat to... y'know... stuff.
-Oh! And we won the Civil war. Definitely! And, yeah, it totally counts as a victory to us - and it doesn't matter that we fought against ourselves!"

It's interesting to think that the U.S. has actually not ever won a war. They're good at getting into them though. Must be some younger-brother complex.
So you generalize American education based upon some backwater redneck morons viewpoints? Since we're assuming things here, I'm going to go ahead and go along the lines of saying that you think that every American is in league with these rejects, am I right?

Back on topic: Wherever you go there will stupid people with stupid comments to make. Wherever you are in the world. But please people, don't group the majority of Americans with the minority of ignorant jackasses.
To put it short; Almost. But who said that the people who posted this on facebook are rednecks and ignorant fools? It wouldn't surprise me if many of them were actually properly educated - college level for some - but were subjected to propaganda as part of their education and therefore have some very deeply rooted irrational dislike for Japanese people.

That said; America has a huuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuge amount of people who are very undereducated on what in other parts of the western world seem to be known by near the 100% bar (assuming you're actually an average person who just finished his education). Things like: Where is the U.S. on the map? The value of pi. How Israel was founded. What the long term effects are of eating junk food daily. The virtue of avoiding debt and credit cards.

You're right though; there will be ignorance and assholes wherever you go. I just find that the vocal majority of them seem to be American.
Looking back I apologize for my rather hasty reply. I get somewhat defensive when people lump all Americans together. But I digress.

is anyone else freaked out as to how simaler all these comments are?
can you say hivemind?
It's the audience these forums have. I think most here have a vested interest (primarily through past and planned purchases, I would guess) in industries/products predominantly or exclusively from Japan (such as video games, anime, etc.). It's an inescapable fact that Japanese video games and anime are linked, either directly, or indirectly through the culture, just as could be said of American or European produced television/movies and video games. Simply put, our interests have broadened our sensibilities.

Also, generally speaking, we've probably spent more time on our Empathy and Humanity ranks...

People are ignorant. Facebook is made up of people. Voila. ;p

It is kind of crushing to see so many people do that. Pathetically so. This is just... these people... I support my country, but that's just petty and stupid. Those people should be ashamed.

YES! (not actually)
It is more like America seems to have the mentality that if they had not come in and fight against Germany and Japan, then it would have never ended and the countries who were part of the allies would have never defeated the Axis.

It's sad that so, so many people get upset over this.

It's Women's Soccer. I can't imagine anything Americans would care less about.

Too late, we've already been exposed to too many dum-dums.

In all seriousness though, it's a well known fact that the US education system is kind of lacking, and it's starting to show. Facebook is nice and all, but the problem is that it allows idiots like these to voice their ignorant opinions for all the rest of the world to see. And that causes people from other countries to dislike Americans.

So..
Why does The Doctor love us humans again?
Yeah, it's a big generalization, but you can't deny that most people ARE like that.
Or maybe that's just in Israel.

Just more proof why I condemn facebook and stupid/ignorant people.

It's sad really. Of course this is what others in different countries think ALL Americans are like.

(Let the record show: Yes I am American)

You didn't "Win" WW2... you pussied out, decided "it's too hard to fight people smarter then us that we'll all worship years later when they found 'Nintendo' and most other technology"

and dropped a bomb on them
not just one, but TWO

and killed MILLIONS of INNOCENT CIVILIANS!

and if you conservative douchebags had enough of a BRAIN to look over your HISTORY FOR ONCE IN AWHILE! yes they blew up pearl harbor.. why..? because we were GIVING THEM OIL FROM PEARL HARBOR TO HELP THEM IN THE WAR! then suddenly decided "oh wait we're going to just embargo this trade route"

OF COURSE THEY GOT TICKED OFF!

so I have a challenge for you conservative America

give your kid a chocolate bar every day and promise that child that you will give them a chocolate bar EVERY DAY, have them sign a contract binding to say so

then after about a month (or a week if it's a younger child) suddenly stop and say "because I don't feel like buying you chocolate anymore"

now if the kid throws a tantrum (which of course they will)

Then please, kill your child and all of your child's friends with a slow painful cancerous death, get everyone to throw a party, and say something like "ADULTS WIN! SUCK THAT KIDDIES!"

for daring to react negatively to you being a dick!

Wow.

Congratulations for labeling my entire country for the facebook posts of 0.0000003% of our population.

Perhaps I should do a collage of the titles of "America sucks" threads started by Europeans. Probably isn't enough bandwidth on the entire internet to fit that image file.

In regards to the ignorant comments, it is an amazing scientific discovery you have stumbled upon... people use the internet to say stupid shit. Give this kid a Nobel Prize.
You seem kind of upset. If you would have taken the time to read the OP, you would have seen that I feel sorry for the non-stupid Americans that will be put in the same basket as the dum-dums because of this. As the title and the OP also suggest, it's more of a rant about people not thinking before they post silly stuff. Something you just did yourself, it seems.

Also, I did not make the picture in the OP, I saved it from a certain well-known imageboard and simply reposted it here.

Indeed, Shenanigans should be called. Either way this is still really stupid and ignorant. Those people need to get a soccer ball kicked into their crotch several hundred times.

I'll let you in on a secret.

98% of the people who posted those things?

Are kidding around.

You've been trolled. By quite a few people. On Facebook.

Indirectly.

That's quite an accomplishment.

The scary thing, to me, is that you might actually believe what you just wrote here.

And I find that an awful lot of Europeans are intolerant bigots who look for any excuse they can find to hate America.

Or do I?

Hmmm.

I could just be feeding into negative stereotypes of Europeans that are common among ignorant Americans. You know, kinda like you're feeding into negative stereotypes of Americans that are common among ignorant Europeans.
