You're probably right on that one. Unfortunately I have too many insecurities to face the real world💀

To be honest I don't care if I'm interacting online or not I try to be respectful cause I'm interacting with other humans.

Maybe I'm a little extreme on the other side but I have a lot of love for almost everything and really don't have much to complain about. I don't see the reason to tell someone something negative if I could say something positive instead.

I have this motto "If I don't have anything nice to say, I don't say anything at all". I think having more empathy and being more sensitive towards people is exactly what many Americans need. I'm not saying everyone is like this but most of the time I only hear what they don't like if you say you like this and that artist for example it's almost guaranteed that someone will say "I hate that artist" instead of "great music".

I think Americans experienced way too much unnecessary trauma, uncertainties and weird life events in general that probably made them fearful/put them in survival mode and it turned into anger. It is definitely understandable from a psychological perspective to a point.

Aggressively? How is "typical answer" aggressive? I think calling me stereotyping, an asshole and "snooty, judgmental and condescending euro-prick" is aggressive.

Yeah I see that and it's so sad cause we could actually be so happy if we would work together and be kind to each other.

See it is as if you want to argue over any price. You're literally looking to fight with someone but I'm not. All I'm thinking is: why? It's very immature

😂

Don’t be an asshole, lmao. You complain about Americans being bloodthirsty fucks and then you turn around and act like the typical “snooty, judgmental and condescending euro-prick” stereotype we have here in the states.

I'm glad you were posting this cause that's a great example of exactly what I meant. It's just insulting, hateful and fully unconstructive. It was just a matter of time till one of these posts came. First calling me stereotyping and now an asshole and “snooty, judgmental and condescending euro-prick" lol

I know someone who moved to America. I think she's living there for over 10 years now and she basically told me the opposite that she always thought the media was exaggerating this but when she moved there she actually experienced multiple shootings (where they were evacuated in school and she even heard gunshots in her neighborhood) which made her to not go alone anymore. In Europe the concept of owning a gun alone seems unimaginable.

With that I meant that I wasn't surprised that someone will be offended and condemn me as stereotyping even though I stated multiple times that that's not my intention. I'm saying if anyone has critique towards Europe I'm very open and interested in it as well. But like I mentioned, if any it's just proving what I said

Those are the best people though and they should make the newspaper imo. Life is too short and valuable to deal with hate, we should embrace being kind to each other more. Nothing better than having a smile because some random stranger did something kind. That is what makes it worth living for me!

I definitely agree. I think this increasing cooperate greed is a global thing and people generally become more depressed. I really don't wanna bash on Americans as this is just my experience but to me it feels like the amount of hatred from Americans is not even close to the rest of the world. Maybe I'm wrong here but to me it feels like they become less human..

I hope it is just a minority. I remember when I once asked on Reddit why so many Americans like Donald Trump considering all the things he has done and said and they were saying it's just a very small minority and that they personally don't know any one who likes him. Turns out he got the popular vote making him president again. So that seemed quite detached from reality.

Typical answer. I wasn't trying to stereotype but just share my experience. I haven't experienced this type of hate here in Europe and it was a noticeable difference for me. But of course you are very welcomed to share your bad experiences with Europeans with us as long as it's constructive.
