I find that Chris Rock has the best summary of it with his "I'm American" routine: "What, you think you’re better than somebody from France ’cause you came out of a pussy in Detroit?"
Nothing specifically American about it though. Many people in France think they're better than Syrian refugees because they're born from a pussy in Paris.

- tarancato 10y agoThe ancestors of that pussy in Paris built an advanced society with equal rights, education, respect, etc. That's why people born from a French pussy deserve that, while people from other societies do not. Is it our fault that other people that have had the same hundreds of years to build advanced societies haven't done it? Do we have to literally live worse because of it?
- wreft 10y agoPeople from other societies deserve all these good things too. Uncontrolled immigration may not be the best way to achieve this though.
- tarancato 10y agoNo they do not deserve anything they and their ancestors haven't worked for. Nobody just "deserves" anything.
- lordnacho 10y ago> Nobody just "deserves" anything. A few comments up you're saying the French deserved their stuff because their ancestors worked for it.
- tarancato 10y agoNobody just "deserves" anything [just for being born. Someone has to work hard for everything]
- turar 10y agoYet you claimed precisely that a few comments above.
- NetStrikeForce 10y agoCognitive dissonance.
- grecy 10y ago> Is it our fault that other people that have had the same hundreds of years to build advanced societies haven't done it? For tens of millions of people that were conquered by, or had democratically elected leaders overthrown by, or had their economies crippled by (US, UK, Russia) Yes. It is our fault.
- empath75 10y agoYou deserve precisely nothing because of what your ancestors did. Everyone deserves the same human rights on the basis of being born human.
- tdkl 10y agoYou can easily turn this around, since some people think the other citizens from EU should cater to their beliefs because they were born from a pussy in Kabul and Damascus.
- wreft 10y agoI agree that country of origin is 100 percent luck. That doesn't mean all cultures are equal though.
