America invented many things, but we did not invent nationalism. It is natural to feel good things about a place where all your loved ones live and has a language and culture that is familiar to you. You really think it makes no sense to Europeans to think of their country as "the best"? It seems to some degree to be the character of most right wing parties I'm aware of that this is a part of their stance.
But also, America is the best:
1. American Breakfast
2. American Coffee
3. McDonald's
4. Best Movies
5. Most Jacked
I could go on and on.
- angry_octet 5y agoDefinitely the best in their category. No one makes better American Coffee than Americans. What I find interesting is that Americans are most proud of their culture at home, and when overseas that tends to be moderated. Whereas some immigrants always say their native country has 'the best X'. I'm thinking in particular about some Greek immigrants I've known, but then in the next breath they'll tell you about corruption back home.
- HatchedLake721 5y agoThis list made me laugh and made me worried I missed a sarcasm somewhere. I’ll give you best movies because of Hollywood, but everything else, really? Have you travelled much outside the US? It’s seems so weird to hear “USA the best because breakfast, coffee, and McDonald’s”, it sounds like a cliche. What do you mean by jacked?
