The problem it was never a joke, it was always barely conscious retards saying “Let’s go Brandon” thinking it was some kind of clever inside joke and that no one knew what they were actually saying

My fault, I didn’t know I was talking to Yuri. Sorry for wasting my time talking to you

You literally said in your post that America is not that bad and that there’s somehow a world of difference between different states, I’m just stating facts about how everything about those statements is bullshit. You can be mad about that if you want but you can’t claim it’s not that bad here when it’s literally worse than every developed nation

I’ve almost never felt like a European was talking down to me. If you feel like you’re experiencing that often, maybe there’s a reason. I know self-reflection is hard for you, our school system propagandizes our children to never do such a thing, but I believe that you can change for the better.

I mean if you wanna play this game, our public education also is not up to the standards of those countries, unless you’re comparing to Bosnia instead of Germany for some odd reason. Yes, especially in those states you mentioned. Also those states are still subject to the American healthcare system. And those states, possibly excluding VT, have a much higher rate of poverty and homelessness than any developed nation in Europe. All of these things are enough to destroy your argument by themselves, but when added up you have no legs to stand on

I find it hard to believe that Vermont Colorado and California even fit in with Western European standards considering the absolute lack of any useful public transportation in any of those states. Even NY only resembles Europe in NYC, upstate NY is some of the worst parts of the US to live in.

American here, these discussions have absolutely no bearing on anything. The US propaganda machine will keep churning regardless of what any of us think, our lawmakers are only doing the bidding of the corporate ruling class and if they try to go against that grain they’re blackballed from politics basically forever. I’m glad some Europeans see through the propaganda but many non-Americans truly don’t understand how bad it is here and still to this day move here seeking “freedom” that no longer exists (and arguably never did). Honestly the guy who made this post is at best a bad faith troll parroting twenty year old talking points to distract people and piss them off. Anyone with access to Google should know that the cultural distinction between the bay area and Chicago are smaller than the distinction between Sussex and Manchester. Calling OP a fucking dumbass is both an understatement and unproductive, but it’s no less productive than any comment actually trying to change OP’s mind about such an uneducated opinion.

I’m still convinced that fat people just don’t have this feeling. Like when I eat too much, I legitimately feel sick. Stomach aches, neck and chest pain, nausea, lethargy, it’s awful. I’m on the borderline between healthy and overweight (even though I have basically no fat on my body). I have no idea how anyone functions while eating enough to gain and maintain all this weight. It’s completely insane to me

the charts are what people are actually listening to

But this statement by itself is incredibly disingenuous. Artists and record labels literally have to pay Spotify to get their songs to be played in the algorithm. Yes, it is technically what people are listening to but it’s actually almost always which record company decided to break open their wallet the most for that particular song.

Acting like common slang is somehow incongruous with “philosophical” conversation and voicing that opinion is hilariously hypocritical. I urge you to consider what it is about that language that upsets you so much and take some time to work on it. I use common slang mostly because the point is obvious and using big words makes people feel like the speaker thinks they are above everyone they are speaking to. I wrote out that entire long ass sentence instead of saying you sound like a conceited jackass because I know you edge from unnecessarily long phrases.

Nah, it was pretty obvious. It’s not his fault y’all are dumb as fuck. It happens! Just be happy you learned something today

Direct effects of the “body positivity” movement

Being fat is unhealthy. Loving yourself does not mean you are without flaw, it means making yourself the best you you can be. Stop being content with being fat, and stop allowing your friends to be fat
