Western European here, I'm just happy Americans living here are finally getting off their high horse and realize maybe the USA isn't the best at everything.

If it was, why would they live in western Europe? My country has its flaws, but out of all the places I've visited or even lived, it's the place I think is doing stuff the best. If it wasn't, I would move elsewhere. No way I would move away from what I percieve as the best country in the world. That's just dumb.

Don't get the started on the mental gymnastics of those Americans. They bitch and whine about how people don't treat them the same as the locals, even though after 5 years they speak know only the absolute basics of the local language.

I don't know how they justify it, but they seem to think being American puts them above other cultures by default.
