Insular and lazy is the REAL reason. ( or is it just poor education over there ? ) Stop lying fag Most Brits and Europeans can do the same lol - I'm nothing special - except we were educated unlike you obviously ! and calling someone a fag for no reason other than as an insult because you cant defend your argument just about sums you up. |

Quoting: Anonymous Coward 74676833 I remember learning all the world geography throughout school. The problem is the world has changed a lot since I have been out of school. Borders have moved. Countries have changed names or have become new countries. The 50 USA states have not changed in sometime. So true! I have a hellavu hard time with European geography. Before the fall of the wall, we weren't even taught about the East European countries. There was just a stamp on the map that said, "U.S.S.R.". Then the wall fell, and I suddenly had a whole new part of the world to learn about and that kept changing by the week as countries tore themselves apart in the aftermath of the fall of the Soviet Union. I gave up trying to figure it out. Don't even get me started on Africa. I have gone through more freaking globes because of changing borders and county names in that place. Grrr.

Quoting: Anonymous Coward 74603619 I think we do, we invaded it and laid the foundations dumbass....try some history with you geography. It's funny isn't it.. most of the Americans don't even know their own history. They're telling other nationalities that the US is theirs while they took it from the American Indians in the first place. besides that. New York was once a Dutch colony, if we didn't trade it with the English for Suriname, everyone would have spoke Dutch. never wondered where most of area names come from? for instance harlem? [link to en.wikipedia.org (secure)] NO. Europeans took it from the Native Americans. We then took it from the Europeans. what the hell are you sayinggg?? hahaha you're really that dumb?? you think there were americans hiding in the bushes, waiting till we drove the natives out and then americans claimed it back from the europeans???? dude,, if you're white and go back to your roots YOU are european Are you really that dumb?? Most Native Americans died at the hands of the European Empires. I am 75% European, 25% Native American. Oh, and not a dude, since you seem to be having difficulty distinguishing the difference.

NOT A ONE OF YOU COULD PASS A US GEOGRAPHY TEST AND YOU KNOW IT. So spare me your tripe about being ignorant of the world. All you know is your little piece of it and multiple countries or not it is still a fraction of what we need to know in our own country.

Anonymous Coward User ID: 17324208 United States 04/21/2017 08:35 AM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | As an American, let me say how embarrassing this thread is. 1 star. There exists an all-too pervasive subset of American culture which takes pride in its own ignorance. OP and his supporters represent it perfectly. Any time someone posts a message on this forum asking why everyone hates Americans, this thread should serve as the main reply. How noble to renounce learning and understanding, OP! Is the grey matter so sparse in your minuscule cranium that you can only fit so much, and once it reaches its capacity, that's it? So much to learn about U.S. geography that you've reached your limit? Not another brain cell to spare? Is this how our founding fathers, all learned men, thought about things? I'm a conservative. I voted for Trump. I loathe all liberals, lefties, commies and globalists. I care about conservation but I understand anthropogenic climate change for the fraud that it is. I believe segregation should be a choice that starts at local communities because people should have the right not to live near others who are proven to be more violent and less productive. I support the Second Amendment. I support a complete ban of Islam in all western nations and don't believe it conflicts with the First Amendment because Islam is, after all, a violent and seditious political system, not a religion per se. I support the Natural Born Citizen clause of the US Constitution and as such believe that our last president was actually an illegal usurper named Barry. As you can see, I'm quite right-wing. I'm not some limp-wristed Europhile with a hipster beard and a Starbucks latte by my side. But I understand that in order to defeat the diabolical forces arrayed against us in this world, we need knowledge, understanding, education, a fascination with history and the history of great men and nations. Pride in our own ignorance is precisely what TPTB want. Congratulations, OP. You're playing right into their hands. Now go munch on some hot dogs and apple pie, wave your flag, start hyping yourself for the NFL draft and spend a fortune at Walmart. That's all it really means to be an American, right? |

Oh, and not a dude, since you seem to be having difficulty distinguishing the difference. That is a common misconception. Actually 90-95% of the original native New World population succumbed to accidentally introduced Old World diseases. The brutal Spanish Conquest was greatly facilitated by diseases that caused the rapid demise of tens of millions of Aztecs, Mayans, Incans and other New World civilizations. |
