WHY AMERICANS DON'T BOTHER LEARNING EUROPEAN GEOGRAPHY EXPLAINED IN ONE IMAGE

Nice divide and conquer thread, OP. This is literally a non issue that you have made into one. We should be united in the fight against TPTB, not squabbling over knowing geography or not.

Where did I say anything to suggest anything to the contrary? You seriously disappoint me LJS. I was originally of the opinion that you were more level headed and of balanced nature. How I was mistaken. It may not be apparent, but I have refrained from using insulting terms. I find doing so inevitably results in the kind of rancour which is apparent in this thread now.
It is disturbing that the vast majority of US posters here have such a negative view of us Europeans.

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?

Its not the size of a dog in the fight, its the size of the fight in the dog.

I see op is smarter than you also. Op is being a nationalist which is the opposite of globalist. The globalist want us "all to get together". See the EU fir how that plays out in the real world.

You know what else op did? He has all these countries in here defending their countries showing national pride. Something very much needed in Europe and something that fights globalism.

For any turds who want to make issues of Dallas not marked on the lower map. The DFW metro is larger than the state of Connecticut -- the state of Connecticut is larger than many European countries.

We beat the British with a bunch of farmers and shovels.

Reality check.

NO.

Europeans took it from the Native Americans. We then took it from the Europeans.

LOL! not only are you terrible at geography, and a total dick, you also believe in fairy tales...it was the French who actually went bankrupt helping you beat the British, without the French you would have had no chance.



.

We have enough geography of our own to worry about.

:usa/euro:

That's not even including our biggest state, Alaska, which is more than twice as large as Texas and Texas is the size of France.

So, I'll take a geography test over Europe and take shit for not doing well on it as soon as you ace one on American geography.

Deal?

Here's our States and population centers if you need a study guide.

:mapofus:


Also if you're wondering if this thread is just another American excuse to be a douche and show off, the answers is yes, yes it is.

Well, this was easier than I thought.


And don't think we have gotten off topic either.

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.

You pretentious cry babys.

Most bizzare claim ever.

I have studied Asian geography and history. And Asia is bigger than US.
Check it.

Americans do not learn anything about anything. Period.

It seems odd that Americans celebrate their own ignorance. It does throw some light on how they managed to elect a moron like Trump.

Simple Question: How do you learn world geography?

Simple Answer: Join the United States Marine Corps.

world geography is important.
it is more than countries, states,
cities, . .
it is history, the course of humanity's
developement, . .the things, the stories
the people who lived , ..
ignorance is nothing to be proud of.
that is just being stupid.

I feel like I've just been spanked and sent to my room.
