I do think they're better than us

America elected Donald Trump
America is morbidly obese
It has a higher death count from firearms per capita than some nations who are currently at war
America is putting children in cages
The Vice President believes in Gay Conversion Therapy and doesn't think women should be allowed to serve in the miltiary
America has the Patriot Act
America has extended the right to search your e-mails without warrant
America has the biggest concentration of supporters of things such as Flat-Earth, Intelligent Design, No Man Made Climate Change
America spends more on Healthcare per head than anyone else but then has a lower standard than most of Europe
America Elected Donald Trump

America has some of the best aspects of any Nation on Earth inside it but as a whole? Right now? Yeah Europeans think they are better.

Go to France or Germany and they almost expect to you apologize

theyre not a hivemind.

based in personal experience the English do think theyre better than other Europeans, they act pretty nasty in Italy. Again not all of them, but many of them. I am sure they feel better than anyone else then too, including Americans.

french think theyre special. Like, if I sell my baguette with onions dont dare ask for
no onions, you barbarian! And why do you Americans ask for Diet Coke?

Italians look up to Americans. The Spanish see the Americans as a superpower. The Portuguese are indifferent.

the Germans see us as low tech and indisciplined.

It's not a circus at all when you shut off the news. Just wear a mask when you go to the store, the spread is slowing, and 99.99% of everywhere you go here life is totally normal.

europeans can be arrogant so i'd say yes in regards to the topic title but i wouldn't say that's necessarily wrong

but what would help is if people travel and experience more of the world outside of their area to actually understand how it's like rather than basing places on stereotypes and what they watch on TV

also just saying...germany is way better than other european countries + US

I actually toured Spain, Paris and Rome last summer and everyone was extremely nice, but I also learned general greetings in their language so they didn't see me as an idiot American American upfront.

Having been there, people are definitely living better lives than over here.

i've said it before but i firmly believe(even though i've only visited the place once) that the US is by far the best place to live if you're fairly rich.

anything below that though and you'll probably have a much better life elsewhere.

america has tesla while german carmakers are still stuck in whatever fucking decade

and i've never met a single german who sees the US as "low tech"

like WTF. one of the first things germans will criticize about germany is that our digital infrastructure is fucking non-existant. tons of dead zones. need physical paper for any official form, and you need like 20 official forms just to breathe.

and don't even get me started on our pathetic schools

Yeah I was surprised starting work at a German company recently, when they started celebrating roll-out of their digital transformation, like it's not something every other company already did 10 years ago. Their stereotypes in tech/engineering of being efficient, procedural, robust... they're not true.

This might shock you but America was making cars a hundred years ago.

European companies (not just Germany) are actually far behind the US and Asia when it comes to technology. This is a big problem for the German auto industry in particular.

It's pretty commonly believed in the UK. Lots of people want a German car, cause the engineering is supposedly so good.

The UK generally thinks its better than USA too, but at the same time is also trying its best to crawl down to that same level of perception.
