IDK man is this one of those things where as an American I grew up with like super processed chocolate and regular chocolate would just taste strange to me?

Funny enough, I also grew up on super processed chocolate, and I thought I just didn't like chocolate that much, until I got some real chocolate when I was a teen.

God, Hershey's tastes like pain and sadness.

In an upper middle class european family I often ate swiss chocolate and once my dad went to the us and bought some hersheys for us to taste. / It was like 2 girls one cup in my mouth for my refined european taste buds /s

I think you meant wax. Hersheys tastes like wax.

Nah man, I've eaten those wax candies with the goo inside, they're awful, but Hershey's is several steps below.

Chocolate is a big one.

I'm talking specifically big brands, not chocolatiers, but something like Hershey's is absurd.

American chocolate is way too crumbly and oil-without-flavor with some weird mustiness; pretty much every country has better chocolate than the US.

American to international chocolate is like ketchup on a tortilla compared to a gourmet pizza.
