You're right, all any of us do, all day, non stop is gripe or insult American culture. Why only the other day, I was in the shop and when I got to the till to pay, all me and the cashier could talk about was America. "That'll be £44.99 please love and did you see the latest data about gun deaths in America?" God, we're so insecure.
You don't hear about American politicians farting because we decided you needed to, you hear about it because France Info, BBC, Sky News, etc. decided you did, or because you're on English speaking parts of the internet and the USA represents the largest English speaking population in the world by far.
Lmfao. American has no right to tell us what we do with out time when Americans keep shoving everything about themselves across entire globe and that's all we hear about.
Your culture is quite literally just to go around the globe and tell everyone that you have none.
