Most Americans fall into three camps: the ones who take mainstream European criticisms of the US at face value and make their worship of (western) Europe into their entire identity
I know exactly the type. It’s so cringe to see them come to Europe and wallow in how awful the US is.
They never quite realize that the people they talk to don’t find them neither “brave” nor “on their level”, since everyone who was raised right knows that you don’t shit in your own nest.
That’s common knowledge around the world. Even among snobby French or Dutch. You country may not be perfect, but you don’t shit all over it to total stranger for their approval.
