It may look silly, but it's a real issue. There are people who read about problems (real or imaginary) that exist in the US and just copy those talking points wholesale, without stopping for a second to consider whether any of it even applies here
Notable examples include:
-Roe v Wade sperg
-Random Trump policies sperg
-niggers being killed sperg (in a country that has 5 blacks and 3 of those are american tourists)
-waaaah carcentrism sperg (in a city built circa VIII century)

A whiel ago I made the mistake of watching a mainstream talkshow. The token nigger used the word african-american for black people. Not black people in america, for black people here in my country.

Sorry, I probably should have clarified it earlier. The "american social media dominance" doesn't bother me at all- the only thing I find mildly funny and a little annoying is people who can't filter the content they consume and just can't seem to recognize that something simply doesn't apply to them on a national (and, more often, personal) level

Yeah that's fair. Similar phenomenon on our side of the pond as well with Americans getting uppity over "well the Europeans do [x] [y] and [z]! We're so backwards and stupid because we don't!" and it gets my goat as well.

GPS doesn't work like that.

Not GPS, the cell signal itself. Glowies can track phones by triangulating signal strengths and pings from the cell towers. Because of the signal wave you need more towers for 5G, which gives better "detail" when trying to track someone because you have more towers in an area to ensure coverage.

I fail to see how that's a problem caused by America and not your fellow countrymen going full retard. I don't read news stories from other countries and lose my mind over some stupid shit that Pierre Richelesaux pretard je logriouxoueuraxeux did unless it directly effects my own country.

Its not directly cause by the US, it's a side effect of them being the cultural hegemony of the western world. However you are right that the real blame lies on these people focusing on the USA to the detriment of their own countries.

The EU really dislikes nationalism and wants to push that retarded "Pan-European" idea, but they couldn't just get rid of national identities so they slowly pushed anti-Americanism as a form of safe nationalism. You can't be proud of being a German, but you can be proud of how advanced and rational the German government is compared to those backward troglodytes of the USA.

Canada is probably the most extreme example of this. Their entire national identity has shifted to be pretty much 24/7 vitriolic hatred of the USA and a contrarian view of everything Yankee and Dixie to the point of goddamn Ultranationalism. Canadian boomers as giving the American Boomers a run for their money on how much they are destroying everything out of a desperate desire to maintain the illusion of the End of History.

The funny thing is that someone like that could actually be considered "white" in parts of Latin America.

Not even joking, in Brazil during colonial times, they had rules that certain jobs could only be held by whites, but there weren't enough whites to fill those jobs. You would think they would import more whites, reducing the number of those jobs, or abolishing the racial requirement entirely.....Wrong! The Brazilian solution was to allow people to change their race classification, by purchasing a certificate from the government that said the holder was considered "legally white" for job purposes.

That's part of why you get the meme of delusional brown Brazilians or other brown Latin Americans identifying as white, because their great-great-great-great-great grandpa paid for what was basically a legal race change, to get a better job.

New Reddit layout sucks even more. Now there's this wide "join now" banner on the left side which one cannot close. The old.reddit layout is still up for who knows how long.
