Great. This thread has devolved into the pathetic nationalistic "my dad's better than your dad" horse shit I see on Youtube all the time.

No, it has turned into the "your Dad doesn't own my Dad" argument. The only ones saying they are better than anyone is the Americans. Meanwhile other nationalities are just saying they do exist and do matter some. That the US doesn't own the world and is not the best at everything.

Don't put that on all of us. You're simply broadly generalizing Americans in the same paragraph that you're accusing Americans of broadly generalizing everyone else.

I live in the US and my entire family are American. So don't put that on us? I was clearly refering to the Americans here who are saying US = worldwide which says more about them than anything else. I am just defending the victims of such an attack (something the Nazi's also claimed) but if I offended you I apologize. I just saw dozens of comments about MURICA (a term used to rididule Americans ironically now used by Americans). But yes, you are right, I should just ignore people who are too ignorant to understand that there is A whole world out their and one country/ 50 states, don't own everything.
