They believe they are top dogs but, by US standards, they are impoverished.

o.0

No, they are not.

Median wealth is way better. and that doesn’t even take into account that you can get way better housing/healtcare/whatever for less money.

What are you even talking about?

German nationalism died with Hitler

Oh, how I wish this to be even remotely true!

so you claim that portuguese run around, claiming theirs is the best country?

How about the austrians? Irish? Scotts? Danish? Polish? Czech? Croats?

Note: I wouldn’t ask about Netherlands or nordic countries (because imho IF they’d claim that, then they just might kinda have a good point) or the swiss (they can claim similar, I just wouldn’t follow their reasoning in the slightest).

Well, and there’s the English too…

But still: what is a good example in your opinion?

ah, look - some american thinking it’s all americans everywhere

that’s “new”

yes, the roots are old.

but previous to capitalism we didn’t all scream about how these things are virtues and we should all strife to be MORE selfish.

thing is: US-americans obviously ARE too stupid to realize it.

I AM a European.

I’ve never heard any German claim that this should be a good country by any means.

“We’ve kinda got some industry” - “yeah, but china got more”

“We’re relatively good at healtcare and social security” - “have you ever even heard about nordic countries?”

“Uh, freedom of religion?” - “france does it better”

“We’re claimed to be exact and punctual?” - “No, that’s the swiss.”

“Beer and Bread?” - “That’s more like the polish?”

this!

abusive parents don’t (necessarily) see themself as evil.

I’d even guess most will say they do it all FOR their child, not against. (doesn’t have to be the truth)

sounds like Parahumans/Worm to me

yes, but that only means it’ll get closer and closer to c.

just bite it!

why do you think the bad guys are running from him? because that one guy with weird fetish is a danger to hundreds of armed henchmen?

well, they panic while bad stuff happens…

but act? most people always only react, never act.
