‘America Is The Only Country In The World’: 64 Times Internet Users Showed Just How Much They Lack Education
Good grades aren’t everything, sure. But good education, an open mind, and intellectual humility are all undervalued. Way, way undervalued. And you can see the results when you go on social media.
Look, the fact is that everyone, no matter where they’re from, makes mistakes from time to time. But some folks are so loud with their wrong opinions that other netizens can’t help but take notice. Some of the most egregiously uneducated and arrogant internet users get called out by members of one satirical Facebook group. We’re bringing you the cringiest posts and comments to make you laugh as you facepalm.

They’d freak out at the fact that within the UK regional variations are Mum, Mom and Mam.

The fact that HP is British is neither here nor there really. No one in the books says "Mate, Man U are doing well this season" either. It's a book about a boy wizard, no one cares about muggle sports

I didn't know what either type of flapjack was, so I looked it up. For the pandas, like me, who are from neither country, in the UK a flapjack is a very delicious sounding oat bar. It's made with rolled oats, brown sugar, butter, and syrup, and I'll be making some tomorrow. In the US, this is called a cereal bar, and a flapjack is another word for a pancake.

Thank fùck it isn't. If USD was the global standard, I'd be even more impoverished than I already am!

Always amuses me how many American's say 'fùck Yourope', but in the same breath, are desperate to tell you how exotic they are cos their great-grandma lived in Belgium once. 🙄

Or more often Postie here, although they’re not a proper postie unless they wear shorts in winter.

What does it matter if ballots are printed in multiple languages? In Wales we just get on with dual Lang signs. And Singapore copes ok with seven official languages.

I mean technically you can, France, Andorra and Spain for example. Spain, France, Germany is a bit trickier….

Europeans also make silly assumptions about what is available in other countries. I had a Dutch friend visit Australia for a few months, and she brought a selection of herbs and spices with her from the Netherlands. Really common ones like basil and cinnamon that are easily found in all Australian supermarkets.

This just sounds like someone making an honest mistake and missing a zero...not really sure why this person deserves to be made fun of.

These all show extreme arrogance and ignorance. Come on intelligent Americans, we know you exist, come out out of hiding and restore your country's reputation.

Well the problem is, these are rage-bait, or at least sneer-bait. I've seen heaps of them recycled here on BP over and over. So, yes, there are stupid ppl on the net - surely no-one thinks their own country has no stupid people? Ignorant, bigoted people? Whence this superiority? Some of them are funny, and Trump/Maga is scary, but I'm starting to feel a little diminished in myself, by reading these over n over.
