Things posted on the internet cannot be unposted. That’s part of the game. But there are surely things we have posted that we’re not necessarily very proud of. Some, however, have no clue about their clueless arguments and remain unapologetic.

And there’s this corner of Reddit known as “S***AmericansSay” which is notorious for busting these kinds of instances. In fact, the community of 353k members is sharing the most cringeworthy and clueless posts spotted surfing on social media. That includes but isn’t limited to blunt arguments, embarrassing comments, hilariously inaccurate shares, you name it.

Below we selected some of the most entertaining examples that will surely make you chuckle and wonder what those people are thinking. Psst! Here's part 1 of the post with more stuff Americans (and the rest of the world, for that matter, ‘cause no one is immune to cluelessness) say!

“If You Are White You Cant Speak Spanish”

“If You Are White You Cant Speak Spanish”

NotThe--FBI Report

The use of social media has increased throughout the world, including emerging and developing nations in recent years. And, across the 11 emerging economies surveyed for this Pew Research study, 28% of adults say social media is very important for helping them keep up with political news and other developments occurring in the world.

Simultaneously, the spread of misinformation has reached new heights. With the pandemic ransacking the globe, it has become vital to separate facts from fiction and stop the harm from false statements. Today, the question of what we hold as a true and trusted piece of information and not is key, but the boundaries between the two are becoming increasingly blurred. So what happened?

"Can Anybody Tell Me If Portugal Has Running Water Like In The States?"

According to Kevin Kelli, the co-founder of Wired magazine, “Truth is no longer dictated by authorities, but is networked by peers. For every fact there is a counterfact and all these counterfacts and facts look identical online, which is confusing to most people.” When you think of it, most online content is created, shared and altered by people online. Add the lack of attention to whether the information is accurate, and you have a toxic cocktail for reproducing countless inaccurate and false content.

Meanwhile, this new study published in Nature that involves an experiment conducted by a group of researchers from MIT, the University of Regina in Canada, University of Exeter Business School in the United Kingdom and Center for Research and Teaching in Economics in Mexico, showed some interesting findings about the way people perceive what’s inaccurate online.

“It seems that the social media context may distract people from accuracy,” study coauthor Gordon Pennycook, an assistant professor of behavioral science at the University of Regina, told The Journalist’s Resource. According to him, although people are often capable of distinguishing between true and false news content, they fail to even consider whether content is accurate before they share it on social media.

According to Pennycook, “The downstream effect of improving the quality of news sharing increases with the influence of the user who is making better choices.” He added: “It may be that the effect is as effective (if not more so) for users with more followers because the importance of ‘I better make sure this is true’ is literally greater for those with more followers.”

From the structure of that sentence, they are saying the lack of Muslim immigrants is a bad thing. I'm assuming they're racist and wrote the sentence incorrectly, but I could be wrong.

The fact that Europeans murdered my ancestors. Not once but dozens of times. The holocaust was no more than a grand finale of 1,500 years of assorted massacres, expulsions, forced conversions, and lack of basic rights. Oh, and when they weren't expelling Jews, they were walling them in ghettos. The Crusaders murdered a higher proportion of Europe's Jews than the Nazi did. Jews never lived peacefully anywhere in Christian Europe for more than 1-3 generations. The longest was the Polish-Lithuanian Commonwealth where Jews were living more or less in peace for more than 200 years, until they mostly ended up stuck in the Russian Empire. Just so people know - as bad as the USSR was, the Russian Empire was so much worse.

But at the same time, it's astonishingly naive to believe it never happened before and won't happen again (just with oversight and consequence).

except the myth that civil war was about states rights was developed during the myth of the lost cause era. Ironically until right before the Civil War the south was trying to use the federal govt to force slavery in Territories that didn't want it (like Kansas) and force Northern States to enforce Southern Slave laws. Civil War was when the anti-slavery politicians won, the south panicked and rebelled, and later on the myth of states rights came around. States Rights originally was used by the Abolitionist movement as a way to avoid enforcing the fugitive slave laws.

Five night in hospital. Two surgeries with all the trimmings. 20 doses of intravenous antibiotics and about a dozen of various other tablets each day. Bed and board included, including an extreme contamination regime for the first three days since I was a near contact to a confirmed Covid case (who staid in isolation at home with a "cold" since she's fully vaccainated). Total cost: NOK 0,00, which equals USD 0,00. I didn't need an ambulance, but that too would have been included in this grand total.

Fed up with the date argument. Go from small to big or big to small but don't have the day in the middle just because of 'that's how we say it'. As if that was a good reason.

Yup. When we get born our name gets tossed in this big hat that assigns us our jobs. A Sorting Hat, so to speak. Then you get raised to do that job, only being taught knowledge and skills that pertain to that job. And if you don't like the job, too bad. You need to do it until you die.

'Nickel and dime people' ?? I assume they mean charge people small sums for small items?? Never had to pay to use a loo in a restaurant, that tends to be public toilets and I know it's a strange concept but it pays for them to be cleaned and maintained and not to stop, (lol seriously???) gypsies from falling asleep in them! 😕😖 Can't comment on McDonalds as I don't eat in them or get takeaways. Not criticising, just that type of fast food is not my preference ever.

Well, there might be a change in accent, but the language will pretty much be the same, so they're not really wrong. Here in Europe you don't have to travel that far to reach another country with a completely different language.
