Mostly Europeans amuse themselves about how Americans think they're living in a first world country while having absolute basic developed-world-shit just flat out fail. I.e. health care, consumer regulation, public transit, education, clean water. Sure the US is not uniform but it's a single country. Even Europe has it's own problems but most countries have this stuff figured out more or less.
The reason Europeans mock Americans is because Americans always ALWAYS complain about how they're getting fucked. And Europeans are just like "lol that shit ain't an issue here". Which a) contributes to Europeans thinking the US is a shithole and b) making Americans seem kinda whiny.

So many Americans are desperately trying to survive. I'm glad that our suffering is entertaining, though.

It's nice to laugh at people who are dying because we don't have health insurance. What a gas! /s

Y'all still waving your FATCA cock all over the world so excuse us for having some schadenfreude.

oh don't let me interrupt your laughing at people starving and dying while you blame organizations that I have nothing to do with. I've never even heard of that.

I'm just a normal person trying to not die.

Ah yes the eternal American victim complex. I've heard about this.

seems like a human rights one to me, but you have fun with the edgy teen phase. good luck.
