First, yes, I realize “European” covers a wide array of peoples and cultures. However, the same applies to Americans, and the folks across the pond don’t seem wiling to extend us the courtesy of acknowledging that.

So that’s my response to the post question: They treat us like a mono-culture / Planet of Hats and judge and jury us all based on the loudest and most boorish of us. Newsflash: we’re not a mono-culture and are just as diverse as you.

And since there’s lots of potshot posts going around just to shit on Americans for the crime of existing, I feel turnabout’s fair play.
