Morton Doodslag:
Discernment and differentiation are skills worth developing.
Like America, Europe is not a monolithic block. I’m not much interested in the Europeans hate me because I’m an American either. Yes, there are a great many reasons why Americans should be enraged with Europe. But there remains a great many good and decent people that I’m not willing to write off just yet – people like the poster ‘En Svensk Tiger. Inte mer!’ up above and the Sweden Democrat Party he speaks of. European socialists attempt to smear them as racist for opposing insane immigration policies and American lefties fall right in with the smear campaign because that is what they want to see, ignorant as ignorant can be about it.
And channel some of that anger you have towards anti-American Europeans back at Hollywood and the American left for their penchant for negative caricatures and stereotypes. They’ve been working very hard to make America look as bad as possible for a long, long time. Many of the Euros spouting their bile are indeed malicious people, but many more just don’t get the full story, the media and governments being what they are there.
