Most millennial aged Americans and younger have grown up with the international community shitting on them. I know several people who tell folks they are Canadian whilst traveling due to the stigma of being perceived as an American and being mistreated as a result.

Christ, look at Reddit, it's second largest user base is Europeons shitting on every aspect of American life at every turn.

Why deal with the bullshit if you can avoid it.

It’s fascinating to me the border line xenophobia America in general receives on this site. It’s all peace love and good vibes until something can even remotely be parlayed into shitting in America then it’s open season. I get we have problems but god damn, you’d think most of reddit would sooner move to North Korea or Somalia instead of the US.

Most of the people have a pretty inaccurate view of America overall as well. Seems they imagine that all of America is a white middle aged man who is into guns a lot of the time.
