>The US is too proud to admit that Ukraine is the world expert on drone warfare and that Americans should learn from Ukrainians.

there is literally nobody in America who nurses that type of pride, quite the opposite, Americans have been unusually open to integrating foreign ideas from the beginning.

Broad statement.

i took a peek, you didn't reply "broad statment<period>" to the comment I was replying to... hmmm, pov masquerading as logic/grammar nazi?

[apercu]

Huh?

This is what happens when you only talk to like-minded people and live in a bubble. There are still plenty of people I know who would reject foreign ideas simply because "pshaw. We can [do that/do it] better."

I mean I literally worked with a guy who got annoyed at the harmonized power cord I bought because it used IEC wire colors and "This is America where we use American wire colors, not that European shit. I taped the leads red white and blue!"

Can we not use examples from the bottom 5% of the population and extrapolate that to the entire population?

Also 99.99% chance the guy was making a joke.

> bottom 5% of the population

Where did that number come from?

> Also 99.99% chance the guy was making a joke.

If you have no idea who this person is how can you even begin to make such an assumption? You are in fact 100% wrong.

[kelipso]

Not getting jokes is a skill issue, what can I say.

[MisterTea]

You can say you are wrong because you don't know the person at all.

[kelipso]

I will say I have very low confidence that your perception of reality and actual reality match.
