I understand some people are jerks, but that also includes those who monolithize an entire class of people based on a stereotype.

I do enjoy it when people arrogantly assume ignorance, and not many years of experience travelling and witnessing different cultures.

I even called out very specific behaviours but you're trying to dismiss me by implying I'm tarring everyone with the same brush.

But I know truth and criticism can hurt and often our first response is often to deflect and blame and call the other person a jerk. I guess you're just human

There is massive irony in a European being told 'shut up, we're actually not a problem' when said European is trying to point out the issues. It's a wonderful demonstration of the arrogance and bullying that is typical in USA culture
