dude all that shit on jerry springer and jenny jones and whatnot is fake...its all hired actors lol....a very small part of the population is like that...im not saying no one is because i have known people like that before and they are fucked up...but all of those people are actors hired to do taht shit.

Same difference.. people take what they see/hear in for consideration and make up a general impression..
Faking it makes it even worse, in many peoples opinion.

i agree that but thats the media doing all that shit...not america. i have no control over whether or not they hire actors to be illiterate hillbillies. and neither does 99% of america...people take the wrong shit into consideration when they look at america.

Yeah, reminds me off..
The media in America seems to be having WAY TOO MUCH power.
And as we all know, media is very important to the general impression of a country.

just the fact that those dumb ass shows like jerry springer have been on tv for awhile shows that americans are dumb. they wouldn't be on tv, if people didn't watch them. So if a show like jerry springer lasts for as long as it has, that means there are a lot of people out there who like it. And you gotta be dumb to like that show, or any show like it.
The fact that Britney spears, nsync, (fill in the blank of just about any mainstream artist that sells a lot) sell so many copies also shows how dumb americans are. Have you ever listened to britney spears lyrics? Has she ever had a message in any of her songs? Does she have any song with lyrics that have any meaning?
Look how popular all these stupid ass reality tv shows are. So many fuckin people watch these goddamn dumb ass shows. Man I have seen a couple of episodes of them, and they are so stupid. There is like no piont to the shows. Yet dumb ass americans are fascinated by them.

America
Canada
Mexico
England
Italy
Spain
and i can honestly say from my experiences that americans are far from the dumbest people, we're far from the most racist, and we're far from the most arrogant!
the amount of intellect i've experienced is about the same....the dumbest people though i'd have to say out of that bunch would have to be the french canadians as well as the rudest.
the most arrogant people i've ever met came from england
the most racist , mexico

I'd have to agree with you on the rudest people being french canadian

Oh Hell Yeah! And the Dumbest people are the Eastern Canadians (neufies ect.).
I think a lot of people don't like Americans for they're attitudes, like Trauma's, "We're the best at everything". We're living in a time of the "American Empire". And like any other empire, it won't last forever. And that's the god damn truth.

He summed up pretty much alot of canadians views

the rest of the world must be as dumb as americans because most of these shows are derived from europe and/or do just as well in their markets. so blah
the backstreet boys and n'sync and the spice girls were popular in canada and western europe way before they got big in the US. so blah
again most of these reality shows' concepts derive from european ones. the only all american reality shows are probably the real world and cops. and just like the jerry springer and jenny jones thing....they're JSUT as marketable oversees. so blah
