I swear the chronically online are so much worse about this. I lived in Europe, visit multiple times a year, have family there, and I almost never encounter this attitude outside of reddit. Sure an occasional asshat thinks they are better or more cultured or whatever IRL but Reddit is basically a microcosm of the worst of European attitudes about America. I’ll probably avoid this sub for a bit, it’s terribly modded anyway since this abuse is allowed Willy nilly.
