The world ≈ USA

Why do people (and the news) whenever they say something like "the whole world is affected by this" meanwhile it's just America that's being affected by whatever it is? A lot of Americans I 'met' also are really self centred and think the world revolves around them. They also think they're better than everyone else (same w/ Europeans).

Years ago some Americans came to my school and everyone wanted to see them so badly which I understood cuz it's only on TV we saw American people but thinking about it it's like there wasn’t even anything special about it. Like they were just random white people. One wanted to convince me so much that my parents would split up because theirs did and that if you hadn’t had x by age 14, it's somehow a bad thing and it makes you unlovable(because they already did and people around them) they are also some of the most racist people you'll ever meet (and Europeans). Attributing blonde hair and blue to just white people when they're not the only race that has it. Most Americans don't even have naturally blonde hair (and Europeans).

Btw "dumb blonde" "typical dumb blonde" "are you blonde by any chance?" but it's brown/black haired people that dyed their hair blonde??? Never made sense to me. And "I'm too European for this" pisses me off a lot. Anyway obviously I don't mean ALL Americans and Europeans. Thanks for listening to my TED talk!
