@eslo_dev @DerUntermutt @DanFriedman81 That was after your first insult and some way into the conversation champ. I guess I must be simple. You're obviously operating at a far higher level. Here everyday, you see the sublime and the ridiculous in equal measure. Some things are worse, some are better. Same as the US

In 2007, the standards of living in the United States and Western Europe were similar, and most people don’t realize how much things have diverged since the US boomed after the global financial crisis and Europe didn’t. They don’t fully understand how we’re living and we don’t fully understand how they’re living; even when we visit Europe as tourists, we don’t see their tiny, sad flats and their depressing grocery stores. That is why Europeans visiting for the World Cup are going to, like, a Waffle House or a Taco Bell and losing their minds. Stuff we don’t even like or care about is wildly superior to everything everywhere else. We have no idea how rich we are.
Fox News@FoxNews

World Cup tourists fall in love with middle America — raving about Waffle House at 1 a.m., Buc-ee's gas stations, and strangers driving them to stadiums in the rain. Oxford Economics expects 1.24 million international visitors for the tournament, and their viral posts are showcasing a side of the country most foreign media never covers.

Of course not everything is better in the US. Yet instead of saying things that the UK does better (public transport, public safety (for now), etc, you went with “actually incomes and GDP hasn’t stagnated and the restrictions on our freedoms aren’t real”. The worst part is it’s really obvious you don’t understand how freedoms in the US and the UK work. The exact philosophy that you stated, in which you are free to do anything unless a law restricts it, is descriptive of the US, its constitution, and its absolute adherence to that constitution. “Congress shall make no law infringing upon…” The UK has no equivalent document or structure. That is why you get things like offensive tweets becoming a bannable offense. Just one example of the countless.

@eslo_dev @DerUntermutt @DanFriedman81 Apologies, missed the word additional. Point still stands that there is one example of many that exist. I'm not sure why you would think everything is superior in one place vs another, life is rarely that straightforward

It’s not just twitter, but is your mind so simple that you can’t see that it applies to all internet communications, and that twitter is just an example? Theres no decline? British real GDP has not grown in 7 years. Freedoms decline with every passing month. Went from most impressive nation in history to the inability to do anything.

@st3vat @DerUntermutt @DanFriedman81 The US is negative rights based. Which means you can do anything unless a law prevents it. The UK is the one that is increasingly positive rights based. Hence the “right to healthcare” and stuff. Learn literally anything you fucking retard

@eslo_dev @DerUntermutt @DanFriedman81 You said no freedoms. Zero. Zip. I can walk straight through the middle of the farm right next to where i live with the right to roam. Ultimately our system is defined by liberty to do anything unless a law exists to prevent it. Whereas the US is rights based

The irony considering you started this with an insult. If you can’t take it, don’t dish it out retard. The UK used to be rich and is growing poorer by the day. The UK produced the Magna Carta and great thinkers like John Locke, and now it imprisons people for offensive tweets, demands access to private communications, private devices, and identity verifications. The more you deny it, the worse it is going to get. For what reason? An attempt at twitter clout?

@eslo_dev @DerUntermutt @DanFriedman81 See that's your problem, you're only thinking about money, when there are factors that aren't economic, and many that are centrally funded in a way the US would struggle with owing to it's size. You understand this is not an insult, just some things are better in both places

Nope. Europe, especially the UK, is far behind in consumption, income, social transfer adjusted income, pretty much every hard economic metric you can find. And I googled. There are 2 personal freedoms that the US (may, depending on state) restrict more than the UK. Those being abortion and prostitution. So I guess if you want to be a hooker and kill babies, the UK is the holy grail

@eslo_dev @DerUntermutt @DanFriedman81 High consumption sure, which is why the tariffs mechanism was completely ridiculous, I'm sure you'll agree. There are many factors at play tho. Some are better in the US. Some are better in Europe

0 more personal freedoms. The US has zero, quite literally zero, laws that restrict any personal freedom more than the UK does. Zero. Zip. None. You can see the links. Most of it is OECD data. The US is top in the world in every measure except median disposable which goes to Norway and Luxembourg. UK is wayyyyy far down, below OECD average.

@eslo_dev @DerUntermutt @DanFriedman81 Far more personal freedoms. An independent, US based agency rates these things each year and includes access to services, restrictive laws etc of which there are far less in the UK. Most of Europe is ahead of the US including the UK. Income is a factor in sol, there are more

Brits have half the disposable median income of Americans oecd.org/en/publication… If you remove London, British disposable income drops by about 1/3. The US ranks #1 in disposable income, cost of living adjusted, and including social transfers at $71k. The UK ranks #12, at 49k. data-viewer.oecd.org/?chartId=1c5e9… Cost of living adjusted, the US is #1 in consumption, at 51.5k. The UK is #13 at 28.5k. databank.worldbank.org/reports.aspx?s… The UK has more freedoms than the US? Is this a joke? You can get arrested to a tweet in the UK. You need to age/identity verify to use several websites. Starmer just demanded that Google and Apple conduct full scans of photos on devices. The list goes on. That’s genuinely the most laughable point. More freedoms in the UK? Insane

This and variations go on forever lmao. The only one thinking about cuckoldry is you. Why are you letting an entire nation, which you hold in such low regard, live so rent free in your head? It’s genuinely hilarious When confronted with numbers and facts, all you can do is cry about Americans lmao. It’s like a self-fulfilling cycle. The funniest part is you relying on American AI for your opinion 😂 1st year American residents make as much as 1st year British residents when calculated per hour. Full doctors in the US make 2-4x more than British counterparts. And that’s for US doctors on the lowest end of the pay scale lmao

The guy brought up doctors to show how British growth has stagnated. Which is true. British real GDP has barely recovered since COVID, whereas US real GDP has grown significantly Also, 9% of your tweets are about Americans 😂😂😂 Did an American fuck your mother and wife while you watched or something? Never seen someone let an entire population live so rent free in their head, for no reason other than envy

@eslo_dev @DanFriedman81 A 1st year Resident in the US is called an intern. That is the official name. To be so conceited and ignorant at the same time is truly impressive, even by American standards. And I'm not engaging with endlessly moving goalposts. The guy brought up 1st year doctor, nothing else.

That’s a resident not an intern dumbass lmfao And again, what happens when they become full time doctors? How much are British doctors making compared to American doctors? I don’t understand the difference between pounds and dollars? Do tell All of this made more hilarious that you are relying on American-made AI slop All you have to do is look at British real GDP since 2008 buddy

So 37.5k for a 40 hour work week? Lmfao? Helluva an own goal. In the US, it is pretty trivial to get a job that pays $25/hour. Assuming 2 weeks of vacation, that’s 50k USD, or 37.5k pounds a year. Where are you get the idea than an American intern is making 68k, or working 70-80 hours a week…? In the US, on the lowest end, a doctor will start at around 150k pounds. 4x a British doctor.

@DanFriedman81 Nice irrelevant subject to bring up but you're delusionally wrong again: The starting salary for a doctor in London per hour (45k pounds for 48hours per week) is higher than an American intern (68k dollars for 70-80 hours). Let's not forget the 200-300k in student debt either.

@eslo_dev @BaldingsWorld This summary describes a differentiated picture of China. Increasingly Chinese massive interference in Europe is seen as a serious threat to the political continent. Since it is evident that China supports Russia against Ukraine, Europe is decoupling from the communist regime.

This is a classic European response - especially the German/Swedish variant: avoid discussing potential problems in the hope they’ll vanish. It’s the same mindset that led authorities and some victims of immigrant-perpetrated assaults to stay silent, lest the crimes be “used” to criticize immigration. That said, I’m not against immigration despite the frauds and rapes. The real issue is whether there’s a net benefit overall. Similarly, Europe’s anti-Americanism doesn’t automatically make it a net burden to the US. But ignoring real problems or instantly labeling critics as “MAGA” solves nothing. I’m not certain my open approach is superior, but for now I prefer it to denial.
ruediger drischel@RudyDrischel

@oliu321 @BaldingsWorld Assertions do not become facts simply because you declare them as such. Perhaps you are actually seeking this confrontation but in doing so, you are harming America as well. I will not stoop to that level. We should stop here; continuing is pointless.
