It's in your news, and also in your entertainment fiction. It's everywhere, you are brainwashed. You constantly swallow anti-American propaganda spoonfed to you by your mass media, and then turn around and think you know more about a nation than the people that live there.
How stupid and arrogant can you be?
Actually the Brits aren't brainwashed Perro, nor are we stupid and arrogant.
What would you call someone who thinks they know more about a country than the people that live there?
Better informed? I am Scottish but honest enough to admit there are people who don't live here, that know more about Scottish history than i do.
We're not talking about history, Vic. We are talking about daily life. Do you think there are people that have never set foot in Scotland but have a better understanding of what it's like to live there than you? Do you think that people that have never set foot in Scotland should be lecturing you on what it's like to live there?
