In all fairness the USA seems like a great place to live in, I would wager one of the best in the world. But it bothers me that so many americans think that they're the best in everything without having proper knowledge about it. I do not mind patriotism, I actually like it but as a proud European myself I simply have to reply on some things.
because we won the game irl
I have no clue what exactly you meant with this but the USA didn't perform very great in the history. Prio to WW2 it was not that relevant at all, actually the economy was in need of fixing. The war basicly contributed so much to the economy and so many European countries relied upon the USA after that. The funny thing is that they got dragged into the war by the attack on pearl harbor otherwise they likely remained neutral. The USA certainly did not ''win'' WW2 alone and its role in that is always overexaturated. If we take a look at the allied nations we can conclude that the USSR had by far the most relevance in the ending of the war. The USA simply was just one of the several players and even with all those players it was a close call. The collapse of the older ''empires'' (British and French) simply brought some opportunities for the USA. Europe had millions of casualties and many cities dealt with massive destruction, which took very long to recover from.
The USA didn't really outperform the USSR either during the cold war, it was mainly slacking behind take the space race for example. The only extraordinary thing the USA did was the moonlanding, now there are many conspiracy theories about whether or not it was fake. But besides that, the USSR did outperform the USA there aswell in almost everything.
Most people agree that the USA became a super-power after WW2 and ever since has held that position, but true winners they are not. Right now they are being outperformed by many countries and unions already and more competition is on their way. The USA has a massive debt and has about an equall GDP to that of the EU for the past years. Do not forget that the Dollar ever since WW2 has been used as ''The world's currency'' and thats a relevant thing to mention as the USA will be easily surpassed by China within a decade. The demise of the USA is a likely scenario, once those signs are more clear it will have massive consequences for the USA.
But even if we deny all of the previous points and state that the USA is the true winner of WW2, the Cold war and has the greatest economy in the world. All that is very briefly in the history and is nothing compared to most of the history of the world. The USA is not an empire unlike many previous empires. The 20th century wasn't for the British, nor will the 21th century be for the Americans.
since there are just as many fat people in europe as america the point is irrelevant
The average rate of obesity across Europe is about one in six adults, in the USA its about one in three.
also pretty sure healthcare in america is far better than the communist ***** version in your countries
The USA is ranked 37th across the world on healthcare in the research I've quickly read. I am not stating that this is true, meanwhile France is 1st in that paper and most European countries are ranked higher than the USA. Also claiming that Europe is communist in general is not true either. Some countries are indeed quite socialist (France for example), there are many countries which are not like that. My country for example is quite alright and we've had a conservative-liberal majority for the past two elections.
well the exact same can be said about the states since it is larger than the european continent
Wrong there aswell. Anyway what do you seek to achieve by having the largest country. We have plenty of space and whats the point of having alot of ''useless'' land. Just because Rusia is the largest country in the world doesn't mean **** when alot of it is frozen or unhabituated. Anyway many countries in Europe still have realms across the seas and the oceans, mine included. But take a look at Denmark for example with Greenland.
as customs, cultures, lifestyles and economic and social conditions vary just as widely from state to state here as they do from country to country in europe
Surely you have differences but a newly founded country like the USA has far less customs, cultures and whatsoever compared to a continent with a huge amount of history, cultures and languages. Theres a reason they're called states and not countries by themselves.
and that "europe" refers to western europe.
People might mistake ''Europe'' with the ''European Union''. But most people do not refer to western Europe with Europe. This might be an easy mistake for people outside Europe. Even countries such as Turkey which have only little areas in Europe are still mostly viewed as Europeans. Even weirder Isreal is seen as an European country tru many without them even being located in Europe. For example they also participate in some European events.
