Why do people think americans are stupid

[zbaird12]

You know, as bad as this video makes us look, until Europeans can win a war without our help, I'm discrediting this entirely.

[SuperZilla12]

i herd this is faked

[TheIrishman60]

LOL kfc

[ILoveHarryandRon2000]

I'm american, and i think there stupid too.

[33Thaty]

because they are!!!!! americans are veryyyyyyyyyyy stupid

[apollus1989]

@33Thaty And what country are you from?

[SuperStarseedWarrior]

Americans are fucking stupid! brainwashing, mind control, media brainwashing, chemical poisoning, food poisoning, flouride poisoning, electo-magnetic poisoning. these people are insanly dumbed down.

[Boldchris123]

@SuperStarseedWarrior Guess who invented the internet? America, you fucktard

[apollus1989]

@SuperStarseedWarrior Man you're so right. We fucking suck in America right? For some reason as bad as it sucks were littered with illegal immigrants begging for citizenship. I wonder why people are begging to leave? Hmmmm. I wonder where you are from.

[SuperStarseedWarrior]

Americans are fucking stupid! brainwashing, mind control, medea brainwashing, chemical poisoning, food poisoning, flouride poisoning, electo-magnetic poisoning. these people are insanly dumbed down.

[Pcut]

its easier to control stupid people

[TearsOfWar1]

I hate humans. who agrees?! (this also means I hate myself)

[fouss14]

I think it way to ridiculous to say Americans are stupid or even Europeans, Asians, Africans etc. because your country does not entirely reflect you, your ideas, or actions; it's the induvidual who decides that. Why are we so caught up in ridicule and hate? Show some love and learn more about the world even if you know everything.

[UNHengineer]

@fouss14 I don't think the video is saying Americans are stupid, it is suggesting citizens like this are the reason people "believe" we are stupid. A majority of every population is made up of people who really could care less what is going on in the world, and are poorly educated on matters, so they follow blindly. Its really how the world works in many cases, because it is much easier to govern the weak and the ignorant.

[armywife012205]

Pfffft....I've met plenty of dumb fucks in European countries.

It doesn't matter what country you're in; you have idiots.

[cazmn01]

i love propaganda. even considering that they edited most of the footage out and and obviously tried to find stupid looking people, its true. a lot of americans dont know much about the world outside of their own country. America is at the top of the food chain. Here in america, they dont feel the need to teach kids about other countries or talk about the rest of the world in the news because the rest of the world doesnt matter.

[TheJazzyMan1988]

Sadly2say, you'll NEVER get ANY praise for that thought. Most Euro.s intentionally LOOK TOWARD "rednecks" and AWAY from intelligent Amer.s. Most Euro.s honestly BELIEVE a hungry 10 Y.O. black kid in Detroit is a "Bush lover" and a "member of the KKK'--cuz, you know, ALL AMERICANS are Bush voters, right? And ALL AMERICANS=KKK! Just like ALL the Hollywood models are "fat", well I have the decency to know that not ALL Europeans are that clusterfuck, I wish MOST Euro.s could return the favor.

[0123brandon3210]

dichead go suck a dick u dum american fuk i bet u those were all youre relitaves

[crunchyroler]

loooolsz this shit wasnt edited i can actually belive that americans are stupid and if u dnt belive me just watch borat

[Finovssly]

HAHAHAHAHHA YOU DUMB YANKS!

[TheJazzyMan1988]

I've never said anything about ALL Europeans...but it seems to me you always seek out the most backwoods, imbred communities. If one of these European reporters tried this in San Francisco...which is THE MOST liberal, broad-minded, intellectual city IN THE WORLD...you would get a new asshole torn into your mind.

[Finovssly]

or if you guys tryed it in Europe??

[TheJazzyMan1988]

Well I wouldn't try it in Europe because I KNOW there are stupid people and smart people everywhere! (Which makes ME one of the smart people as opposed to BIGOTS)

[sahmadpour]

americans are racist fucking pigs and a bunch of dumbshits, they have no idea what goes around the world and they do whatever the hell the government tells them to do. if president bush says jump off a cliff they'll do it. if eating mcdonalds poses a threat to america they will stop eating it if there precious little president says so. every fucking american needs to buy a fucking globe for fucksake and learn there is more to life then war and k.f.c. STAY IN SCHOOL MOTHERFUCKERS

[TheJazzyMan1988]

Only 49% of us voted for Bush. OH WAIT YOU DIDN'T READ ABOUT THAT? Hmmm guess I'm not so stupid after all. Stop judging people for a piece of land they were born on...not ALL Americans are bigots, but SOME Americans are and SO ARE YOU. When you say "all Americans" you are insulting the 30% of our country which is black, brown, or Asian. Along with the 50% who are liberals and voted for Al Gore who's main concern is SAVING THE WHOLE PLANET. Fucking bigot you don't know shit about "all" Americans.

[arbitterm]

Makes me ashamed of my countrymen.

[crunchyroler]

thank you someone who can except

 it

[damianomalley]

All this and the Americans trying to be the world Police - no wonder there will never be peace in the Middle East.

hiroshima and nagasaki is famous for the atomic bombing damn idiots

[Albanez1970]

Dude, we just don't give a shit about the rest unless it opposes a treat...

do you get it, if not stay on your shit hole world and live us alone we do not need fuck head to teach us bull crap that we can care less of... it seem to me you have nothing better to do but fuck with other peoples business.

[MeganCarryx3]

I am from America, and I am sick and tired of all you people from everywhere else in the world is bashing us. Why can't you take a step back and look at the big picture. In every country around the world there are smart and dumb people. This interview shows just the dumb people in America. It must have just slipped their mind to interview people that actually pay attention to the world. So stop being hypocrites and stop stereotyping all of us Americans, it won't do us any good in the long run.

[confusion94]

holy shit these people are so fuckin stupid omg

[ferasbayern]

when u have stupid people like these , u can control any country

[dng4short1]

lmao nice...

[ferasbayern]

when u have stupid people like this u can control any country

[idiota115]

this is biased.

[troy328]

lol...texans...

[strijk2]

There have been programs that wanted to prove that there are people in the USA worth interviewing. Unfortunately, after a few episodes, they ran out of people to interview.

The only place to even try to find a decent conversation partner is in a bookstore or a Starbucks (Luckily, they go well together). Just avoid the slow, glassy-eyed types over at the 60's section and anytone carrying Apple products. Oh, wait, that doesn't leave many people...

[befranklintoo]

europeans are so culture that they would never find and speak with any American Intellectual. Because they only look and see what they what to see. Note a british accent. Where are the Aboriginal Mr brit culture?-

[jewfro2009]

being a patriotic, american born, 4.0 GPA high school student, i have to agree with some of the foreigners in saying that america is a nation of idiots.

[galkdgj]

even a kid that is 8 years old can say that they are idiots.

[jewfro2009]

I was merely establishing ethos as to not seem hypocritical you moron. Now go play in traffic.

[galkdgj]

number i can't get out of my house. number 2 there isnt really a lot of traffic where i live.

[jewfro2009]

Well do you promise to go and make friends with car bumpers as soon as possible?

[jewfro2009]

I was merely establishing ethos as to not seem hypocritical you moron. Now go play in traffic.

[galkdgj]

last time i tried it just made a the cars honk on me. I don't see why you had to call moron. I don't think i did anythink to attack you. As the way i look at it. Calling someone an insult will not get you any farther in life i suppose. And calling me an insult over the internet is sort of useless too. If you don't see what i mean, maybe you should go play in traffic. But deffending your own nation is something good. i agree. But you do what ever you want.

[iceteaguy]

Why not just agree that the people that interviewed were stupid and let him laugh at a country he doesn't live in.

[galkdgj]

i don't see anything wrong with that.

people judge if you had no idea.

number 2 even though i never said number one.

Why not? why not just let some thousands of people laugh at stupid people who seem like they knew things?

[jewfro2009]

i can see why the world hates us: rampant obesity, the largest percentage of oil consumption per year per capita, and a number of morons to last us an eternity. not to mention the conflicting religions and cultures. we are a greedy nation that has far too little concern for education, which i see as arogance to not learn about other cultures because too many american citizens believe others should be learning about US.

[clsnap2007]

waah move away!!!!

[galkdgj]

haaha. you make me laugh, yet what your saying is the truth. yet again, i'm not american so i shouldn't be saying anything, but just laugh at the video and think that the video should be a shame to america.

[jewfro2009]

of course editing was done to the film and intelligent answeres were not showed; that would disprove the point the show was trying to make. however, i do not think there should have been so many idiots found so easily, even in a country of 300,000,000. it makes me wonder how many more examples of this archetype could be found had the entire nation been polled in the same manner.

[ahtipeterson]

jes USA has plenty of scholars and intelegent people who are idiots. Look up Rick Mercer - Talking To Americans ...

[peanutbutterjelly76]

Ok I'm from the United States and this guy clearly edited out the smart answers. Almost nobody here is this stupid....and if they are, they're usually the ones who have straight A's but lack common sense. USA has plenty of idiots and plenty of scholars and intelegent people, like all countries.

[galkdgj]

sides of a triangle? 3!! omg. fucking idiots!

[gogitasan]

hahahahahah lol lol stupid fucks

[Antgne]

What is it they say: "No child left behind?" Maybe they should have left them behind.

[Antgne]

Hmmmm, thus Bush!

[NansenF310]

HAHA.. americans are stupid! don`t care if this is only a small percentage of the population, but no other country has more ignorant citizens than the US of A. IQ=68! well, you have the biggest army, but thats about it...suck at everything alse, EVERYTHING

[gregtestagent]

these people are hand picked, the questions and props given are made to trick these people. He pronounced Kofi Annan and "Coffee A-NAN," the map they use is pre-labeled, there are eight countries that begin with U in the 194 countries in the world. It seems unfair and stupid in itself.

[LeotheSun]

"How about United States of America?" Not to mention UK, Uganda, Uzbekistan..

I won't get tricked by the fake labels on the map anyway. You can't possibly find anyone in Europe believing the Australian continent is Iran.

How about "is star wars based on a true story?" and the guy nodded.

[gregtestagent]

Nothing is impossible, especially the fact that all people are ignorant of something if indeed most everything. If that were not so then why do we struggle at learning anything and everything? It is because we do not KNOW IT ALL. So please do not find yourself perfect by knowing only a little more than others.

[gangsterdrester]

We are going to whatever we can to keep America happy. We know what's best for us. That is good stuff. They did one asking Americans about Canada and it was just as bad if not worse.

[hudini4115]

LOL I love how they don't know the world map. Also they know its kentucky fried chicken and yet they don't know were KFC is from. "I tell you I don't know the answer but Im thinking." OMG how stupid do you have too be?!?!?!? ROFLMFAO.....

[sonnyche1]

You got us, the majority of our country is full of idiots. I dont what to say. There is no way an American reporter or comedian could go to another country and do the same thing. I mean , it would not be possible in another country to approach countless numbers of people on the street, ask them questions about politics, take all the dumb responses and edit them into a 10 minute piece. It would be impossible.

[thesmrt12004]

i am ashamed to live in this country

[AnimeMarten]

I agree with you, the whole time i was watching it i was like "OMFG! How can you NOT know that?!".

These people are just an insult to Americans.

Personally, i think this video is sort of racist....

[michellebbb23]

racist!? Ha. This video is not racist at all!

[XJordanMX]

wow i was unaware that Americans are a race ... geez

[blkhawk60]

Lol im 13 and i got all those question americans r dumb heres proof

[FUGod4Me]

I think Americans are so wrapped up in themselves they don't teach their children anything about the world around them. I can't believe there is a lady in this video who figured America won the Vietnam War, then she seconded guessed herself, and questioned if the U.S. was even involved in the war. These people should be ashamed of themselves, but I thank them for making me laugh. And thank you for posting it.

[FUGod4Me]

As a Canadian living near the U.S border, from a young age I was made aware of just how ignorant some Americans are of anything north of their border. I heard stories of how Americans would come here, in the middle of July, dressed as if they figured they would be confronted with a snow storm as soon as they crossed the 49th parallel. LOL

[Bleach10101]

holy crap there stupid. i knew all those and im 16

[poweerpuffgirl]

-How many sides does triangle have?

-Hmm, damn..four.

LMAO

[KingofdaWackos]

Welcome to da United States of Stupids, how may we help you!!!! BTW, there have been four World Wars, not three!!!

[QuickCheck345]

Well that's not very fair. Not all Americans are stupid. They just picked out some insanely retarded people >.> . I could go to a 1st grade class and ask how many sides a triangle has and they would get it. I think thats most kids in high school ot middle school would have got most of those questions right.

[QuickCheck345]

And how bout going to a place where not every single person sounds like a red-neck.

[Bleach10101]

thats right quickcheck you can find stupid people anywhere in the world maybe we should start going to all countries that say we're all stupid and do something like this and see what they think.

[djenyas]

thats true but in america theres just more stupid people than in the rest of the world..

[Bobmatic]

What religion do buddhist monks follow?

It's Buddhism! DUH! How did they miss that?

[justinvt]

Good Americans spotted that

[kvandepoel]

hahahahahahaaaahahha

[vram]

hmmm....I don't know what would give people that idea? ROFL
