Frustrating to watch

[freerider258]

Why would pointing out that the stupidity of people is not contained to one region of the world make me feel better? Hell, I'd be happier if it were only in one spot, it could be fixed then. As it is, the majority of the world is ignorant and is happy being so. I just have personal knowledge of West Africa, so that is the example given. I work within my personal knowledge, although I'm quite sure if you decided to go to any given country, you can find the local nook of ignorance there too.

Yea, but seriously, was that necessary?
Yes, you will find ignorant people everywhere you go, but you don't need to call out a specific section of the world, drawing great attention to it by inferring they are the most ignorant.

Yes, because then I would be like everybody else in this thread pointing at America. And where would we be then?

No double standards. I said it was about as good, I never said they were the most ignorant. You inferred that meaning yourself, I did nothing to put it on a pedestal above the others. If anything, by saying it was about as good, I said that the video shown was worse. If anything was inferred, it was that the video showed people worse than the example I gave.

I have to laugh when Americans (via the Internet) compliment my husband on his English.

I am somewhat amused, when I (an engineer with English as third language) have to correct phrases that some of my customer-facing American colleagues come up with, and figure out how to say what they mean better, and in grammatically and syntactically correct English
