Josuke is definitely number one, with maybe Jolene if I'm willing to risk crime happening. Jonathan would be very polite but boring, Joseph is too high energy all the time and he runs the risk of saying some poo poo that makes the whole rest of the afternoon super awkward, Jotaro is out for obvious reasons, and Giorno's a total wet blanket. I could maybe hang with Johnny but he's super abrasive and the area I live in isn't super wheelchair accessible. Gappy is a maybe but he kind of has bad vibes. And I'm not with it enough to hang with Dragona, but if I got the chance I'm sure we'd have some fun conversations, while Jodio seems like we'd both be happier for me to keep my distance while being in the same room at a family gathering

Hanging with Jodio would be hella fun. You'd just be like "drat, I'm thirsty, I might go grab a coke" and he'd show up with a McDonalds refill machine 5 minutes later and then 3 minutes after that realise there's none of the syrup in it.

Being a real estate tycoon from New York, did Joseph ever run for president?

If my passing familiarity with social media is any indication, the most American Jojo is the teenager that hates the police and encourages his friends to be gay and do crimes. Except, y'know, he actually does crime.

The most American characters ever are Senator Armstrong and Funny Valentine. Anyone going against either are the least American ever by default.

Joseph is your prototypical American Alt-Righter, because he's inexplicably concealed carrying an assault rifle in a place that has no known danger and verifiably hangs out with Nazis.

I mean, there was a full-on fascist and anti-semitic movement of "America First" people who wanted to keep the US out of the war, because they liked the Nazis and what they were doing. Dr Seuss did a lot of political cartoons about it.

Joseph demonstrably hates racists, and all his interactions with Nazis are either loving with them Bugs Bunny style, or barely tolerating their presence as an ally of convenience when dealing with literal Ubermenschen. Even Stroheim only gets grudging respect for his sheer willingness to dismember himself to help clean up messes HE causes.

Also by the point in time that Battle Tendency takes place, the members of the German American Bund (i.e. American Nazis) are frequently getting beaten up by jewish mobsters in the streets of New York, so yeah I don't think Joseph is down with Nazis outside of stopping the Pillar Men. Caeser Zeppeli, on the other hand...

It always seemed to me like part 2 drew a lot of inspiration from Indiana Jones, and the role the Nazis play in it makes perfect sense from that angle: They discover some supernatural power/entities beyond their ability, gently caress around a bunch, and find out, several times. Because of this, there's a lot of Nazis around helping to drive the plot with their arrogant bumbling. But because it's Jojo, anyone who gets more than a certain amount of attention has to get their big awesome dramatic moment(s). Unfortunately this means that despite being the lead rep of a minor antagonist group, and despite Joseph's own personal feelings and attitudes, the comic itself (ie Araki) gives Stroheim a few special cool-pose, highly detailed panels and cheer moments, and as a result their (mostly) antagonistic role in the story gets muddied e: Now Caesar? Yeah that guy's PNF no doubt in my mind
