It's very appropriate for the UK to be just over 50% evil by a hair. Clearly this is a strong mandate, the will of the people has been expressed

Grape posted:lol at euros smugging over their own continent when you could probably convince them of whatever in Asia, Africa and Latin America Yeah, laughing at Americans for not knowing geography is one thing, but it's not like most Europeans can place any states on a blank map of the US except California and maybe Florida. At least anecdotally, the average European knows where Tennessee is about as well as the average American knows where Austria is. And also why should they? It's a part of the world most people will go to maybe once or twice in their life. It'd be like some Peruvian in Iquitos laughing because you don't know where the Urubamba and Amazon rivers intersect. OTOH I had dinner with my cousin's family once when we were like 15 and the word "Maryland" was written out on the menu, and my same-aged cousin said "What's a Marry-Land?". She lived in North Carolina. Similar anecdote, when we lived in Luxembourg, we also had a close Tunisian friend try to send us a package. She went to the post office and they refused to mail her package because we only gave her a 4-digit ZIP code and the post office worker was adamant that every location in France needed a 5 digit postcode to be sent. Our friend left and got mad at us for only giving her an "incomplete" 4 digit ZIP code to our address and that she'd have to go back and wait again in line half an hour to send a letter internationally. Luxembourg uses 4 digit ZIP codes and is not, in fact, a part of France. This friend had been around several countries in Europe before and was well-educated and spoke English, French, Arabic, had an engineering degree, etc. Oh and I forgot the ending to that story. She went back and sent the package and insisted that four digits was correct. obviously it never arrived. Guaranteed some postal office worker saw a four digit zip code going to Luxembourg, France, figured it would never arrive anyway so they might as well steal it and eat all the baklava for themselves rather than let those corrupt French postal workers steal a package that wood never reach its destination anyway.

A Buttery Pastry posted:The European analogue to US states are German federal states, which have a similar average population and distribution. Like, the bottom third of American states are the equivalent of one of the Baltic countries, and they're not even ostensibly sovereign so they can have a beef with Russia, and even a big-ish state like Tennessee is smaller than half the states of the EU. Yeah, that might be fair. Now think about how many Swiss or French you'd have to ask to label a map of Germany and list any state besides Bavaria on it. And they wouldn't be able to, and who cares? It's not any more relevant to a typical Parisian than it is for an American knowing which country is Austria.

SlothfulCobra posted:I bet most Europeans still wouldn't be able to tell you where Lodomeria is. Wow, not bad at all. Way better than I'd have guessed. OTOH I guess also the ubiquity of American media makes those names show up in German or British people's lives a lot more often than like, Thuringia, shows up in the US news or media. Not to move goalposts too much.
