America isn't even a democracy itself, let alone some sort of force for spreading democracy around the world. e: That said, it's still fun to root for in sports and making fun of Canadians is important.

BlitzkriegOfColour posted:The British had the most settlers because Britain was a bigger stinkhole than all the other places in Europe. The story of colonists leaving England isn't one of Enlightened Europeans exploring to spread their beneficence with the dirty savage, it's the story of people who were sick of smelling poop everywhere they went, and being held down by their society, trying to escape it. The argument is not that Britain was enlightened or otherwise, simply that they were responsible for the creation of the United States in its existing form. Hence that if the USA gets to claim any good done by the modern German or Japanese states as its own accomplishment, then any good done by the United States is really just an accomplishment of Great Britain. The fact that Britain was full of poo poo both literally and figuratively actually just strengthens the reductio ad absurdum.
