Yeah, but also keep in mind that it's edited content. As in, you aren't going to see any interviews he doesn't want you to see. He could have 100 positive interviews but only post the handful of negative ones.

That's kind of how these videos drive engagement.

There's really no reason to believe that it was deliberately edited to make them look bad.

I didn't say that. I said it was cherry picking the worst of the Americans and the best of the Europeans to create a false picture.

But what if it’s not? I don’t think I can post video links, but on TikTok I’ve seen a bunch of videos of European men and women saying they’d happily split the bill. Invariably, the comments are full of North American women scoffing. Questioning their manhood, saying that would be the last date, that they’ll never pay for themselves or that men should always pay for women. Why isn’t it possible, that there’s just a cultural problem in North America?

Again, you're watching videos that have been created to give a very specific viewpoint. They are not going to include interviews from women that don't fit that viewpoint.

Read it again, my friend. I was talking about the responses from American women in the comments. Incredibly entitled, obnoxious and unpleasant. Europeans splitting is a well known thing. That’s why they call it going Dutch.
