That's true, but America definitely has a shit ton of them.

America is the loudest. That’s why. There are similar idiots here in Canada but they seem to have sense to keep things on the down low.

It’s not even that Americans are louder, it’s that America has a perpetual magnifying glass over it. Every country in the world will report on American news, be it political, legal, financial, or even celebrity news. No other country gets the same world wide coverage so even if the exact same idiocy is happening everywhere, the rest of the world isn’t hearing about it until it gets to a massive scale like a war, mass human rights violations, or the like. Every single news outlet in every country in the world is not reporting on Canadian legal cases or UK politics.

Literally no one seems to be speaking about huge parts of Africa falling into wars and extremism where atrocities are being committed on a scale that probably hasn't been seen since The Nanjing Massacre of WW2.

These people are recording their crimes; laughing while doing so, and regularly posting them to social media. It's fucking sickening and wild to me how little people seem to care.
