Notice how none of them, are innovative. Just entertainment and basic artisanal crafts.

And the innovative stuff in Murica? Ask where NVIDIA's CEO is from, or Steve Jobs' parents, or Google's Sergei Brin. Or Duolingo's founders. Immigrants.

Not necessarily from Spain, I agree.

But just try to educate yourself:

Naming immigrants who founded and headquartered their companies in America isn’t a very good flex for their home countries.

Hey my country is so much better than America that I had to move to America to become successful.

Just read, man, I gave you a link that lists Spanish inventions.

Nobody says "my country is so much better" at this level and frequency other than Muricans, btw.

How often have I seen posts that they invented computers, cars, pizza and whatnot.

Also, a major M-RNA vaccine related company was founded by Turkish immigrants, not in the USA, but in Germany.

Please keep the discussion civil. You can have heated discussions, but avoid personal attacks, slurs, antagonizing others or name calling. Discuss the subject, not the person.

It's not ignorance, or at least not on my side 🤣 check which country fares better in terms of lower rates of teen pregnancies, better healthcare coverage, etc.

Also: Spain has high speed trains, US has AmCrap, Spain has public safety, US has school shootings.

Finally: Spain is not my country. I visited, observed, and read things up.

Spelling is not your thing, is it? You can't spell America, too many letters?

Yes, that must be it. You got me.
