Europeans don't produce anything of note.
They watch American TV, buy tickets to American movies, listen to American singers and then in the next breath tell us how much culture they have.
It's pretty funny

mostly true
Football is already American, though?
Good. This sport could do with more of this. No idea why MLS doesn't just go full American on it. Would be way more entertaining to watch.
>>67140568
They constantly depend on our financial and military support and rely on us to lead the international community, so why would they be mad about getting our culture, too?
>>67140482
one of the greatest things about football is that matches actually start on time. I find it amazing, but none of the American sports start on time, they only begin to show presentations and a bunch of crap, with minutes of delay at even that. This "opening ceremony" better to fuck with that tradition.
>>67141117

Care to elaborate? How is it that European culture dominates America?
Why is Europe so obsessed with the USA?
>>67141359
I think this Brit unironically thinks that because America spawned from England that we're "dominated" by European culture. What a reach.

It's fact, lads. Real culture is what makes up the fabric of a society, and USA's is undoubtedly and overwhelmingly European in ways I explained in my post. When talking about culture and America people always bring up pop culture, which is a shallow and disposable form of 'culture' that is mere entertainment and a money making industry, and in reality apart from things like the occasional American movie most of the world couldn't give a fuck about the US.
>>67141495
you're in a sports board talking about shallow disposable pop culture.
>>67141506
Sports are ancient culture.
>>67141495

You can't fool me, I've been on this board longer than 10 minutes.
>>67140568
>American culture
The yoghurt I had for lunch had more culture than your entire country.
>>67141534
Don't get me wrong, I'll be the first to admit that I personally ride America's dick every day, but in the wider sense I'm the exception rather than the norm. I couldn't even find anyone to go to the new Star Wars film with me last year. Literally no one in my family or my small group of friends gave a fuck, and this country is probably regarded as the one that consumes American pop culture more than any other.
of course america has a culture, any bunch of people that stick together long enough will develop a culture of their own, just check this site, even this board
if it's, overall, a good culture or not is another matter and

No, it's usually some shitty performance art bullshit by some respective local (wherever the final takes place) performance dancers or something like that
But nobody pays attention to it and it can be easily ignored.
What is she going to sing anyway?
If she would somehow be able to sing the CL anthem and not completely butcher it, then and only then, it may end up not being a complete disaster
But I doubt she can sing a trilingual song that is hard as fuck to sing.

It's true though.
Now remember that in the last superbowl Coldplay, a British artist played.

This is a 'murica fuck yeah' thread. Facts, logic and reason are useless.
>>67150668
You realize Russian propaganda on 4chan isn't reality, right?
Russians would've had their asses slaughtered immediately if they didn't have American-supplied weapons and tanks. Or if the Americans and British didn't open the Western front in Europe. Or if the Americans weren't handling the Japs near-entirely own their own.

It's really embarrassing how Europeans still haven't gotten over losing their global importance.
>>67150717
After whom?
>>67150735
>American-supplied weapons and tanks
At the time they started getting the largest amount of supplies (later 42, early 43), Russians were already winning the war. Without lend-lease a lot more Russians would die and the war would take longer, but they would still win.
>Western front
Irrelevant.
>Japan
Irrelevant outside of China and the Pacific.

Because the ruskies were so afraid of the japs
Learn real history nigger
>>67150826
I never said the US will be hegemon forever? It certainly is now, though. If you acknowledge that no power stays in charge forever, why are you still so upset that Europe has lost its hegemony?
>>67150879
The Japs would never attack Russia because frankly they had jack shit to gain from it. They didn't know about the massive oil reserves in Siberia yet back then.
>>67150796
>Russians would have won the war entirely on their own
It's hard to believe you could be this stupid. Where did you learn your history, exactly?
>>67150916
Virtually every respected historian agrees m8. The fact that Germany lasted as long as it did was close to being a miracle considering how completely outmatched they were.
>>67150989
>Virtually every respected historian agrees m8
no they don't
>>67150989
No respected historian outside of Russia thinks that Russia won the war on its own, dude. Academia has a pretty anti-American slant and even they don't go that far.
>>67151059
It's actually pretty much an academic consensus now that Germany would lose the war no matter what.
>>67151059
To add: Russian (and Soviet) historians tend to claim that the lend-lease was irrelevant, this is obviously incorrect. American historians tend to claim it was the decisive point of the war, which is also incorrect.
>>67151114
>It's actually pretty much an academic consensus now that Germany would lose the war no matter what.
Then why are you giving all the credit to Russia? Because they threw a bunch of bodies at them?
>American historians tend to claim it was the decisive point of the war
Since when? What historians are you actually talking about? So far, I have no reason to believe you didn't just get all of your information from Russia fetishists on /pol/.

1. USA: lend-lease, fighting successfully on two fronts
2. British: intelligence, stubbornness
3. Russia: wasting lives
USA should've just taken Russia at the end of the war. Big mistake not to
