>Like, at least most of the Asians
Oh, you haven't came to the UC system. My roommate frequently says that the Chinese system of government is better, and how much better Asia and Europe is compared to the US.
Why the fuck do people come to the US if they hate it so much?
>>58701388

Sorry Ameribro.
I get triggered when I see 16 year old English girls telling American adults why they should vote for Bernie Sanders.
There's kind of this idea that we have to be 100% politically correct to every group at all times with the exceptions of France and the USA.

You are absolutely incorrect. Europeans, Asians, Latinos and even Africans travel here in great hordes just to study. A vast world exists outside your flat, Pierre. Open your eyes to it. Our higher education system is second to none. Of course Europeans would want to take advantage of it. As if they don't take enough advantage of us already....

Actually, the rice farmers, meaing the VC got rekt, the Tet offensive took too much out of them, the ones who actually gave the US problems where the NVA, who were a legit military supplied with at the time current gen jets and the most advanced AA missiles the Soviets had to offer, as well as tanks and tons of modern other weaponry.
Same thing happened in Afghanistan, durkas had stingers and shit supplied by the US, even most of their AKs were US supplied through third party middle men, rather than home made or captured from the Soviets.
I know I'm sperging out, but this shit makes me autistic.
Funny part is, the US is entirely at fault for their failure in Vietnam, they had no grasp of the situation and their doctrine was completely retarded as a result, losing the war as a result, giving the rest of the world endless banter material as a result. They could have won if they had actually committed to it like the NVA did, but at the end of the day they didn't, making the whole war a pointless and costly gesture.

I do my best, I don't listen to american music, I don't watch american movies and I don't read contemporary american books. Besides I do my best to avoid using english, learning as many languages as I can. Unfortunately, the younger generations are getting stupider, so I'm a dying breed.

>Yeah you may have more minorities, but the degree of segregation,
I live in NYC segregation is pretty much self segregation. Non-Western Euro immigrants choose to live around people like them. I'm white and live in a mostly Hispanic immigrant neighborhood but a lot of whites have moved in including a German I talk with as well as French, British, Slavs, etc.

Agreed on everything else, though. The US is a great country, and recognizing it has flaws is all well and good, but denouncing it and trying to dismantle it while actually depending/living on it is just plain stupid.

Read more. The lingua franca was French until the 20th century (hence the phrase lingua franca you dumb cunt). Now what could have possibly happened in the 20th century to cause this shift? Could it be the power of the British empire? No. They were losing all their territories at that time. What could if have possibly been???

>>58719941
Do you honestly think that the lingua franca became English because a few elites in India and Africa happened to speak it?
English became the lingua franca in the mid-20th century because that's when the USA became the preeminent economy in the first world. People wanted to learn it to make business connections with us, first and foremost. Having the legacy of the British Empire helped, but that was by no means the main factor.

I hate those kind of mexicans, I mean it ok to feel proud of your origins, but it's no excuse to burn american flags. You gotta respect the rules and traditions of the your host country. And most of this fags aren't even mexicans most being decedents of the hard working immigrants that got there heads fucked up by liberal media.

The fact that so many books still name the Beatles as "the greatest or most significant or most influential" rock band ever only tells you how far rock music still is from becoming a serious art. Jazz critics have long recognized that the greatest jazz musicians of all times are Duke Ellington and John Coltrane, who were not the most famous or richest or best sellers of their times, let alone of all times. Classical critics rank the highly controversial Beethoven over classical musicians who were highly popular in courts around Europe. Rock critics are still blinded by commercial success. The Beatles sold more than anyone else (not true, by the way), therefore they must have been the greatest. Jazz critics grow up listening to a lot of jazz music of the past, classical critics grow up listening to a lot of classical music of the past. Rock critics are often totally ignorant of the rock music of the past, they barely know the best sellers. No wonder they will think that the Beatles did anything worthy of being saved.
In a sense, the Beatles are emblematic of the status of rock criticism as a whole: too much attention paid to commercial phenomena (be it grunge or U2) and too little to the merits of real musicians. If somebody composes the most divine music but no major label picks him up and sells him around the world, a lot of rock critics will ignore him. If a major label picks up a musician who is as stereotyped as can be but launches her or him worldwide, your average critic will waste rivers of ink on her or him. This is the sad status of rock criticism: rock critics are basically publicists working for major labels, distributors and record stores. They simply highlight what product the music business wants to make money from.
There's literally no hate being expressed in the OP pic. Americans just CANNOT deal with criticism regarding their country sometimes.
The one Person complained about incongruence, and OP immediately starts sperging out. Why are Americans so defensive?
>>58722056
Not him, but he was talking about the anecdotal evidence from his 1 week stay in my home city combined with his secondary knowledge gleaned from our media.
>>58722262
Thanks for proving my point, but I wasn't trying to play the victim, I was simply stating fact.
>>58722307
I'd say it's partly down to the amount of bands that have said they were directly influenced by the Beatles.
>>58722518
Hopefully, one not-too-distant day, there will be a clear demarcation between a great musician like Tim Buckley, who never sold much, and commercial products like the Beatles. At such a time, rock critics will study their rock history and understand which artists accomplished which musical feat, and which simply exploited it commercially.
Beatles' "Aryan" music removed any trace of black music from rock and roll. It replaced syncopated African rhythm with linear Western melody, and lusty negro attitudes with cute white-kid smiles.
Contemporary musicians never spoke highly of the Beatles, and for good reason. They could never figure out why the Beatles' songs should be regarded more highly than their own. They knew that the Beatles were simply lucky to become a folk phenomenon (thanks to "Beatlemania", which had nothing to do with their musical merits). That phenomenon kept alive interest in their (mediocre) musical endeavours to this day. Nothing else grants the Beatles more attention than, say, the Kinks or the Rolling Stones. There was nothing intrinsically better in the Beatles' music. Ray Davies of the Kinks was certainly a far better songwriter than Lennon & McCartney. The Stones were certainly much more skilled musicians than the 'Fab Four'. And Pete Townshend was a far more accomplished composer, capable of entire operas such as "Tommy" and "Quadrophenia"; not to mention the far greater British musicians who followed them in subsequent decades or the US musicians themselves who initially spearheaded what the Beatles merely later repackaged to the masses.
