#like whenever we are discussing the problem of heat related death in america and how AC/central air should be a human right

am i the only one who gets slightly irritated (read: irrationally irritated) when americans are discussing american issues amongst themselves and some european has to come in like “WELL ACKULLY all you dumb americans are wrong and stupid and also fat cant forget to mention that and LET ME TELL YOU why your experience is Wrong” like please...shut up....please god...

#just like its annoying when americans think everything is about them its ALSO annoying when europeans think their experience is superior #like whenever we are discussing the problem of heat related death in america and how AC/central air should be a human right #theres always someone who has to be like #'ACKTUALLY youre stupid and fat and selfish if you use AC typical americans just open your windows to keep cool!!' #meanwhile they live somewhere temperate and cool and have never dealt with the extreme temps that can be common in many parts of america #please if youre european and you think you got something smart to say about how americans live you most likely dont know the half of it #and try talking to us instead of just being like lol typical dumb americans!! doing dumb things!! #and why do they always gotta bring up weight too when they are losing a debate with an american #every single time its always the 'well...YOURE A FAT AMERICAN!!" when we actually bring up good points #i guess clownery knows no borders or nationality #anyway i woke up and made the mistake of reading the comments in an article discussing AC as a right in oregon #after 100 people died from heat related death #theres always someone who has to be a purposely obtuse little SHIT #rant cw #and dont even get me started on how some europeans are very purposely obtuse when discussing racial issues in america #dont EVEN get me started #also theres the fact that with climate change related heat waves becoming more common EVERYWHERE #youd think it would be more like yeah we've been having heat problems here in europe too this is how we cope with it #instead of ...whatever THIS SHIT IS #(also a lot of our buildings esp lower income cheap buildings arent made to withstand super extreme temps for long periods of time) #(because they were either A. built in a MUCH cooler time B. built with a 'fuck it we gotta flip houses' mindset in mind so they are Cheap) #(or the heat reducing measures in old buildings were enough 150 years ago but they arent enough now)
