Why do uptight Americans always go straight for “we saved your arse in WWII” whenever they feel the slightest bit offended someone riffed their country a tiny bit.
Oh? The greatest credible threat to the world? Not saying that dropping two nukes on the country that invaded and raped or killed uncountable numbers of people is heroic, but without us and the lend lease, Europe was fucking done for.
Also, none of us say arse.
Thirdly, we fucking did save your ass in ww2. Also in ww1. I’m literally never the ugly American in public, I’ve had Turkish taxi drivers in German ask me why I want to go to the American army base because I’m so not that person.
You wouldn’t be assuming that everyone on Lemmy is American, would you? Because I lost my shit over that too.
I’m Dutch myself so nope, not assuming so XD
Nevertheless, as a European, it is my continental duty to shit on Americans, which is (partially) why I made the meme :P

Hold the fucking phone bud. You can shit on America all you want, but don’t. Think you can shit on Americans all you want.
It was Americans that saved you all in ww2. We are mostly good and decent people.

Jokes aside, it was Canada that liberated the Netherlands. And they took in the Dutch royal family as well. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Canada–Netherlands_relations?useskin=vector
It’s actually quite a beautiful story to read about, for those who are interested.
That’s why we named the quintessential canadian winter warming move after them, the dutch oven.

Nationalism is a bitch.

But give credit where it’s due.
