So much vulgarity. Can be fun but not so much if it's directed at you. Compared to Argentinian Spanish which sounds like Italian but even more musical and lovely.

Sucker born every minute.

I'm American and can't argue with that but for me it depends on WHICH American accent. I think the most common complaint is the LOUDNESS like if abroad you can hear a group of them blocks away.

Native American? You're indigenous? There is no Spanish Spanish. It has many, many variations. Speaking of which the most rude Spanish speakers I've ever encountered were in Madrid. Like most nationalities (excepting the French) tend to be appreciative if you're even trying though butchering their language, but I kept running into people there basically BARKING at me. Correcting yes but in deeply rude ways. Come to think of it most of the problems with them were about my pronunciation (not speaking with THEIR accent) rather than the actual words and sentences (which at my level were always simple).

I hadn't thought to include non native English speakers in my thinking but I do like many of those. Colombian accented English comes to mind. A related topic is which foreign languages do we enjoy hearing. For me French (not Quebecois) , Brazilian Portuguese, and Argentinian Spanish are some favorites. Among the most annoying to me are Vietnamese and European Portuguese which sounds like Russian but actual Russian sounds better. Not a big fan of Mexican Spanish either.

I don't exactly have a favorite. I do enjoy deep Southern U.S. accents and Australian ones though I don't know about regional variations there. I also find posh British accents amusing. Sometimes hearing new accents can be painful. On a move to the midwest, I found that to be so, but over time I started to put on a fake one to fit in. Hard to know about our own accents, but I haven't had even one person in my entire life tell me they loved hearing my accent and ask for me to speak more so they could enjoy it. I do know I am easily pegged as American though. A funny story about that riding a train in Italy as a 15 year old talking albeit rapidly and with much slang to my also American teen friend, there were two Italian young ladies listening to us. Eventually one said, we're on our way to London and we think we know English, but we don't understand a word you said, so now we're worried!

It's a fact that Scots and the Scottish diaspora has been amazing.

Of course he's bluffing.

Clearly there are maga / Fox News types that have reactionary responses to even discussing such things that are in the chart. They tend to believe in "free speech" like giving voice to Nazis and Putin lovers but if it's something they disagree with or feel threatened by, they tend to change their tune.

I wasn't speaking for all or most Americans at all. I was speaking about my specific cultural background which is quite different from what is on that chart. I suppose along with white bread we would describe the values in that chart, as WASPY. Not necessarily in derision but in recognition of differences from that dominant culture, which has indeed been dominant, but less so over time.

Weird post. Different cultures do indeed have radically different values. All people are the same in the sense that all people have cultural influences, I'll give you that, but they are NOT the same cultural influences.

I wouldn't say better or worse, but black culture has indeed contributed massively to American culture.

Calling all that whiteness is provocative but I would agree after reading that chart that it does indeed well represent the historic dominant USA culture. However there have been a lot of changes and more coming though a significant portion of Americans feel threatened by that. For one example on the bland is better point Mexican style salsa had outsold ketchup in the US for many years already. Personally I have very white skin but was raised with quite different values on many of the chart points to the point where bland white bread etc. was seen as an insult.

About the actual for trans inmates I would say providing hormones is reasonable but surgery isn't. I'm not aware of a specific Harris position on this issue. If she had one would it even matter for anything but federal prisons? As usual fascist racist criminally corrupt Putin loving Trump is happy to demagogue any hot button issue that gets his mouth breather cult all hot and bothered.

Sounds like you're projecting your personal experience to the rest of the entire world. Also -- TMI.

That will be news to those in same sex marriages.

I know you're not American and may be exclused for lack of American civics education but inciting an attempted insurrection is completely disqualifying. You're acting aa if he is a normal candidate and this is about normal policy differences. No. It is about democracy vs. autocracy. The Republicans standing with Harris are indeed choosing country, constitution, and democracy. I do realize though this will fall on deaf ears and you will continue to simp for Trump and Putin.

Go ahead and show the world what you are. Nobody's stoppin' youse buddy.

Bull. Shame on you.

Non citizens can't and don't vote. Latinos are not a democratic party monolith. So you're spreading misinformation.

Immigration is a legitimate issue. Both parties should work together to fix problems as happened in the bill that sleazeball demagogue Trump had killed so.that he could run on fear mongering garbage like Hannibel Lechter and racist attacks on legal Haitian migrants.

Hannibal Lechter!

So mostly jaywalkers then.

250,000 in a company? You proved my point for the vast majority of potential retired expats.

Americans love to see celebrities crash.
