Why are Europeans referred to on the internet as “Europoors?” When I am in Europe I perceive a relatively highly standard of living, infrastructure development and public safety. I do not see many Europoors.

ofc it’s bc you’re poor in freedom, Murtaza

I was wondering about this. What’s the thesis

Raw income charts show US being wealthier, including median. Also specific statistics such as living space sqft. The usual stereotype is that EU outdoor (ie. public) environments are better but US indoor environments are better.

In my own experience, EU outdoor envs are definitely higher quality, it's hard to judge the indoor side because any single person's sample will be biased.

Makes perfect sense…I suppose it’s all to ones taste but I’d take better public space over private space. American style of life is lonely and isolating which probably contributes to less wellbeing and mental health

Oh yeah I meant why can’t I remove the lid when I’m here, it’s a pollution thing makes sense.

Agreed on post WWII American victory lapping. I do feel a sense of superabundance in parts of America although it’s also mixed with more extreme poverty and insecurity

But more “seriously” I think it’s a dual thesis

- Rank n file ‘Murica Americans like mogging Europeans about WWII + post-war prosperity/power arcs in the global world order

- American elites on the Internet like doing that too but church it up w nerd dunks about GDPR and other perceived/real restrictions
