Is there _any_ parent here who doesn't neglect their kids in one way or another?
Maybe I should rephrase that: Is there _any_ americans in the world who has set up their life to not feel sorry for themselves?
Edit: Re-rephrasing

Coincidence I_don't_understand_your_post. But I am well aware that you think I'm a stupid redneck so this should come as no surprise to you.

I myself would say no, based on the typical characterization of a redneck. I am not an uneducated white farm laborer, I do not carry a NRA membership card, I am not conservative, and I am not in love with my cousin. I do, however, have a thing for horsepower. Seems this attribute has some people jumping the gun.

Thank you. I have so far enjoyed the site very much. I anticipate much more laughter and insult and filth to come!

I know, it could have done with a third and fourth rephrasing. And I don't think you're stupid, but you are iconic for a lifestyle that is closely related to low intelligence. Let's blame geography in your case.
I have always been puzzled by the american paradox of combining 'eat my horsepower FUCK YEA!' with 'waaah, life is cruel, and I'll sit here and mourn and whine instead of solving this problem I made for myself'.
Which is a pattern that has been repeated what feels like hundreds of times on this forum, so I feel it is an american trait. See your TV guide for more examples.

there are no victims, only volunteers, I think is his meaning
It's amusing to hear these sentiments from the continent that twice imploded in collective suicide over the last hundred years and exported that mindset all over the globe.
But at least they don't whine about it.

I just read this again, and I really feel it is a pretty stupid comment, but I could be wrong. Why is the sentiment amusing? How is my position related to collective suicide? How is the mindset of collective suicide exported from here?
And how does this in any way influence the relevance of my observation, beyond removing focus from it?
Important questions.

coincidence, you should never mention usa in a negative light as compared to europe, or mugtoe will have to invoke godwin's law on himself.
and then he'll describe your mother as being overweight.

She is, though. So he'd be right about that.

True rednecks don't whine. True victims never stop. We've got lots of both, but they are distinctly different folks.
How is a mother yearning for her children a uniquely American event?
Whatsamatterforyou Coincidence? Did the ugly Americans beat you up and steal your lunch money? Every few months, you figure out a way to flex your anti Americanism agenda which ever way possible, even if it's irrational and totally unrelated to the issue being discussed.
Quit your ankle biting and whining and put together a coherent list of grievances in a separate thread, and we'll discuss it.

Yes, I am whining. I miss my children very much and I love them even more. If this makes me an iconic whining redneck, so be it.

I try not to assume those typical generalizations of people. If the modern world chooses to associate the terms "redneck" and "stupid", then they are perhaps very generic people who agree with the accepted stereotype.

Quite stereotypical that you would deny your stereotype by stereotyping those not of your stereotype in classic stereotypical indignation.

Important questions.
you made generalizations about americans based on geography. any definitive statement about euros makes just as much sense as saying "Americans are..."
And making note of the repeated catastrophes on the European continent over the last hundred years in light of that observation is not incongruous.
