Which European nations consider their culture superior to others?

Dear lord. Are the results in proportion to how shitty and fucked up their cultures really are?

White people bad!

Greece? Lmfao

Hilariously, the results seem completely in reverse proportion to reality..

Don't point your finger until you see some data on how many Americans think American culture is superior to others'.

I like Greek food. And the antiquities, of course.

That said, there's not a nation on that list that the rest of the planet would not be better off without.

Just saying.

These are like Europe's version of red states, right?

C’mon - moussaka isn’t THAT good.

Greece is known to have a superiority complex. Cradle of Western civilization, birthplace of democracy, etc.

r6 What's Slovakia ever done to you?

I think it is obvious that a lot of the respondents lied...

R6 wow, that's super racist. I'm sure that you wouldn't think twice about saying that out loud about a brown country, sick fuck.

Romania?

R9 I mean, they're not wrong though. People are still using the inventions from their cultural zenith 2,400 years ago. Kind of a testament to their culture's superiority, but I almost forgot that whites are EVIL!

Culture is not a nation's economy, politics, or military strength. Nice to see that these countries have a high regard for their culture, regardless of our opinion.

Only 26% in Sweden? I don't believe that for a second.

I get why Greece would think so, considering the lasting impact of ancient Greek culture. Georgia's self-importance is hilarious though.

So does this mean that having no pride in one's culture is something to be proud of? And having pride in one's culture is something to be ashamed of?

Russia? I guess they are proud of the culture of drunks and whores.

R18 Yes and yes. Globalism doesn't like borders.

R19, like Comrade Putin said, Russian whores are the best.

chauvinism

/ˈʃəʊv(ɪ)nɪz(ə)m noun

exaggerated or aggressive patriotism. "public opinion was easily moved to chauvinism and nationalism"

r17 To be fair they did invent Wine which is frankly far more use to most people than Plato.

I don't see Mexico on the list.

Some major delusions on that list.

[quote]Spaniards are the least likely to say their culture is superior to others.

Which is probably why it is such a fabulous place to go and to live.

It's interesting to see major European nations with vast cultural legacies and impact like France, Spain and Britain take a comparatively modest and rational assessment of their impact. France is particularly surprising.

R27 France has always been the world's little bitch.

R27, I'd like to see the questions and how they were asked in each country. The question might've been framed differently in each country, e.g. national pride vs. impact on other countries vs. history.

France has been taught to hate their own culture because it is based in western liberalism.

The immigrants don’t like that, so the French people have rejected the enlightenment for political correctness.

R16

Once again, their leaders have brainwashed them into believing PoMo bullshit.

They reject their culture because it offends the immigrants living on welfare.

These results are hilarious. I’m surprised about Italy

[R20] Nail on head. Notice how only desirable Western countries are harangued in this manner? Liberal democracies with openness to immigration and foreigners are ironically condemned as being insular, xenophobic and bigoted. The U.S. is BY FAR the country that takes in the most immigrants in the world. BY FAR. I believe we accept more immigrants than all the other countries of the world combined. Yet rich and powerful countries like China and Japan are not looked upon as being xenophobic or lacking "diversity" - because globalist know they can't sell their bullshit in those places.

‚‘If you’re so smart, why aren’t you rich....?‘

R16 Sweden is home to smug liberal self-debasement, where you prove your superiority by pretending to feel inferior. Complex.

Modern Greeks are not the same people as ancient Greeks. Different stock.

Don't forget that same-sex relations were considered normal in ancient Greece.

Bosnians are insufferable. Huge superiority complex. Almost as bad as the Swedes.

Swedes are quite laid-back and friendly, in my experience. Norwegians can be prickly. Danish are lovely. Dutch are arrogant and condescending. Austrians are just cunts. CUNTS.

I've been to Bosnia. The people were lovely.

I wished I had visited Sarajevo, however. Maybe after Corona is over...

The Bosnians and Swedes I knew were in the U.S. some one generation, some longer.

Bulgarians seem to suffer from some kind of mass delusion in their population. It honestly made me laugh out loud.

I'm not surprised at Romania being up there, as some consider themselves a Latin country surrounded by a sea of Slavs. Unfortunately, most of Europe mainly associates them with the negative stereotypes of gypsies (Romani).

Bucharest has some appalling architecture and a very sad street dog problem, but the countryside is pretty.

Those countries have the least to be proud of. Talk about shitholes!

If Americans knew anything about world history they'd understand the Greek response. Most Americans cannot even find Greece on a map. Tragic.

R45, Greece's shape always reminded me an outstretched hand. That's how I remembered it anyhow.

Excellent food, marvelous history.

R46 and only 173 people dead of the Covid in Greece.

They're doing something right.

R2 = This.

Racist asshole.

Good for Greece. Small country with some economic challenges although things are getting better. At this time, Greece needs to have its population supporting the country.

I'm surprised Italy and Germany aren't higher.

Glad that Turkey is not included seeing that it's not European.

R47. Greece has been incredibly strict during the COVID crisis. The government had the entire population on lock-down including controlling movement with drones, although things are loosening now. You had to even report to the government when you were going to walk your dog. The government was relentless in flattening the curve and keeping the coronavirus to a minimum. It worked. Greece led Europe in the least amount of illnesses and deaths.

There is nothing like sunsets over the Aegean. They're grand, gorgeous and mesmerizing.

I think the French mainly feel their language is superior

R52, probably food as well. They have certain expectations for quality of food, technique and preparation. It's more than just eating food -- it's a lifestyle.

Agree R53

I think the top countries are compensating fir being looked down on by Western Europe that and the wars in the nineties so it makes sense that Bosnia f.e is very nationalistic. They bled to see their state independent.

The Greeks created the word Xenophobia.

This is clearly biased toward volunteered chauvinism versus attitudinal chauvinism. Otherwise Sweden and the Netherlands would be at the top of the list.

Spain is modest because they went through the much longer and more recent experience of Franco. The others are about insecurity/bravado mostly.

I was watching the Lance doc on ESPN. The bikers were describing the attitudes of the European racers. Italy, vain, boisterous, fun. Spain, modest, humble. Belgium, workman like, not too ambitious, France, superior, Germany, organized, workmen.
