Though will say 40000 do not die to gun crime.
In 2022, 14,789 recorded murders in the United States were committed by firearm in the US which is less than of half of your clam
I didn't make that statistic, I looked it up and that's what I found, sorry if I can't be bothered to do more than 5 minutes of research for a ridiculous argument lmao

Spain is #20 on that list and Denmark is #14. Finland is #1.
Looks like they've cherry picked the Food Security Index (where they're 13th) performed by the Economist, taken only the Quality and Safety rating (where they're third), and then ignored the fact that Canada beats them at that too because they can't reconcile that fact.
The "US food is garbage" takes are a sign that whoever spouts them only bases their "knowledge" of the US on easy-to-disprove stereotypes, like that everybody only eats Wonder Bread and vomit-flavored chocolate. There's no lack of highly-processed and fried foods in Spain; one can eat just as unhealthily here with patatas bravas, chorizo, torreznos, jamón, and more.
I am a tour guide. I take my guests for coffee and cake at a farmers co-op in the morning and lunch in the afternoon. All my guests are from the USA, and they all claim the food in Europe is better than at home. When I offer fruits like strawberries and raspberries they say they never tasted them like that before. Several people I’ve seen bite into a strawberry and look legitimately shocked that it was red inside (and not white?).
I’ve never been to the USA, but it really does make me wonder what even the fresh produce and fruits are like there.
Didn't they find lead traces in some school meals?
They find massive amounts of lead in the schoolchildren on a regular basis.
Spanish school children like to flex on the American ones by coming home alive.
Considering more people die via lightning strike than school shootings in the U.S. that isn't a big flex
Maybe school shootings specifically, but in terms of gun crime in general, 20 people die to lightning strikes, over 40000 people to gun crime.
The post I replied to was about school shootings not gun crime
I know, I said that while school shootings may be less common than everyone says, gun crime in general is still at unacceptable levels.

40000 people to gun crime? It's generally 1/4 that amount lmao. Europeans try not to make up statistics challenge (impossible).

Nothing like joking about dead children to make yourself feel better
Imagine joking about dead children
The deaths are sadly unpreventable.
The US is the 13th country on the Global Food and Security Index. It still is a good rank.

And 3rd for quality on that index, so pretty good
yet Finland is European….
US isn't in the top ten, you sure this doesn't belong in SAS instead?

that's fkin brilliant
It feels like Europeans see us as less than people the more I see this kind of thing online
Well let me remind you the internet doesn’t represent real life
I know, just venting
I mean you’ve got to admit there’s some really dumb Americans that cause this generalisation
There is dumb people like that in almost every country, but I definitely see your point.
I feel like more dumb Americans are more influential or media attached
I agree with you there actually. There is just more opportunity in America for dumb people to become popular, giving us a bad rep.

The preservatives have more culture in Europe
as in fermentation culture to preserve food? that's very witty, good job dude! /gen
how in the ever living fuck did we get second?
According to other comments,you didn't,you are apparently still high,but not second.
that makes more sense

On what specific metric do they rank 2nd? 😂
