Why are Americans so retarded?

Why is red considered the right-wing color, and blue the left-wing color in America?

In the rest of the world, red is the color of the left-wing, blue of the right-wing.

America is exceptional in all things, including retardation

...

Says the Euro trash that takes our money and gets over run my Muslims. That is what I call retarded.All you Euro trash are weak and pathetic.

Norway takes your money?

not so weak and pathetic that we have to end our miserable lifes with drugs

It's the color of the parties, not the ideologies. Democrats are blue, Republicans are red.

Because the left utterly controls the American mainstream media, and when they started coloring the maps for the elections they weren't dumb enough to make their own side red.

It should be the other way around though, is what he's saying. The reason it isn't is because democrats ran the TV news stations and were smart enough to not willingly portray themselves as the party closer to communism.

Doesn't really matter, Americans are the God-race and we set the standard.

You will comply with us or fade off into obscurity.

Red blooded, real human Americans VS blue blooded lizard illuminati

Lol no. Amerifats not knowing their own history. In Europe, red is more of a liberal socialist colour while blue shows conservatism. In the USA it was the same. Instead the republicans were the liberals while democrats were conservative hence why they were red and.blue respectively. This changed in the 70s and 80s when Reagan redefined the party for the rich and more conservative populations.

looks like kenya

Don't you mean why are niggers so retarded? I wonder who started this thread. Who could be so eager to spread le 56% meme?

>god-race
>not using the metric system

right..

No dumbass, neither party had one color associated with them until very recently. And the flip in party alignments happened long before Reagan; the biggest transition was under FDR.

I read an article about this once. The TV networks used to pick the colors pretty much randomly, so it was sometimes blue/red and sometimes red/blue. Being Dems/commies themselves, they didn't want to associate socialist red with the Dems.
In 2000 it happened to be R-red/D-blue. And it stuck, because we saw those maps on TV for months while the chad counting and court cases went on, and people started talking blue states and red states.

I hope you didn't post that pic to prove your point

Reds the better color anyway. Blue is for yankee faggots.

It actually used to be that way here as well, and changed during the Regan administration I believe. Not sure why it was changed, too lazy to look it up, probably something to do with tricking niggers or jews into voting a certain way.

The real question is. Why do you care? Why do any Europeans care? Why is America always on their minds?

norjerusalem is real, scandikikes are real, look to sweden for proof

General William Tecumseh Sherman begs to differ, Southern fag.

>that webm

US news media did this to help protect Democrats because of that reason. Republicans accused Democrats of being socialists so US media used blue rather than red to help Democrats.

Clearly, the US is not influenced by what the rest of the world does. We don’t care.

Metric system is garbage. Sorry it's soooo easy.

I'm happy my field of work doesn't use that shit except for insulation ratings on motor windings.

If you actually look into where our measurements come from it makes more fucking sense for everyday use.

>puts blue on flag anyway

KEK.

Ya toilets are clean?
Based polaks need new pastures, we are kicking them out

That is a trend that only emerged during the 2000 election, before then parties didn't really have colors in the states. It was literally only because Ronald Reagan was an extremely popular president in the 1980s and his name starts with an R so they decided to use red. That's literally it. Before that election coverage would use blue or red and different stations would use different colors. Some didn't even use blue or red. Pic related is from the 1980 presidential election, the blue states are the Republican candidate Ronald Reagan.

Red blood and blue fags

Oh look the most reasonable response and in the thread and NO REPLIES

We welcome our Polish friends.

Ah yes. The great conquering hero leading his brace victorious army against women, children, old men, and farm animals. Truly he was one of the greats alongside your other great men. Grant the Butcher who threw his men into meat grinder assaults again and again simply because he had more and that was the tactics he knew and Lincoln the tyrant who suspended habeous corpus, inprisoned anti war senators and congressmen, made news papers part of the state propaganda apparatus, forcibly conscripted immigrants literally as they walked off the boat and had civilians killed in mass and destroyed the fabric of America before stapling it together into the unholy monster it is now.

Truly the heroes we should look up to.

>If you actually look into where our measurements come from it makes more fucking sense for everyday use.

Yes it makes sense for low skilled work.

It's just a disaster for engineers.

Norwegians = actually genetically dumb

asks why citizens where the Jew poisons the food is dumb

The rest of the world doesn't matter.

Would the CSA have been as successful as the USA? Northerners are healthier, smarter, etc.

I think the weather makes southern people stupid, those in colder climates have to think more

>claim an arbitrary measure of units is important in 2017

All of us engineers just use Google to unit convert or it's built into our algorithms...

Mutts

because our parties flipped ideologies, and they're probably going to flip again.

Cry about it, faggot. Your "great"-"great"-grandpappy lost because he was led by pussies, under a guise of lies. The South wanted the patriarchal rule of Europe and wished to be classist slaves. The rich in the South had two niggers, African slaves and your relatives.

The rest of the world is fucked, why would we want to be like them.

Red is a good color, I always liked the bloods more than the crips.

Soo woo!

After watching that webm ...

... I'm too distracted to respond to your actual post.

Just wow.

>for every day use
That's the point I keep making. I don't want to go to the store and ask for four hundred and fifty grams of roast beef.

Well they aren't the brightest bulbs on the Christmas tree

Twerking and Flaming Nigger Ass; powerful agents to the uninitiated, but we are initiated aren't we Bruce?

>flipped
LOL

Didn't even have family in the war. We came over till 1987. You never fail to amuse however, the northerners always get so upset when their idols are shown to be false, covered in blood, butchers and tyrants the lot of them. They were the same as he people my family fled from. The monsters of the USSR would find good company in your "heroes".

Stuff like this didn't help

en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bleeding_Kansas

Burning people is part of nigger culture.
Anyone ever asked themselves why they are black?
WELL DUH

American exceptionalism, we know little of socialist politics, 98% of White Americans don't know what May 1st is about.
So red is free to mean "red-blooded" or other things that the right-wing can enjoy.

No nation has ever put a human onto the moon using the metric system.

Russians did

This is the reason, user!

Name of the Russian to land on the moon?

What am I looking at this map?

>that last flame that went right up her ass crack

Well, perhaps I am wrong. But then again, your moon landing was recorded in a film studio.

Support for a federal Europe

why do they light each other on fire all the time?

In the time of Lincoln Democrats were pro-slavery while Republicans were considered to be the progressives.

They did what they had to to take us out of Eurofag mentality. Unfortunately, now with globalism being implemented, classist rule is becoming more of an issue. Since I live in the south now, maybe I will be fighting next to you, Southern boy implant.

wow

Just like google maybe?

because in America the right wing are the classical liberals and the left wing are authoritarian

Republicans used to be the party of niggers and nigger rights

Democrats used to be the party of the KKK

They may have done so. But "doing what they had to" does not absolve them of their actions. Even then what freedom did they give? Freeing the south of it's supposed classist monarchal structure only to support the new wave of classist big industry robber barons of the north? Because that's exactly what happened.

I don't delude myself in thinking the south was run by great men. But if both sides it was the lesser of two evils. The Union was controlled by big business even then, just look at the railroad barons and the rope and clothing manufacturers. Pressuring congress to pass trade laws choking southern agricultural and forcing them to sell to northern companies for pennies or be taxed into oblivion selling to foreign countries.

The mainstream media developed the red/blue thing as color TV became a thing. Flag colors are red white and blue so red and blue were obvious choices. Obviously the media was full of leftists and crypto-commies. This was during the cold war and the 'red-scare' was still a thing. RED was assigned to the Republicans because people associated red with dirty fucking commies. Blue has many positive connotations like the phrase "true blue". Just another lie, like the fact that the democrats help black people, the poor, and the like.

Niggers aren't American

This is exactly right.

Good old muzzie humor. May Allah bless you as you rape and overtake the population of a confused nation.

>Germany.
>Germany is not the middle east.

Pick one.

This. You need to understand that america is essentially all left wing, since we've outlawed nobility. The politics is a patchwork of dealings, some of the shadier dealings that weren't originally part of the process (like political parties) made its way into our system.

They all have a boss, its supposed to be the people who elected them. When they fuck up, they are supposed to be fired. Take our successes and failings in this endeavor as a lesson.

There's no fucking way we will ever do things the same as europe, we enjoy fucking this great experiment up on our own, in our own fashion. Hope you all have enjoyed the ride.

...

because in the US historically speaking of course, its not supposed to represent left and right its supposed to represent big and small

Because being incompatible with the rest of the world is just how America rolls.

They didn't flip ideologies actually. The democrats just began pandering to niggers and single moms so the republicans by comparison looked tame. The republican party hasn't changed all that much. Its just as neocon and jewish as it always has been. The republicans were not a neoliberal party pre-Johnson.

Thanks for your prayers. Inshallah my fellow Muslim brother

We can't be that dark or Merkel would import all of us and give us free shit.

Why don't you fuck off, wtf has your country done compared to ours?

Gonna happen to America soon enough.
They already are living in the mid West.

>stupid Instagram sluts with daddies Guccied ar 15 means America is a God country.
I could shoot both of them dead with a mosin using irons.

Because our leftist media used to try to distance itself from socialism/communism. Its why here its "Liberal" not socialist

This^

Nigger lovers like you are why I'm glad cops shoot first.
Get out and go back to africa.

I'm ball parking it but 28 grams is an ounze your asking for like almost a pound of meat.
1000 grams in a kilo.
If you ever dealt drugs this would be easy to remember.

There was a consensus among the media some time in the 80's that the Left would be "blue" and the Right would be "red." This was a calculated move to counter slogans like "Better dead than Red." This was during the Reagan presidency when he called the Soviet Union "The Evil Empire." And red was associated with Communists, so the American media, which were almost all Leftists, made a concerted effort to flip the political meaning of the two colors so that the American
Left was no longer associated Communist Reds in the public mind.

White is right-wing

HURR DURR I don't know how to google spoon feed me the post.
Look up Russian space programs and Russian space achievements.

Said it better than I did.

Red was left-wing in the 80's. Go watch some of the Presidential races from then. The reason was so leftists couldn't be called commies. Its the same with the word liberal, although that changed in the 20's. I believe the 2000 race was the first one to uniformly use red for republicans, and blue for demoncrats. The 76 election had R's as white, D's as red in the NYTs. In 80' it was the opposite, nominally to make the winner stand out. The change slowly went from there.

Lol what's metric?

I hope you didn't think you were relevant at all

Before Lincolin, it was that way. But political beliefs changed within the parties in the 1800's 1900's.

at least they know something is deeply wrong so they are seeking relief. europeans instead just pretend that everything is going to get better somehow by itself.

i actually feel bad watching that

Answer the question then, you black son of a bitch.
Name of the russian who landed on the fucking moon, or are you one of those flat earth bone heads?

>why doesn't America behave the way we Good Europeans want them to?
Evryteim

What about the tax cuts? Its obviously 5d chess to cause the meme market to crash. I think Trump & Putin are working together.
