On that stage of equals, do Americans really seem more nationalistic than everyone else? Don't confuse corporate controlled news media with a general population.

They don't like or care about anything that comes from outside the US.

Nope, except for some of my food, a few tools, and maybe two pieces of furniture, I couldn't find anything that comes from inside the U.S.

Some of them don't even know where European countries are...
You're being too kind; it's much worse than that. Some of us Americans actually think we're free. It's the most powerful delusion going. Because of this, free-to-be-stupid is a right, not a privilege, and it's killing us. But I'm not sure that applies to most Americans on a user forum about Finnish products manufactured in South Korea.
