Before we get off on the wrong foot, I want to say that you and I have a lot of positive interactions on this site and I generally agree with you.

This is a meme for an edgy freshman with Fight Club and Joker posters in their room. A scripted science show with a limited scope and a decent budget that was cherry picked for being one season vs a cheap, fast reality show that was also cherry picked for its longevity is a bad comparison and doesn't imply anything about the intelligence of a country.

But instead of defending it, all of your replies are just "look at this other way Americans are stupid!" which just makes it seem like you are that high schooler caricature I described earlier.

I KNOW you're not a teenager and I've always seen you act better than that in other threads so what going on with this one?
