There’s something strangely universal about thinking your country does at least a few things better than everyone else. Maybe it’s the food, the roads, the sports, or some completely ordinary invention you would never imagine living without. Most people keep those opinions to themselves, but Americans have never been particularly shy about making their case.
A quick look at the r/2american4you subreddit shows just how far that confidence can go. We can see them joking, boasting, and making wildly patriotic arguments about everything from everyday life to the country’s supposed superiority over the rest of the world. Some of the takes even sound convincing enough to make you wonder if they are actually kidding.
From hilariously specific claims to unapologetically American takes, these images capture the kind of patriotism that refuses to settle for second place. Scroll down to see some of the best they have to offer.
