Is that still a thing in the US?

Because whenever I play with fellow americans in online games and they ask me where I'm from they either jokingly say "oh you're a Nazi then" or just straight out say I am one.

Has America failed education or did anything change the past years.

 

[GeorgPrime]

Because Hitler was an Austrian

 

[AquaticSquirrel]

whoops! wrong country! My bad

 

[German Hops]

gtfo, us Americans don't even know the difference between Austria and Australia.

 

[DKehoe]

 

[Cunth]

It’s pronounced Australia

 

[p_xavier]

To woke Americans everyone is a Nazi so I guess they got you covered.

Not realizing that this kind of thinking makes them a Nazi xD

It's true though.
And I am saying this as a German.

Greets from across the border, mate..

It’s not like it matters.

 

[Fugitive Sex]

Your mistake is really trying to engage in conversation with them. Not to be rude, but for a so-called developed nation, Americans are unfortunately ignorant.

 

[DESTROYA]

Your first mistake is playing online and listening to anything people are saying. Next time just tell everyone that asks your from North Korea.

Nice way to throw all of USA under a bus when your most likely playing online with a 12 year kid , and 12 year olds represent all Americans
In general the online player community from all countries is pretty toxic.

 

[MrS]

Their history books don't even tell them how their forefathers committed genocide against Native Americans. Shoulda shoved a hamburger down their throat and told them to shut the fuck up.

 

[Richard Packer]

I used to play Halo 2 with a bunch of Australians. It was so hard to understand what they were saying. With the missing teeth and all. I miss those guys. I think they all got pretty serious into kangaroos.

 

[Elektro Demon]

Hitler was from there so that's why they're asking you that. In my personal experience, most Americanos are not really smart and don't really learn anything about other countries except their own.

The average American thinks ‘World News’ is anything that happens in and across the 50 states.

 

[M1chl]

Another country oppresing Czech Republic, when does it stops??!!

 

[Taxexemption]

It's a common type of American joke.


"You're French? You must like baguettes, cheese, wine, and surrender."


"You're Italian? You must be angry and eat lots of pasta."


Most Americans don't know Austria exists. We never learn anything about it in school. I think I was actually surprised when I learned as an adult that Austria was a country. I was like "wtf, how come this country literally never comes up in the news or history books?"

Hey, that means Bavaria is largely gone. I like this quite a lot.

Meh, watch your history and your intervention to our land : D

I sincerely apologize on their behalf. Americans, on average, are pretty ignorant and rude bunch, especially with the cloak of anonymity.

Not Nazi's but an island of criminal cast offs.

 

[BigLee74]

Chuck another shrimp on the barbie, mate!

(my gran was Austrian, met my grandad during the war, come at me!)

 

[Men_in_Boxes]

OP came to NeoGAF complaining about being called a Nazi. NeoGAF...

 

[Kamina]

That might be my fault OP. Whenever I meet someone online i keep telling them about being from the country Hitler was born.

 

[Ozzy Onya A2Z]

That's an upgrade from always being called criminals.

 

[farmerboy]

thats not a noif

Ok, this got me more than it had any right to do so

 

[Yoboman]

All I know from history class is that Australians were really hungry before WW1. They even named their country after it

 

[Tschumi]

+100 pts

 

[SLoWMoTIoN]

There is real quick way to find out if you are one.


OP who did 9/11?

Not Nazi's but an island of criminal cast offs.

That's Australia.

 

[bender]

That's Australia.

 

[SLoWMoTIoN]

Hungary? Somebody get them some food!

kill me

 

[Elginer]

I get called a Nazi all the damn time at work but by Cubans. Weirdest thing is I’m fucking of Puerto Rican and Italian descent. Must be a Florida thing.
Shrug

 

[H4ze]

I feel you brah, greetings from Germany <3

 

[captainraincoat]

[Bullet Club]

Falco was a Nazi?

 

[ruvikx]

Okay, what the hell happened to Slovenia? Has it been annexed?

 

[Irobot82]

I think of The Sound of Music and fleeing the Nazi's. Is that even accurate?

we always start fights and blame someone else started it, works like a charm!

Bush did it.

So funny, I never ever watched that movie and I'm from Austria. I didn't even know it exists until I went to America for a holiday. It doesn't seem to be a big thing here. Why do Americans love it so much?

Well my mum is British and she was the one who loved it. Maybe it's a British thing?

Huh? This reads like you're from the US, not Austria. Or did you move over?

Is this a pic from your grandpa's birthday party?:
