In reality what are Americans if not proto-Europeans?
They are the descendants of the Europeans who colonized America.

Imagine thinking that American culture outgrew European culture(s).
America is stagnant and divided; its groups refusing to intermingle and create something new, while a lot of European countries have embraced foreign ideas, foods, values, and integrated them into their culture, making it more unique, developed, and modern.
Proto Americans is a hilarious phrase in how it explains so much about the speaker and how they think.

OP sent the following text as an explanation on why this is US Defaultism:
On a post about a 'blind' clear of content showing the number of people with clears already joining the party. Suggesting they can't read.
Responder assumes everyone on the sub is American.
Is this Defaultism? Then upvote this comment, otherwise downvote it.
