Why were Americans so resentful? Imagine unironically chimping out like this.
>>18435967Americans are obnoxiously patriotic, this is common knowledge. They should be more like Germans, in Deutschland such crass displays of nationalistic chauvinism are looked down upon and rightly so.
>>18435967>buying a Japanese product only to smash it in an act of protest against people buying Japanese productskek, Amerimutts really do have slacktivism in their blood
Maoist china behavior
>>18435967The weak old faggot politicians trying to use the sledgehammers is amusing.
>>18435967back when japanese products were viewed as cheap broken materials rather than the high-quality efficient and affordable gems
>>18436055>why are you patriotic? Ve are not like zat in Germany
80s Japan was to the US was China is today. In both cases, instead of competing fairly on an economic ground, Americans decided to just try to destroy their rival. In the case of Japan, it was a success and their economy has been stagnating since the 90s. China will win this time, though.
>>18435967Americans should do this to chink shit.
>>18436193>China will win this time, though.China's economy is already stagnating exactly the same way that Japan's was, including a Property Sector Crisis that's been ongoing since 2020 which resulted in the collapse of one of their largest development companies. In fact, the parallels between the two are fairly striking
>>18436204Property is recovering actually right now.
>>18436205So did Japans but like Japan the damage is already done
>>18435967these are lawmakers its a media stunt for the then ongoing operation "subvert japan: 2.0 You Can (Not) have a future".
>>18435967they worship American exceptionalism but don't like the reality where all their most successful capitalists are conmen that import foreign intellects or go abroad to hire foreign workers.
>>18436132Japanese technology are superior
>>18435967Ironically Japan makes most of their US sold cars in the US now. They've had a manufacturing plant in my state since the late 80s.
>struggled to competeMore like "got betrayed and sabotaged by their government in favor of foreigners"
>>18436246(the betrayal was allowing competition to exist against their inferior product)
>>18435967They're doing this to China now kek
>>18436246>no nooooooo!!!! You can’t let that foreign car compete fairly with my shitty ass domestic one on the free market! Why did you betray me so????
>>18435967Toshiba earned that one.https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Toshiba%E2%80%93Kongsberg_scandal
>>18436055The German Government's blocking the importation of Chinese EVs these days, I understand, and it's German lawyers who're being Jews about them Klemmbausteine.
>>18435967I'm trying to imagine 80's Atari staff burning NES consoles and it's not a good look
>>18435967>Why were Americans so resentful?Because no one buys mutt cars internationally.
>>18436055There's nothing about modern Germany worth emulating. If Americans were still at least pragmatic and racist like they once were, this innate chauvinism would be a force for good in the world again.
>>18437417Why would they? Obsolescence is baked in to every part of American vehicles.
>>18436055Have fun getting replaced by Turks. You won't be missed.
>>18436059Would you rather us buy a Japanese person and beat them with a hammer instead?
>>18437417Or maybe because rice burners are just vaguely homosexual looking?
>>18437417There are two US automakers within the top 10 by volume globally, General Motors and Ford, but overall the market is dominated by Japan and Germany. Japan makes great cars, German cars are absolute horse shit though
>>18436055You don’t like your own nation, and you don’t like masculinity. Trust me kraut, we know.
>>18437417Japan and Germany have tariffs on US cars to artificially make it hard to compete.Nothing German has ever made could compete with American muscle cars, at least Japan had the Supra and Evo
>>18437353>>18437517>>18439114Real German are Prussian, faggot
>>18436239I doubt it
>>18439383Those don't exist anymore.
>>18439116And then they get mad when we do it
>>18439116With what would the US compete?The US never bothered to (and arguably can't) make cars that anyone else wanted to buy in sufficient quantity, that met others' market conditions. In its own domestic market, the argument to buy American is framed in terms of patriotism, rather than as a rational economic choice to meet some specific consumer demand. The total sales of Japanese firms in the US rival those of the American companies, and Japan manages to sustain more players in the internal combustion engine segment with a smaller, poorer population that owns fewer vehicles. By contrast, despite having largely invented the mass production of automobiles, and monopolized the world's largest automotive market for a good half-century, with all that theoretically meant in terms of revenue, experience, and R&D ability, the American companies have what to show for it, that even the "patriots'" dominant strategy is to cry that everyone else is cheating?Even when GM was the largest automotive manufacturer by volume and revenue, they still managed to parlay that into bankruptcy.
>>18436055retards will fall for the bait every time
>>18438181No, I would prefer if American businessmen attempted to lobby for US government to impose a high tax on Japanese goods instead
Krauts are kidding themselves here thinking their shitboxes could ever compete with American cars in a free market. German cars are notoriously unreliable and impossible to repair There is a reason there were never any publicity stunts to destroy a German car, it's because Americans never felt threatened by German cars. In America, if you own a Japanese car you're just seen as a normal person who wants an affordable and reliable car, but if you own a German car you're just seen as a retard.
>>18439472Same with Tulsa Tranny
>>18439425>In its own domestic market, the argument to buy American is framed in terms of patriotism, rather than as a rational economic choice to meet some specific consumer demand.No?? Americans produce high performance Muscle Cars and Pickup Trucks. They have a market niche that other automakers don't fullfill. Christ what a God-awful and baseless take, you're probably brown
>>18436132Back to the Future in 1985 was already joking about how the best stuff came from Japan and it would be unthinkable to people 30 years earlier.
>>18435967>>18436055Seeing random people from around the world make up stories about my country to please themselves from whatever engagement bait caught their eye on twitter or whatever will never stop being bizarre.
>>18436193>China will win The birth policy hasn't even hit full force yet
