For some reason I thought Euros would be more well read than Americans, but I guess that's not the case.
>>24873010
>>24873010is this adjusted by population
>>24873010simple explanation is that americans lie. and indians too.
>>24873023Cope
>>24873038im american. we are not reading 17 books a year. you can look at how terrible book sales are.
>>24873010>>24873012do smutt novels count?
>>24873052>weMaybe not you, but some of us are.>>24873056>do smutt novels count?More than likely they are grouped in with everything else.
>>24873010Who would ever believe this? Yanks don't read. They gorge themselves on McDonalds and doomscroll.
>>24873063>Maybe not you, but some of us are.Yeah "some". Not the average American. Idk why you want to have nationalistic pride for something that is not and never has been our forté. we are not a nation of readers...
>>24873052You mean the book sales that are so astronomically high that debut YA authors routinely get multimillion dollar contracts?
>>24873083>debut YA authors routinely get multimillion dollar contractsI dont believe that.
>>24873091It doesn't matter if you believe it. It simply is.
>>24873096no one is getting a multi million dollar for a debut novel, you are retarded.
Euros coping ITT. The American and Pajeet seething is now especially ironic.
>>24873052You and your zoomie cohort definitely aren't because you type like a toddler.
>>24873010Was this self reported?
>>24873109>zoomieyou sound like the retarded toddler. post your book stack.

>>24873230Chuds don't apologize or admit fault. They simply deny reality and insult you.
>>24873010>amerifats and poos read the mostNot a chance.
>>24873010It's actually France, Iran, and Turkey.
>>24873010Where's china
Maybe they're going by book sales, and Americans love their intellectual tiktok backgrounds
>>24873312working 996
>>24873010>>24873012>India>Readingchoose one. I'm a pajeet (I live in India) and nobody fucking reads. It's likely 16 pages per year.Second-hand bookstores only sell crap that no one bought. Again, NO ONE READS.
>>24873010Tf do Indians read?
>>24873010eurocucks utterly BTFO'd once again
>>24873021no, the numbers are absolutethe entire of the us population reads a total of 17 books per year
>>24873010They sure think they're smarter though
>>24873010This data comes from a survey by CEOWORLD magazine, lmao>>24873251Yeah, multiple other times I've looked this up France is at the top.
>>24873840>I'm a pajeetReal talk. How badly are your people taking the Shit Festival video that just dropped?
>>24873072Your mom gorges herself on my cock
>>24873010Okay but what are they reading?Which country is reading the most Plato and Aristotle?
>>24873010Does it go by book sales? I know a lot of people that buy books they will never read.Regardless it's not that crazy.Reading is down everywhere, the USA and India has a far larger population than the UK, France, or Italy. We might not see a lot of young folk read but older folk still do frequently. India's would probably be higher if all of them had the ability to participate in these studies.
>>24874189>populationIt's per capita. I think it's just one guy who reads 2 trillion books a year.
>>24874098IDK I don't go on the indian side of the internet. It's just... shit. Honestly. Indians are just one step above niggers.
>>24874281BookReader-Georg must be excluded from the count
>>24873840You clearly haven't been around college students in North or Central India. South India too has many readers.>>24874098Not that anon, but most people didn't care. There was this Reddit thread that blew up, but then nobody gave a crap outside of reddit. That Oliviera guy initially tweeted that stuff to promote the video and piss off lefties. Most people who did get ragbaited were not even Indian.
>>24875119>>>24873840 (You)>You clearly haven't been around college students in North or Central India. South India too has many readersNigga I've been in colleges in Delhi, Mum, Kerela and Bhopal. Nobody fucking reads. I have trouble finding people that can write two passable sentences in english.
>>24873010>>24873012I seriously doubt these charts, because the English "book" does not translate well into other languages, so we have no idea what is meant with book exactly.
>>24873010>self-reported dataAbsolutely worthless
>>24873012Maybe Canadians read books, we don't know. Frankly, we don't wanna know.
I live in California and I don't know anyone who reads any books any year.
>>24873010If Americans read so much where did the steriotype of them being stupid come from?
>>24875610Jealousy. Same with Indians being considered dirty. In actuality they are among the cleanest people on the planet
>>24873010Americans read in the time they save by not having to take public transit everywhere
>>24875504Perfectly cromulent post.
>>24875610The primary reason for this perception is the intersection of European arrogance and its American counterpart.Europeans are full of themselves and Americans couldn't care less. This means a European will be mortally offended at an American who doesn't know (care) that Luxumbourg and Lichtenstein are different places or that they even exist at all, and will remember this stupid American for the rest of his life.
>>24875610It comes from Burgerstans being stupid. No stereotype arises from nothing. There is always truth there.
>>24875636Public transit is one of the best times to read
>>24875678Yeah that's the theory, but in reality only happens off hours when it's not packed. Very few people actually read on public transit.
>>24873010i know this is bullshit when we have literature majors who complain about having to read whole books to the point universities are lowering the reading requirements t
>>24874098I didn’t even know that was a thing until that video. I knew we use manure for fuel and insulation (specifically for chicken coops and such things) in rural villages, that’s all. Just nuke us
>>24873012>We have data from Zimbabwe and Ethiopia but not Canada, Ireland, Sweden or Poland
>>24875678>reading on American public transit>get your throat slit
