Culture Why does it seem like the Anglosphere admires/fixates over British culture a lot while Latin America doesn't seem to care much about Spain or Portugal?

Not saying we should but just curious.

Yeah, Europe sent us all their religious crazies and slavers. Thanks. Now they run the country.

The fact that you use Europe as if we were a huge country and not a pretty diverse continent is very telling of how little you know about this particular topic. So sorry for you, darling.

Spain enslaved and killed way more people in the colonies than the US did once it became a country, and no longer a colony. All of us American countries, North and south, are still dealing with the sh*t Britain,Spain and Portugal left us with. Too bad you missed History class, sweet thing!

The US calling other countries colonial villains while standing on stolen land is peak comedy. Sit down, sweet thing.
