I always feel like I have to apologize for being American.&#8217;\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>An older British woman said of how she perceives Americans: &#8216;There&#8217;s definitely sort of a sense that there is a lot of difficult things going on in America and that America potentially could be quite a difficult place to live, especially if you&#8217;re of color or from the Middle East.&#8217;\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>Another woman mused: &#8216;They&#8217;re too extra. It doesn&#8217;t seem like it&#8217;s genuine.&#8217;<\/p>\n<p>She later added: &#8216;I don&#8217;t think people are necessarily dumb, and I don&#8217;t think it&#8217;s a question of being dumb. I think it&#8217;s just that there&#8217;s this idea of like, &#8216;Yeah, being the best!&#8217;\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>&#8216;To think that people in America, depending on where you are born, you can have access to care or not, it&#8217;s frightening!<\/p>\n<p>&#8216;And I don&#8217;t know how you can speak about being &#8216;the best&#8217; when you can&#8217;t even make sure that everybody&#8217;s taken care of,&#8217; the woman concluded.<\/p>\n<p>Asked how he feels Americans perceive the British, one young man answered: &#8216;They kind of look down on us. I feel like Americans sort of think they&#8217;re on top of everything.
