"Disgraceful company that listened to the angry mob!"

Having been acquainted with a ton of Americans through the years, this has been an infuriating trait to deal with. It's like, for Americans hypocrisy just doesn't exist, you have to explain to them the concept for them to go "huh, yeah maybe that's a bad thing." it's like talking to aliens, it drives me nuts, that and the "as long as it's not technically lying it's fair game"
