Not a single country in Europe has any real freedom of press. Germany and Sweden imprison and harass political dissidents. They lie to the public. Germany has just elected Merkel to her 4th term. She is becoming an autocrat. Germany still has some semblance of progress because they have robbed most the rest of Europe through the EU, which is a body of unelected bureaucrats who have no concern for the people. Sweden is literally falling to pieces. Bomb attacks are increasing. Rape is increasing dramatically. Violence is escalating. And the public are not allowed to discuss this. The news refuses to report it. If these governments stay the course, Europe will either fall into totalitarianism or collapse within the next 5 years.

Twains river novels are great though.

It's hard for Europeans to understand though. You really have to had spent some time in the American south, or even just some summers in American woods to understand the feeling of freedom and imagination that train musters up.

The poster above that was saying that America is essentially full of the reprobates, whackos and drunks that were pulled of the streets of Europe is essentially right. Beyond the hoity-toidy colonialists turned revolutionaries or gilded age authors, the American literary tradition seems to fetishize the lowbrow and blue collar. It's really because for along time, before America became a consumerist post-national shopping mall entity, it was pretty backwoods.

It's an American thing. Twain is relatable to me even through the years. I don't really care if Francois or Hans don't like it. It's honest even if it is proto white trash ramblings.

No. You are missing the new dialectic--a reverse scholasticism. The debate begins with a terrible opinion, obviously wrong. Instead of procuring a single chain of quality argument, it instead produces an unparalleled quantity of arguments. From the resulting fray, a triangulation of the truth is possible.
