I think it's just "clueless Twitter Users" if anything considering they're representative of less than 1% of any country's population. Kinda tells you a lot about who uses social media.

It is not just Americans. It is anyone who visits "social media" sites who are clueless.

Just to be clear, I didn't post the video as an insult to Americans. I was just amazed at what some people believe and in this case it happened to be from the US.

There is an awful lot of mis-information on social media, which gets re-posted multiple times and more and more people believe it (not that I have any social media accounts).

No disrespect intended to our intelligent US friends, but are these real? Can people really be so ignorant?

As there is no speaking in the video, I recommend turning the sound down to avoid the annoying music.

It would be interesting to see how many of those accounts were even real too. Anymore, with the number of fake accounts out there, you never know.

I agree.
Anything I see online I take with a huge grain of salt.
Real or not, this one made me laugh.

Mrs. FlyTexas would agree with the "clueless" part.
