This trope has caused Americans to believe a number of things that are just plain wrong. Many Americans are convinced beyond dissuasion that America is the only source of foreign aid and, even stranger, that programs like Lend-Lease were donations instead of loans that were repaid with interest. It also causes Americans overseas to expect deferential, obsequious fawning from all foreigners, even those whose ancestors sacrificed their lives to help America (Lafayette, anyone?). Naturally, they don\'t see that the anger they engender is caused by this \

\\\\\\\\
America sometimes saves the day because the [[BackedByThePentagon US military \\\'\\\'pays\\\'\\\' films to do so.]] If you show them in a very positive light, they\\\'ll let you borrow top notch military planes, ships, and tanks to film, which would normally cost you millions to get access to. So long as you make sure that evil military general is French, and the army that stops him aren\\\'t, you go a long way towards making your film within your budget. Not that this is an uncommon practice, but in the modern day it is absolutely restricted to America - no other country can justify budgeting taxpayer funds in such a way.

[[AmericaWinsTheWarDiscussion As I discovered a few days ago, he did this in the America Wins The War trope as well.]] Only I didn\\\'t know he\\\'d spread his vitriol to other pages, and turned \\\'\\\'this\\\'\\\' trope into [[TheReasonYouSuckSpeech their personal soapbox on how oh-so-ignorant-and-wrong those \\\"American rednecks\\\" are]].

Originally I thought this guy was a Brit given his edit on AmericaWinsTheWar--since he echoes the sentiments of other British trolls that try to assert that Americans were villains during WWII, saddling the Allies with massive war debts to the point of treating them like post-WWI Germany ([[DanBrowned which is highly inaccurate]])--but it seems that Blurgle is Canadian given their IP (Winnipeg, Manitoba).

I still think they\\\'re a troll trying to turn TV Tropes into a battleground of MisplacedNationalism, though, given that many Canadians think they know everything about Americans, and that Americans know nothing about anything. I\\\'m going to be checking this guy\\\'s edits to see what \\\'\\\'else\\\'\\\' he\\\'s defaced with his DanBrowned crap.
