<blockquote>With the rise of American industry in the late nineteenth century, intellectual anti-American discourse entered a new form. Mass production, the Taylor system, and the speed of American life and work became a major threat to some intellectuals' view of European life and tradition. |
|
|
|
|
|
Friedrich Nietzsche wrote, "The breathless haste with which they (the Americans) work - the distinctive vice of the new world - is already beginning ferociously to infect old Europe and is spreading a spiritual emptiness over the continent." |

|

It has been argued that this thesis transformed into a Heideggerian critique of technologism. Heidegger wrote in 1935: "Europe lies today in a great pincer, squeezed between Russia on the one side and America on the other. From a metaphysical point of view, Russia and America are the same, with the same dreary technological frenzy and the same unrestricted organization of the average man." Oswald Spengler had made similar claims in 1931's Man and Technics and his 1934 bestseller The Hour of Decision. In 1921 the Spaniard Luis Araquistáin wrote a book called El Peligro Yanqui (“The Yankee Peril”), in which he condemned American nationalism, mechanization, anti-socialism (“socialism is a social heresy there”) and architecture, finding particular fault with the country’s skyscrapers, which he felt diminished individuality and increased anonymity. He called the United States “a colossal child: all appetite...” |

Racialist critiques |
|
|
Drawing on the ideas of Arthur de Gobineau (1816-82) racialist thinkers decried the supposed degenerating effect of immigration on the racial mix of the American population. The Nazi philosopher Alfred Rosenberg argued that race mixture in the USA made it inferior to countries like Germany which had a supposedly pure-bred racial stock. The belief that America was ruled by a Jewish conspiracy was common in countries ruled by fascists before and during World War II. The Jews, the assumed puppet masters behind American plans for world domination, were also seen as using jazz in a crafty plan to eliminate racial distinctions. However, despite these plans, according to Adolf Hitler America was not to be reckoned as a credible adversary of the Third Reich because of its incoherent social structure: "half-Judaized" and "half-Negrified". |

First, The Nazis thought every ethnicity was "inferior to countries like Germany," there's nothing to distinguish the US here. The pargraph itself directly attributes this to his general racism rather than anti-Americanism per se. Second, this is unreferenced and passive-voice: "The belief that America was ruled by a Jewish conspiracy was common in countries ruled by fascists before and during World War II. The Jews, the assumed puppet masters behind American plans for world domination, were also seen as using jazz in a crafty plan to eliminate racial distinctions.". Again, this is really anti-Semitism rather than anti-Americanism, and probably is better placed in the article on Hitler. ] (]) <span style="font-size: smaller;" class="autosigned">—Preceding ] comment was added at 09:32, 2 November 2008 (UTC).</span><!--Template:Undated--> <!--Autosigned by SineBot--> |

:Nazi anti-Americanism and misconceptions as to race-mixing and Jewish conspiracies is important as it partly explains why Nazi Germany declared war on America in December 1941. This declaration of war was a serious blunder, which almost guaranteed German defeat. The Nazi underestimate of American power is made more comprehensible by the nature of their anti-Americanism. ] (]) 20:00, 2 November 2008 (UTC) |

::That's silly and wrong. Germany declared war on the US because the US declared war on Japan after Pearl Harbor. More generally, the US had been an active ally of Great Britain's for years. Even if there were credible references to back up your claim (which there aren't), it would belong in a different article. Nazi prejudice against Jews and "Negroes" isn't anti-Americanism just because there were those groups existed in the US. <small><span class="autosigned">—Preceding ] comment added by ] (] • ]) 12:18, 3 November 2008 (UTC)</span></small><!-- Template:Unsigned --> <!--Autosigned by SineBot--> |

:::: My main objection would be that its not really that America-specific. Nazi Germany thought itself superior to pretty much every other nation, so it doesn't feel as it was especially directed at the U.S. My thought would be that it is one of those pieces of prose that chould be tightened to improve the article, perhaps by trimming it down to a sentence or two. Nazi race philosophy isn't really a cornerstone of the anti-American phenomenon, after all. <strong>]<small>•]</small></strong> 12:39, 3 November 2008 (UTC) |

:I have plenty more references on this subject, which is of crucial importance to the outcome of world history and about which a lot has been written (see for instance ]'s book ''Prelude to Downfall: Hitler and the United States''). On matters of fact, Adolf Hitler was not obliged by treaty obligations to Japan to declare war on the USA. Conversely the Japanese did not join in on Germany's side against Russia. Adolf had been annoyed for a long time at the covert support that Roosevelt had given to the UK and, as this article states, because he seriously underestimated the power of the USA, based on popular racist anti-American theorising that because of supposed race-mixture, that the USA was not a credible opponent as compared to supposedly pure bred Aryan Germans. (By the way, the same somewhat lame theory was often put forward to account for the decline and fall of the Roman Empire). Also, according to Nazi philosophy, the USA was one of the two anti-poles of the Jewish World Conspiracy (the other being Soviet Russia). According to this philosophy, in the final showdown between the Aryans and the Jews, Germany was obliged to take on both Russia and the USA, which is in fact what they did do. The Nazi nightmare fantasy gained credibility during ] when the ] aiming at the ruralisation of post-war Germany was espoused in the USA by the American Jew ], whilst at the same time the Russian Jew ] was preaching the total destruction of Germany. According to the Nazi propagandist ] this proved that the World Jewish Conspiracy was in fact true. Just to add that I can provide references from numerous sources for all the above if editors here choose to disbelieve them or diminish their importance. Nazi anti-Americanism was not just idle thoughts but had a crucial impact on a World War in which hundreds of millions of people lost their lives. Therefore it is important. ] (]) 11:03, 4 November 2008 (UTC) |

:I quoted Hitler's own words in case people thought I was making it up. The belief that the USA was the HQ of the Jewish World Conspiracy was fairly common among Fascists and others in Europe. Conversely, the tragedy and irony was that some people thought that as the US was in the power of the Jews that therefore they would do more to save the European Jews from mass extermination, which proved not to be the case. Anti-Semitic and pro-Semitic politicians both believed that the Jews were all-powerful in the USA and that they had to adjust their policies accordingly. For instance the Polish government-in-exile toned down its trad anti-Semitic rhetoric in order to curry favour with the USA, whom they believed to be in the power of the Jews. For the Nazis the declaration of war on the USA was the pivotal moment of their crazy Wagnerian fantasy: pitting the pure-bred Aryans against mixed-race Jewish plutocracy of America, at the same time as they contended against the 'Jewish-Bolshevism' of Russia. A crazy idea, to be sure, but one which resulted in the deaths of millions. This is a very important subject, much more important than the space allocated to it here and much more important, for instance, than the mass of wikipedia garbage on particular episodes or characters of obscure American soap-operas or cartoons etc. There is a guideline on the wikipedia which states that we should adopt a world perspective, not getted bogged down in obscure popular culture trivia of interest only to couch potatos in the USA and talk about serious stuff. ] (]) 10:54, 12 November 2008 (UTC) |

Here is a New York Times review of three scholars cited in this work, Barry and Judy Rubin, Hollander, and Jean-Francois Revel. |

The review is by Johnathan Tepperman, senior editor of ''Foreign Affairs''. The article characterizes the scholars (variously) as "conservative, polemical, pedantic, wildly discursive and undisciplined, united by rage at America's enemies -- with a venom that mirrors the anti-Americans' own." |

::Yes, but we should stay focused on the anti-American reactions, which were real and often creative - particularly in regard to South American literature (which is what I know most about). The usual fallacy is to assume that other countries were and are just passive victims of American Imperialism and to then construct a martyrology of victimhood. As well to bear in mind that there were and are active pro-American attitudes as well. ] (]) 18:44, 16 November 2008 (UTC) |

:::This is impossible, because it is a value judgement: "stay focused on the anti-American reactions." There's no consensus about what it means, as the article itself says: "used in an impressionistic manner, resulting in an incoherent nature". This is your personal POV and has nothing to do with "we" should do in the article: "The usual fallacy is to assume that other countries were and are just passive victims of American Imperialism and to then construct a martyrology of victimhood". ] (]) 06:03, 19 November 2008 (UTC) |

Just to say that contrary to what the article states, the ] operation in Vietnam did not create widespread outrage against America. The facts about the war crimes committed in this operation were only revealed about 2002 as I recall and didn't create any particular reaction against America as far as I am aware. This article should stay focused on anti-American reactions not become a list of 'wicked things the Americans did'. ] (]) 22:01, 27 November 2008 (UTC) |

*'''Oppose'''. Currently the only evidence of a ] is the Ngrams graph, which shows a strong preference for the current title. Briefly going over the references in the article, both the current and proposed titles are used, but it seems that the current title is more common. If the nominator or another editor can find evidence that "Anti-American sentiment" is the more common name, ping me and I will reconsider; if this discussion has been closed, feel free to start a new one. However, with the current evidence, I oppose this move. ] </span>]] 15:36, 24 June 2024 (UTC) |
