It sounds like you are implying that web developers are beneath you. Building web based software is more complex than slapping together some HTML, JavaScript and CSS.



I am absolutely not saying that. What part of any of that says they are beneath me?

When a European tells an American that they're not the only ones on the internet you people don't jump down their throats. When I do it you people lose your collective shit.


When a European preemptively tells an American that they're not the only ones on the Internet based on stereotypes about Americans, then yeah, that's kind of offensive. You've insulted Americans based on stereotypes, insulted web developers based on stereotypes, and when people point it out to you, you keep doubling down on it.

Let this Ugly American suggest to you that perhaps you should consider following the First Rules of Holes: when you're in one, stop digging.
