On the contrary I think it fits most of the USA save for maybe the Southern States. As an Eastern European myself I'm interested in knowing excactly which stereotypes Americans hold. They might be mostly true as well.

Honestly USA is seen as an individualistic country and by extension its citizens as selfish. Total opposite of Eastern European countries like Romania and Russia.

Comments like yours are the result of dumbing down American English. I don't see what's difficult to understand about it.
Before someone acts smart, English is not my first language so refrain from wasting time.

Guess someone in that category felt called out. You might need to pay attention to what others say, not what you think they say.

Assuming it was diagnosed by your doctor, it falls under the 'cognitive deficits' section in my previous comment. Even so, it doesn't excuse one from at least trying.

One of them is synonymous. Clumsiness is a learned (or lack of) behavior, whereas children can be taught to be mindful of their actions. As a child who grew up in a poor Eastern European family, I was punished for my clumsiness, which led me to become an adult who pays attention to what he does. While I empathize with individuals who have significant cognitive deficits, I generally have absolutely no tolerance for those who do not make an effort to be mindful of their actions.
