I do now claim to speak perfect English. In fact, if you've read some of my previous answers you'll notice I've made a point of letting people know I am NOT a native speaker.
This was an honest question since I did feel there were a couple of mistakes.

"Americans" should be capitalized, your second comma is rather useless, and "too" should probably be replaced by "either."

I'm not totally sure where you came up with this sentence but I think I understand the jist of what you want to communicate. Here's how to say that -
For some reason, some Americans don't know this either but still will correct people who use English spelling and grammar.
Note that the comma after "either" (replacing "too") is not needed and references to America are always capitalized.

i noticed that a lot of British people will call 'Americans' dumb because of how Americans write.
Don't people realize that Americans have completely different grammar rules?
Americans are taught American English not English in schools. It has nothing to do with stupidity.
For some reason, some Americans don't know this too, and thye will correct anyone who uses English spellings and grammars.
Not using English spellings, it does not make anyone stupid or uneducated.

For some reason, (don’t need a comma here) some americans (Capital "A") don't know this too (“either” would be better and no comma after as you have the same subject), and will correct people who use English spellings (“spelling” not plural) and grammar.

I think it's very low of you to pick on another user for making a few minor mistakes just because you were offended or hurt by her question in another thread. Almost everyone who has posted a message on this website has made similar mistakes (as a top contributor, I'm sure you already know that), yet you decided to take your frustration out on a member, who, by the way, never claimed to write English perfectly, for complaining about a completely unrelated matter. The fact that she doesn't write perfectly doesn't mean that her complaint wasn't valid.

Good, but don't forget "spelling" is not a plural noun, so "spellings" is wrong.

You have way to many sentence fragments, they should be joined using a conjunction.
