I'm starting to really dislike Americans. This site hasn't helped me with this issue either. Majority of them seem so stubborn and close minded. I don't want to start disliking a whole nation but fuck.
I'm American myself, and I consider myself a patriot, but I completely understand where you're coming from. Their are a lot of dumbasses out there. But I try to be open minded and understanding.
I would say it's about 50-50 on the site, that the people that act in such a hateful manner. Are that stupid, or they're playing it up for show.
Either way its understandable that it turns you off. Just remember that stupidity and hatred are everywhere, and I don't think they outweigh the normal people. They just are the loudest of the most vocal.
I get ya. But you know there are other americans that arent that way? Just the ones you met.
The United States has the third largest population of any country. I bet there have to be some Americans that you would like.
Im from Canada I hear the racism is worse here then America. Has anyone been to America is it worse in canada or America for racism?
I have a few Arabic friends that say the States is 120% worse. They can't walk around peacefully
Although I don't agree, I can sympathize with your mindset.
Whether America wanted it or not (although they certainly did), Western countries welcomed their take over of international policy, after WWII. The Soviet Union scared the shit of the West, and because of luck and advantageous circumstances, the U.S. was the country most fit to lead the Western bloc and advance its interests. Had the 20th century favored another country, say, the UK, Americans and the rest of the international community would likely, at least to some extent, see them in a negative light as well.
When you're leading the international community, your fuck-ups receive far more attention than your successes and diplomatic victories--because of its position, the United States is held to a higher standard than any other country, and its mistakes have more repercussions. I also think it's possible that Americans have grown complacent due to their nation's prosperity, and that some of them may not appreciate the importance of being well-rounded and keeping up with international politics. Additionally, I think much of the hate directed towards the U.S. is a result of envy. The same could've happened to any other country whose power grew so exponentially in the 20th century. Like all collectives, the U.S. is run by humans, and although we try our best, we make mistakes.
People should stop spouting their ill-thought out, anti-American bullshit, and look at the scenario under a more nuanced lens.
Americans jack the world around and are completely unaware of it. But many Americans eat left handed, dress like Europeans and are completely unrecognizable in foreign countries.
Everybody hates us but for some reason the rest of the world wants to be here with us. Isn't that strange?
I'll bet life is a lot better for you here than whatever shit hole country you came from you ungrateful cunt. I'm a military veteran so I hate ungrateful people like you. I've seen American men and women die protecting some piece of shit like you. If you don't fucking like it here then crawl back to that shit hole you came from, bitch. >:-(
Fortunately for me I don't live in that awful country. I have never stepped foot in it and never will. Your country is basically a huge reality show now anyway. You guys are a joke
