Maybe you're being a little precious here. The US has the most dominant culture of any nation, more people are just exposed to its strengths and weaknesses. Yes I mentioned strengths as well as weaknesses because the US is admired as much if not more for those than any of it's weaknesses.
And I don't know what rock you live under, but if you've never seen criticism of north Korea, Myanmar/Burma or Saudi Arabia then I find that very hard to believe, and it's incredibly rare to hear anyone acknowledging any of their strengths.
I disagree. I recently traveled to Denmark for a UN- related meeting and I had to sit and listen to a bunch of Danish representatives tear the US apart. Yet when North Korea and Somalia came into question, they all agreed that: "North Korea is a great country with a strong government. The only problem is that the government has some minor anti-western issues, other than that, North Korea is a peace-loving nation."
The words they used for the US were: "war-mongering," "corrupt" and "a cheating state."
I never said that N.Korea, Myanmar or Saudi Arabia AREN'T criticized, I said that they are criticized LESS than the United States - which is wrong to me.
IIN to become offended when people post rude comments about the USA?

USA isn't the leading country for culture. But it is great in some ways but is horrible in other ways.
I disagree. I recently traveled to Denmark for a UN- related meeting and I had to sit and listen to a bunch of Danish representatives tear the US apart. Yet when North Korea and Somalia came into question, they all agreed that: "North Korea is a great country with a strong government.

That's a good point, and to be honest, I can't think of one positive thing about North Korea.
