I feel like this is true for so many countries and people around the world. What the fuck do you actually like about America? Honestly the US should be viewed by everyone the way everyone (outside of the US and W. Europe) views Israel. You all should despise us. I mean I like to travel but I would actually be encouraged if I got some hate for being American when I do.

I get a lot of it is about American media but g-d other than The Joy of Painting 99% of what we make is shit.

Often when you travel and encounter people who say nice things about the US, they are just saying that for your benefit. Especially if you can potentially become a customer of theirs.

Just respond by critiquing the US and they will often be surprised but quickly accept it and respect you more for it.

My experience anyway. When I exit this country, I take advantage of the free speech I can only enjoy in other countries.

I'm not White though so people may be more comfortable with me.

well i kind of do for all the us did to us, but a lot of you are cool.

i'm the exception too, most people here look up to you because of the land of opportunity propaganda.
