Yet everyone still wants to cross borders and flock to America.

I guarantee you most people "flocking" to live in the U.S. aren't living there because they think the people are nice or healthy. It has to do with the economic viability and 'democratic' system in place.

it's because they want to get out of that hell hole they came from. but the problem with all that is once they get here they vote for the assholes who want to ruin our country, for it to be just as shitty, with shitty laws and policies, that ruined the country they just came from.

You Americans should take a trip outside of America (Something most of you haven't done) and realise that noone actually cares about what you Americans do. We hear about celebrities on a daily basis but we don't actually care about you regular... insects

The only thing I don't really get about the US is that it's a highly regarded first world country, but they are quite behind in the social issues department.
It just doesn't really match.

 but I've heard of ethnic Dutch people emigrating because of the perceived notion of their country being overrun by foreigners and rampant political correctness. 

Where the hell did you hear that? I'm Dutch and I can assure you that no such thing is happening on a big scale.

This thread is yet another reason to hate fat yanks, twats. How about you guys pay attention to your own place instead of trying to take over the world, then maybe you'll get some respect from people outside your shit hole of a nation.

The OP looks like a fairly obvious troll post to me. And even if it weren't, it's statistically unwise to generalize a population of 300 million people based on the comments of a few dozen who frequent a gaming forum.

I meant no disrespect to the more intelligent population of America, I felt my comment was in context with this "troll" thread tho and I hardly expected to see any of the other side in here.

It's alright, I understand. There are jerks everywhere, and it's all too easy to generalize based on a vocal minority.

Because everyone hates what is different to them.  Normal human reaction.  People typically describe different cultures or beliefs in perjorative terms.

The issue comes from the whole "greatest country in the world" thing in my experience... I am yet to see what measuring stick people are using to come to that conclusion.

I don't see that many personally, but whatever. I suppose it creates some kind of balance to threads like "Should we invade Syria, North Korea..." and "China-Russia this and that..."

I'll give you a couple of straight honest answers.

1. Your politicians are bought and payed for (not saying my countries politicians aren't), those who lobby have a bigger voice than you do.

2. Your media is highly disingenuous, fox news..etc and a lot of you watch it and are highly influenced by it, thus leading you to form irrational decisions like the NSA scandal, instead of focusing the deal on the NSA it is focused on Snowden, a man that is in my opinion an american patriot and brother that does it in the name of true freedom for you and the whole world.

3. Bush started two wars, one was based on a lie.

4. Obama promised to fix bush's errors but instead continued to expand on them.

5. You prefer more "security" and less privacy which is heart breaking.

Why should i care?

I care about you actually, being free as human beings, free from being lied to and manipulated, because if you don't change the continuous ass fluffing that your government is doing to you and the rest of the world, then s*** is just going to get worse.

I like you as a people, i've visited numerous times and have always been greeted by friendly outgoing people, i like your music and movies and general culture, i just don't like your crooked ass politicians that only serve their own interests.

[QUOTE="pspdseagle"]A lot of Americans just seem to think the sun shines out of their a$$ really. But I hear it's not really your fault. You are brainwashed into thinking that.lostrib

yes, like every other country

Not really. In many countries, you know that you live in a shitty country.

All governments are bad. You need these people, but they will always become corrupt dickwads. Basic psychology shows that when people are put into authority positions, almost always, there's going to be a huge chunk that takes their authority too far.

America's government affects every continent. Naturally, our population is observed for various reasons. Some emulate our latest trends while others demonize us all. I would prefer certain groups and organizations getting more international attention than celebrities. If they did, they might not act the way they do because they woould be ostracized more than now.
