Well it's just common knowledge, a fact to every civilised person outside of the US that the country is the laughing stock of the entire world.vegetariantaxidermy wrote: ↑Sat Aug 06, 2022 3:41 amPeople from elsewhere can only go by the general impression that is given out, just as we as individuals can't see ourselves as others see us. There's not a heck of a lot you can do about that except change it from the inside. Are you saying Americans do NOT force children to worship a piece of cloth every morning? Do NOT idolise their military? Are NOT overwhelmingly religious? Do NOT have a gun fetish or have regular school shootings? NEVER say that their country is the 'greatest'? These things get noticed by the rest of the world.Walker wrote: ↑Sat Aug 06, 2022 2:19 amWrong by both fact and reasoning.
Sounds like you two watch too much TV, and don't get out too much.
Most countries are homogeneous.
The US is the most diverse country on the planet.
You get to know all kinds of people here, from all kinds of backgrounds, doing all kinds of stuff.
You get many interesting families as a result.
For instance, our clan is from everywhere and more than a few were not born here.
So, what's it feel like to be a victim of anti-US propaganda? Feel kinda sheepish, do ya?
Even some of the original natives of the US are seriously considering emigrating to the real world.
And what is their obsession with plastic..every food item, or material item at Disney World in particular is heavily packaged using plastic materials, and what's with all the plastic knifes and forks and spoons? ....haven't they heard of eco friendly?
