A country with citizens who take themselves and their country way too seriously.

Most people will agree that a country is only a symbol and that what it entitles is its population. And what is "population"? A group of diverse human beings.
What makes the United States different from Belgium? Very little. Its policies and laws may be slightly different, and some cultural and traditional aspects are obviously original to each country.
But apart from that, very little seperates them both. Or from any other country for that matter. Our needs and desires are the same.

So why on Earth are so many people debating the topic?!? Many Americans seem to puff themselves up by imagining that the whole world despises them and is continuously plotting either against them, or at least thinking evil thoughts about them.
Think. Again.
I've lived in Asia, Europe and the US. My father is African and my mother European, and I grew up in a French system. I've been surrounded by different people from different cultures since birth.

I can promise you: we aren't continuously fretting about Americans.The only time we really discuss them is when we read the paper or watch TV, ie through the media, and we only really ponder the effects the government's ideas will have on other countries. There isn't any American-bashing.

Therefore please stop victimizing your nation or yourselves. Nobody (in the Western world, in any case) really, sincerely, cares.
US citizen: Why does the whole world hate the United States of America? We haven't done anything wrong!
European: Umm... no. Not the whole world. The only European you'll find bashing the States is an immature adolescent who needs to sound clever by hating some political figure, and doesn't read the paper so picks the only country he/she knows a little about.

Person 1: The United States of America is the greatest first world country to live in!

Person 2: Go outside any major city for 5 minutes then say that again.

Everything that's wrong with Western society can be found here: A country filled with ignorant, obese, gun-loving, xenophobic, brainwashed, Christian fools who don't know what freedom means despite shouting it around all day. If you don't believe me take a look at who they just elected as president

A beautiful nation, with many diverse people living together. The fact that we can openly critisize and make rediculous claims about the government freely is what makes USA such a wonderful nation. Many people bash America as it seems the "cool" and "popular" thing to do. Ofcourse America isn't perfect, but it's going well, and has been doing tremendously--especially for it's youth. America fought a long battle against racism, and everyone's rights are equal and protected, yet there is still underlying racism among some people.
The United states of america, despite it's problems, has many diverse citizens, and is overall a great country for anyone to visit.
