question for anybody not a citezen of the usa...

[InsertCoolName]

Here's a question for anybody that is a citezen of any other country...

I keep hearing that everybody hates US citizens, is it true? What are you're opinions of US citizens?

I am a citizen, but I can still tell you why others dislike us.

America has a way different culture than most countries, other countries are more patient and more open to wait things out, Americans (not all, of course) are more impatient and don't want to wait for nothing. When we go to fast food restraunts we damand our food almost immediately. There are drive-throughs that take less than thirty (30) seconds to go through.

Were so damn lazy too, we have remotes for every damn thing in the house! We have ten (10) disc cd changers in our cars because were too danm lazy to change cds on our own.

Did i mension everyone and their mom has a cellphone?

Maybe it's because we invade countries for no apparent reason (iraq).

/\ I'm not saying other countries don't have this, but were infected far worse than any other country, and when we visit other countries we can't understand why other countrys are so different and not as "technologically advanced" and so we deem them "stupid" and act like asses to them. And when they go home to their familys that day, they say "Another one of those ______ ______ Americans came into my work today and was a rude and impatient ___hole."

/\
Thats not exactly how it goes, but it's how I imagine it came to be.

Also, many countries hate the guts of the American people. They call them crazy for all the things they do, and they easily get pissed of at their superiority. Like for example; anybody that comes to the US, has to learn english, even if it is as a tourist, but an American tourist that goes to another country doesnt have to learn their language. In fact, the people of those countries have to learn english.

I can't wait for the sure-to-follow poorly-worded grammatically incorrect enlightenment.

other countries are more patient and more open to wait things out,

The countries as a whole are more patient? So if the country were standing in a movie line, they'd have a poll of the people to decide whether to leave, whereas America would, what, skip to the front?

Americans (not all, of course) are more impatient and don't want to wait for nothing.

We certainly don't want to wait for our lives to be over. Well, we want to know, right now - what will it be?

When we go to fast food restraunts we damand our food almost immediately. There are drive-throughs that take less than thirty (30) seconds to go through.

My goodness! Fast food! And you know something like that's got to be America-only.

Were so damn lazy too, we have remotes for every damn thing in the house! We have ten (10) disc cd changers in our cars because were too danm lazy to change cds on our own.

Show me a car that has a standard 10-disc CD changer.

Incidentally, did you know that CD changers are - get ready - not only sold in America?! I know - huge shock.

Did i mension everyone and their mom has a cellphone?

That would certainly make me want to discriminate against a country.

Maybe it's because we invade countries for no apparent reason (iraq).

If the reason wasn't apparent to you, you need glasses, hearing aids, or to be shot.

we can't understand why other countrys are so different and not as "technologically advanced" and so we deem them "stupid" and act like asses to them.

And by "we" you mean yourself, right? Well, I'd suppose not, as your above statements show me you've never actually been to a foreign country, excluding, maybe, Mexico.

Thats not exactly how it goes, but it's how I imagine it came to be.

Keep imagining - it's wonderfully entertaining.

Woo! I'm a retard! Bet you already knew that though, right?

M5, quit being a ****in ass! I was just trying to round up some possible explanation and anyone with their head out of their ass can see that it is verry lightly worded and that i was carefull not to present what i was saying as factual.

Yeah, you do that a lot.

For some reason that's entirely beyond me, you want me not to take your reply seriously, but then you took my reply seriously.

I love the loads of logic.

And I'm still waiting on that car with the 10-disc CD changer.

Our Frod Fairmont came standard with a 6-stacker, does that count?

 

[Tercel_driver]

Oh, btw.
My Tercel had a 5 cddisc-changer on the trunk. But I didnt like it. I rather have one slot and change it from the console.

 

[1X83Z]

Okay, have we reached a global decision that I'm not aware of which changed 'ten' to 'six' and 'five'?

So now I need to be shot simply because I have a different opinion on world events?

That very statement shows just how ignorant you are. Your "Let's go kill some people because there different" attitude I the same attitude is exactly the kind of bulls**t the world doesn't need. That kind of an attitude starts wars, wars where people die, fathers die, brothers die, and for what? Because ****ers like you want to kill someone because there different.

****k you. I don't like you, but I don't want to kill you.

Love 'em. Half of my family are Americans. The New Rome is better than the old Rome.

Ah, no no no! You didn't read what you wrote!

You said "we invade countries for no apparent reason (iraq)."

I'm not questioning your opinion - I don't care about it - I'm questioning your 'no apparent reason' statement. You're saying the Bush administration did not give an 'apparent reason' for going to war with Iraq.

Yes you should've.

Other countries hate us because their predominant views are more liberal and libertarian than ours and we do not act in accordance with those views.

On war, they prefer commitee approval.

On costs of running a state and social spending, many of them see the high taxation that may incur from those things as a duty.

Some of them are less religious. If Italy was the most secular country in Europe, it shouldn't be surprising.

Some oppose execution.

They also dislike our interference in world affairs. Of course, non of them are going to apologize if their issues spill on to our shores. Nor will they miss an opportunity to blame, or remind us, of how a given issue is our fault.

The only way that we will ever be loved is to do the following.

Stop bias toward Israel

Institute some fair trade policies.

Do whatever one of the 1 million UN related organisations says to.

Give tons of money to international aid.

And export nothing that local communities can't make a decent buck off of.

You can argue all you want how right Europe, etc., is on any of these issues, but the point is that we are not them or any other country, and our disimilar nature is hated.

 

[Talentless]

They also see us as a naive culture, if even a culture.

No... I never mensioned anything about the bush administration.

I meant that if we would just step back and look at what we did, we (the united states in general) would clearly see that the military invasion of iraq was unnecessary, thus, for no reason.

Are you being sarcastic? That statement could either be an insult or a compliment.

Were you referring to the four times the Taft adminstration attacked Iraq?

Maybe now we look back and see that the war itself was for no reason - but your statement that we attacked Iraq for no apparent reason is simply incorrect. We had a reason. It turned out to be false. That doesn't make it any less of a reason.

Your failure to recognize that simple point caused you to make some sort of cursing personal insult to me in which you spelled '****' with five letters. That resulted in hanker's comment (which was sarcastic, by the way).

Overall, I'd have to say you've been handling this nicely.

I could have been saying "flick you."

 

[Talentless]

We should get something straight. America may have been wrong to go into Iraq, strategically, maybe morally. But I've never seen a proposal that would have alleviated the Iraqis suffering, which has been known of for years, from sanctions and Saddam. It's not an outrages presumption to say that the rest of the world would have not done a thing, because of containment, et al. And lifting sanctions and bugging out is not a respectable strategy. One can't simply put themselves on a moral high ground because they didn't want to acheive liberation through war. Diplomacy can take time. And not the time it takes a slow web page to load, but centuries, centuries of hell for some people. But diplomats seem more than willing to pat themselves on the back and believe they speak for the oppressed.

It is arrogance and delusion to believe commitee pacifism entitles one to be placed as humanitarian of the year.

 

[Talentless]

To those whom I've now freed from such delusion, you're welcome.

 

[Mr. Snowtire]

Henry Kissinger felt that the American Government is trying to plant a seed that may take 100 years to bear fruit. They were the only ones with the military, economy and the balls to do it. America went through a bloody civil war and numerous growing pains to get to where it is today. Time and morale guidance from the rest of the world will hopefully heal the wound in that region. Democracy spreads like a virus. Capatalism is the carrier.

[Rossell]

OK dudes. I'm British so this is my opinion - note that.

Quite frankly, America is a joke to us. Gun laws, George Bush, rap. The general conception of the average American person as conjured up by the media is a fat 45 year old with a cap and a hot dog walking about saying "DUDE!". Personally I don't believe that because I have an open mind.

Its fair to say that we all hate American citizens whereas in actual fact it really means we only hate a select few.

But as a dig to my own country I have to say I've never seen a patriotic Englishman in my life.

And if you need figures:

With Georges Bush's visit to the UK, 79% of people were against him even taking up our airspace.

 

[Talentless]

Well, I'm not giddy over Bush. But yay us for our looser gun laws!
