There's a lot of people in America, and for the few that are on the evening news every night that do all these horrible things, whatever. it's probably the same ratio here in canada and in most other places. and contrary to popular belief not all americans are over weight...OMG!

keep it steezy

i can see how we look like the guy with the biggest gun trying to play government dominant, but in all honesty, we're just a hard working country that knows how to bargain and not take shit.
If by 'bargain' you mean invade other countries when they elect people the US government doesn't like, and prop up military dictatorships they do like, then yeah, i agree. As for 'not taking shit', you are totally on point. One of the only problems is, because the US has the largest military in history, and spends more than the next few biggest countries together, it can afford to not take shit.  Countries that don't wantt o take the US's shit have a problem.


A dictator is an authoritarian ruler (e.g. absolutist or autocratic) who assumes sole and absolute power without hereditary ascension such as an absolute monarch. so people like it when a ruler instates them self as leader, with absolutly no right,  and they have no say in it, and can do nothing to control the ruler? sounds just frickin jolly to me

i can understand why so many people hate america. but i can also understand that as a kid, everybody hated the principals at school, but even though he was an ass, he was the one that stopped all of the chaos. personally i think that america is a fucking rad country, and if you don't like it, then get off the planet because america doesn't just buy off the entire world, it buys what it can and then the rest of it sells itself to us. i can see how we look like the guy with the biggest gun trying to play government dominant, but in all honesty, we're just a hard working country that knows how to bargain and not take shit. if you're so worried about how the world is going, i think it's stupid to bitch about it and say that it's only america's fault. i think it's fair to say that sweden isn't running to all the poor people's aid.

as for why we're not sharing the wealth. why should we? so that there can be an international welfare system raising cattle that knows nothing but how to leach off of a system. i'm sure that it would lead to a prosperous generation full of economic leaches who don't know what to do without the big powerful americans giving them cherity. as for why we haven't cured all of the worlds diseases, anybody who thinks that america should attempt such a thing is a moron. there always have been diseases and always shall be. you can cure a person or two, but if we have a world that promotes curing EVERYTHING they have, then we will never evolve. OH, let's not forget to mention that diseases can form immunities to antibiotics. by trying to cure everything nature swings our way, you're engineering new, more deadly diseases that will devistate even more than the poor countries. don't fuck with the subject of biology, i will kick your ass at THAT and snowboarding ability has no fucking thing to do with it.

sure thinking about how great it would be if the almighty USA would come to the rescue of the entire world. however, i think that the rest of the world would be better off being self-sufficient.

still think america is horrible? then fuck you, when was the last time you made a donation you smug prick. somebody used a quote in here earlier, so now i'll use one that i believe: he with the gold, makes the rules. is america selfish? yes. but i think that's just because in general are selfish. we have some bad polititians, but when was the last time you saw a good polititian in the news? also ask yourself this, when was the last time a good politiatian was news-worthy?

the next time you say america's decisions suck, think about what the results are going to be in long term. what could seem like a little good could create a horrible weakness, and what could seem horrible, could be neccesary discipline.

i know that I'M sick of hearing everybody saying "fuck america" and "americans are so dumb" but if you're about to insult MY country with mother fucking statements that have handed down from some fucking comunist, then you better have your shit backed up because i will correct you because, to me, this is THE greatest country to live in.
 
That was a clever statement.

Why does everyone hate amreicans? i  dont get it.....



Why do people dislike America? The reasons are not complex. Americans are selfish. Americans never send aid or money or export technology to any country. They keep all of their food to feed themselves. When they consume 25% of the worlds resources, they squander them. They've never used any of it for the benefit of mankind. When natural disasters occur, don't bother asking America for help. On the other hand, should there be natural disasters there, they willingly accept all the aid and help that other countries so unselfishly stow upon them. What in the world are they doing over there? Why don't they use some of those squandered resources to find cures for disease, to discover better ways to get more wheat and rice and other foods from the earth? Why not use it to help improve technologies? Why not use that technology to help us to better define our place in the universe, or to make it possible for all the peoples of the world to instantly communicate with each other, or use it so that peoples everywhere have instant, unabridged accesses to all the news and events that affect them? And better yet, when they do have the technology, make it free for the rest of the world, so the rest of the world can bash them and curse them and perhaps, yes perhaps even help kill them. How arrogant of them! They are pigs! They care only for themselves. Just because they spend billions of dollars each year on foreign aid that goes to any country that needs it, well, that doesn't count for anything. They are only doing so to export their capitalistic beliefs, and their genetically altered corn. For free? Yes, but that is only because they have so much they don't have a place to store it. Americans are arrogant. That is why we should hate them. No Aussie, no Brit, no Canadian or Afghani or Pakistani have ever been arrogant about anything. Arrogance is a totally American phenomenon.

Americans. Each day on the 24-hour news channels that they made possible they see people around the world burn their flags, hang their leaders in effigy, and spit at them, and teach their children and grandchildren to do the same so that this hatred will last for generations to come. Yet, they do nothing. How stupid of them. Each year, millions of people from around the world come to their shores looking for respect and opportunity and freedom of religion, freedom of speech and press, freedom to congregate, and to use up even more of the world's resources. They let them in. Again, how stupid of them.


bitchass ricky lake watching racist sons of bitches.

Clearly pissed he cant live in America and hates his country. I hate how we take in the people who dislike their country and are looking for new beginnings or "freedom." Stay in your own damn country with your own damn problems if you don't like it. We should have no obligation to help out countries as much as we already do. Without America, many countries would be fucked.


excuse me!?
im not an american, im a swede who dislike the way your country is ran! if america would solve theire own fucking problems before raping everyone else ill be happy.

"arabs is the devil", "islam is the cause of every problem in the world"! niggha please.
america even get the "brothers" to go against eachother.
television tells you what to do, oprah tells you what to wear, american idol who to be and fox news what to believe.

GO FUCKURSELF, nazi scum!


umm sorry to point this out to you but the reason that the us debt so freakin high is becuase we try to do so many freakin charity projects in other countries. like save iraq and afghanistan. and save the french, poland and a bunch of the european countries for germany. and going to vietnam for no reason really. and the korean war. seriously though give us a break. moms watch opera. pricks watch american idol. i don't watch fox news, so get your head out of your butt and maybe youd understand we're just like everybody else. not your sterotypical hollywood snob or whatever you think it is. seriously chill. hate our government and the people who run it if you want, but why us???? you dont know me, you dont know my brother, or my friends. we have foreign exchange students theyr the same except they speak a different language. seriously dont be such a hater

I recon that any Canadian that hates Americans is just truly ignorant, arogant, and naive all in one. I wish I was American so I could piss more people off. Americans are dope and the exact same as Canadians except in the USA laws are stricter yet it's easier to get guns. The getting guns part is a deffinitley a plus side to the USA.

out of curiosity i clicked on this thread, ended up reading almost the whole thing, feel slightly stupider for having done so and now wonder why it was revived.  i also noticed that the shithead briii retracted everything she said and eventually stopped posting (thank God!) SHE is the reason people dislike America (capitalize that shit yo) and she, unfortunately makes up a good portion of the population.  (of the world.)  and to that sweedish prick, FUCK YOU.  to any idiots who posted ignorance, FUCK YOU. to any elitist non-American-im-better-than-you-because-im-not-American-and-can-neutrally-bash-America, FUCK YOU MY FRIENDS. end
oh and to the Canadian who made the comment about the stereotypes of them, let me get this straight- you dont all harvest maple syrup and eat whale blubber?  haha im just kidding!! you guys tie for my second favorite country, being on these snowboarding forums ive noticed youre pretty good people.  you guys are tied with Mexico, there arent any rules there and i always have a TON of fun when visiting.  cant wait to make a trip to Canada!

Did you REALLY just write that?
Do you truly believe what you wrote? or are you just another idiot brainwashed by the media into believe that sorta bullocks?



As per being Canadian and being compared to American's, you must be even more of an idiot.
Canadian's aren't "basically the same thing but the USA laws are stricter, and gun control easier".

If that were the case, then why is it that when almost all American's who travel the world DON'T actually admit to being American. Most of the time they say they're from Canada.... and why's that?? PErhaps because the rest of the world respects Canada. I blame it on our Beavertails and Poutine.

Um I've met alot of Americans.  None of them have said they're from anywhere but USA.  Where on earth do you get them saying they're from canada?  That's just silly.

That said as an aussie I don't hate americans in particular.  The only people I hate are ignorant morons and I hate them regardless of whether they are american or canadian or antartican.

Have you ever traveled outside of your country? because if you have, im sure youd have seen an american pretending to be a Canadian, hell in europe this summer, I had 4 american people traveling with me for awhile, out of  4, 3 of them on the reg told people they were canucks, It was funny to me, because it really is true that in most european countrys you get treated like shit if people think you are american, England is a bit different, but the southern areas of europe and eastern europe its total hate america, its really awesome! mostly because once they found out I was Canadian, my desert was free! yippieS!

Nationalism=lame. Not just the whole "this is my country, and we are x,y, and z and I love it" side, but also the reverse America/Canada/Antarctica is "retarded" (or insert any broad generalization you have) so therefore we love/hate them.
 
If you think the government is corrupt/selfish whatever, that's fine, but do you really think that all people under a government somehow also exhibit those traits? That doesn't even make any sense. I believe that government is inherently corrupt socialist/democratictheocratic/totalitarian or whichever type you choose. The people of a nation don't always embody the policies of their government. Yes in America we play a role in electing officials, but does that stop the juggernaut of corruption? No, and I don't think you can blame the character of a people on that.
 
Funny thing is though, I see and hear a lot of self-criticism coming from within the states, but across the pond all I hear about is how awful other countries are. Why is this? Is Europe problem-free or something? You know, in a few of my classes (ethnic lit and anthropology of sub-saharan africa) I'm learning a lot about white superiority and eurocentrism. I used to think that Europe had drastically improved in these areas, but now I see some cracks (turns out for example abolition was primarily for economic reasons). The reason I'm rambling on about this is because I think the superiority-complex of Western Europe has not died but is thriving and strong under a different form (one that's tolerant and all-accepting, or so they say), and it's unfortunate because it just leads to all this generalization and hating bullshit.
 
Not that I want to get corny but, we're all just fucking human. We aren't necessarily defined by imaginary lines drawn on a map, especially nowadays with technology and the transfer of ideas.
 
We just need to sip a little iced peace.

There like kids who hate theyre parents. I think we should pull out of everywhere completely, both military and aid. Just focus on our own damn problems and say screw them. Then we will see how much they hate us. And if they really dont need us then everyone wins.

...global economy


Global economy pretty much sums it up. 

That and the fact that MOST (notice I didn't say all) Americans grow up in such a circumstance that they're used to getting what they want when they want it.  e.i. we're impatient and greedy, but think about it, I have a job at a pizza place which unfortunately has a scheduled "kids night" every week.  Most of the parents are ridiculous.  I'll watch a parent say to their kid that they can't have any money for a game right now because they need to sit down and order their food first.  Then maybe if they're good they can get some quarters for video games after the meal.  Nine out of ten times all that kid has to do is persist for 60 seconds and next thing I know the parents walking up to me at the cash register asking if I can give them 8 quarters for their two dollar bills.  Then I have to try to take that families order while the parents yell across the whole restaurant to find out what little johnny wants to eat.  It would make sense that those kinda kids grow up assuming that whatever they want is theirs for the taking so long as they're persistent. 

edit* reread that and perhaps I should elaborate just a tad.  Greed created the global economy.  Being passive about money and luxuries sure as hell didn't create it.  So when we raise kids in a manner that makes the kids think they can get whatever they want, that carries into their adult lives.  When those kids are adults and they make it in the business world, they assume that any capital gain they can get from "dealing" with another country is rightfully theirs if they work for it.  War, economy, charity,....it's all about money folks.  So when I say "dealing" I mean it to include all of that.

An interesting note:
 
I travelled for 5 months this past winter, around South East Asia and New Zealand.
Always thought the American-hating thing was strictly Canadian.
Nope!
EVERYONE hates Americans. English, Irish, Norwegian, Swedish, New Zealanders, Israeli's.... everyone. I talked to more than one person who SAID they were from Canadian.. only to admit later on in the conversation that they were American, because like I already said... everyone hates Americans.
And I will be honest... out of all the nationalities I met, American's were, as a whole, the group that I disliked the most. Loud, obnoxious, ignorant, and rude... qualities that I would not use to descibe many people I met. Except for the Americans.
I'm dead serious. Go Canada!

This is why people hate americans.

OK, maybe its more because most americans have no idea whats going on in the world and follow whatever they are told on TV.  And the fact that most of us are arrogant sons of bitches.  Both of which have been demonstrated multiple times in this thread.

Im proud to be an american, but im ashamed of most of my fellow countrymen.
