Thread: Why you don't like Americans. (Those from United States)

Now that I love America, I'll list some reasons for why they're not so bad.

1- It's funny to make fun of their many funny accents.
2- "America, you so fine
You so fine you
Blow my mind;
America".
3- MTV, along with Bevis & Butthead, are quality (verified by the number of us who watch) productions.
4- Real gun-control laws are almost non-existent. Personally, I'm hoping to save up enough for that M-16 assult rifle I've always wanted, which is perfectly legal.
5- The American national anthem is much easier to remember than the one my country has. That's because I hear more often on TV, the radio, and in movies.
6- They are da bomb. I mean, they've got the bomb.

I think it's funny that this thread started off as satire and now everyone's taking it all seriously. "Why, yes, I do hate Americans." Heh.

All this political correctness BS and the blind arrogance that Americans show towards other people is rather disgusting. The Iraq incident was just the recent phase in a long story.

With regard towards typical American attitudes towards Russia; I hate to be frank, but it hasnt changed one bit since the Cold War. There are few if any positive potrayals of Russians in America; largely the stereotype of the drunken idiots. Oh yes, and Russian women want nothing more than to sleep with America men.

And then one just has to love America's policy towards Russia in foreign affairs. America seems determined to start another Cold War, with pushing for the expansion of NATO onto Russia's front door. Sadly there are only a few voices, like Pat Buchanan, who are warning against this.

So yes there's much to angry about in America. Sadly its not even America anymore, its a completely different country and completely different culture.

the fact is most people who hate americans actually hate the American Government Policies in the first place then they continue to generalize it to americans. I don't hate americans in the first place, but there are certain ocassions where I really hate them, but remains quiet and try to offend them by showing that they are NOT as smart as they think. Yeah, and that occassion is when I meet american who is racist. I've experienced some very nice relationship with americans until few months ago an american come to me and say that most of asians are only copycat and a bunch of stupid people, this really annoy me . Only in that occassion I hate americans. Sometimes americans come to my country and acts like they are "the super hero to save us" (at least to some of my friend's point of view), but I don't care too much about it , not until they start to offend me .

6- As with my gripe about TV, the same goes for music. Because its cultural influence is so far reaching and powerful, 'America' is a major reason why many quality groups and artists in my country don't make it internationally. (Sure, there have been a few cases, but the ratio of them to Americans making it big is like 1:10000000000000000000

I mean the list goes on and on. You know, Unless it's rap... it's nearly impossible to turn on the TV in america and not see see a show, or song with someone who isn't from america.

It's a global community, everybodies culture is invading everywhere else.
so i suggest that you stop being a politician and turning the facts to your favor... it just depends on how you look at the information.

[correction]when I meet Americans who are racist (who the hell uses the word "racialist"? I know it's a word, but damn...).[/correction]

The most racist people I've met are Asians.

But I digress... I, personally, hate Americans because we're so cocky and rich and powerful and are the economic captial of the world and because everyone listens to us and because people can be born poor and die rich and because we have so much technology and so many services here... bitches. I can't wait to leave.

BEST CONGRATULATIONS WITH THE INDEPENDENCE DAY TO THE AMERICANS AND TO ALL WHO CELEBRATE IT!!!

Like I said, a minority. But still, these people are a lil' suspect... except for Mel.

Crowe is from New Zealand.

As mentioned beforehand, Irwin's a fool and an embarisment.

The thing you have to understand is, yes, these actors 'come' from Australia, but they go to America to make their movies. Unless someone told you that, say, Crowe or especially Kidman were 'Australian', you'd just assume they were American actors bungin' accents for their roles

Once again, Irwin's an idiot and I wish he'd just shutup

Hmmm, hating Americans.
First off, I have seen more racism in just about every other culture. America is more or less a massive mixture of races and cultures, so it's going to be hard to survive in American society without giving up most or all racial ideals.
None the less, it still exists to some extent. White people are discriminated by blacks in some parts of the country, while blacks are discriminated by whites in other parts. The masses of the American population doesn't seam to even think about racial differences though.
America is facing moral decay, but most foreign countries are ahead of America in that department.
It seams that most foreign countries hate Americans for pretty much the same reasons that the Islamic radicals hate western cultures.
They themselves have hard lives and problems, and through their own social miens, they hate us for being better off.
Well, guess what, foreign countries are just as capable as America. Your failure to be as well off has to do with your infrastructure and lifestyles.
Everyone out their has the ability to make well, but in stead, they feed on Americas charity and protection and gripe at us for having a strong infrastructure they hate, while their own is falling apart.

44 claps.

well said brother, I cried.

You have so much anger, but I don't even think you understand what you're upset about.

I agree with you that America has a whole lot of problems, but it's still, overall, a much better place to live than anywhere else.

Save maybe New Zealand, Ireland, or Western Canada -- though they just might be personal preferences.

Don't let the door hit you on the butt on the way out.

Heh, since we're generalising, who says Americans don't 'get' irony?

I 'got' it. Haha. Didn't mean to come off as 'another' acrimonious American.
