I can't help but notice regardless what I stumble on that involves America there has to be that angry crowd that bashes it to no end.
Constantly being called the worst, and overall just a bad country.
Is this even justified?

ISIS kills thousands of muslims, and America attempts to battle them, end result, muslims bashing America, cause "Oil."
Americans engage in a war to protect jews, America = bad.
America relocates japanese in camps, because they're under suspicion and could possibly be one of the biggest threats to the country, America = bad.

America has a civil war over freeing slaves, America = bad.

Our government is pretty bad. Our politics is just ridiculous, but I don't get intertwined with it because it's not my business and I wouldn't want it to be. The fact that I hear this from so many people I'm assuming eventually, especially as a future US Marine we'll be going into a big war here soon.

I love my country, but we let too many people **** it up.

They hate us 'cus they anus.
They cannot be anuses, if they are anuses it must mean their thousands of immigrants who come here are all shit.
Thus making America shit, considering the majority of us are(recent) immigrants.

Practically all our politicians, I just stated prior who. Like I said I don't care to get involved, but I can see what's going on right now. I'll soon be in the neck of it on my deployment a year or two down the road.

Yeah and you're willing to kill other people for the people who "**** up" the country you love? What does that make you?

I don't know much about other countries and their amount of freedom.

The America bashing is indeed unjustified. Yes, I do think they have made some mistakes with their foreign policy, but when people start spewing shit like "Murica planned 9/11" or "ISIS works for Murica" then I can't help but grimace a little.

America was named one of the 20 most democratic countries (I want to say it was 16th, but I'm not 100% sure). Norway was #1, pretty sure Sweden, Finland, and Denmark were all really high up. Canada was pretty high up, as was Switzerland I believe. I don't remember anything else though...

Yeah, I'd say it's justified. Why does your country always try to play God? Everyone knows Bush went into Iraq (and parts of Afghanistan) for oil. The "free the civilians" propaganda was nothing more than just a cover-up. Yes, they do some good things, but there's a lot more hidden and hypocritical information behind the scenes. When you're typically seen as some of if not the most arrogant people around the world, that creates a lot of stigma too. Not to mention, the average American is very ignorant to anything outside of America. I've met maybe 4 Americans who knew the Prime Minister of Canada, let alone historical facts about Europe or other parts of the world.

Are you stupid? You say that as if America is full of these people who "**** up" the country.
Are you trying to say someone is fighting for a lost cause, and or bad reason simply because they fight to keep their loved ones alive, and the people they have most in common with.

We have things in common with everyone. It's hypocritical to kill for that reason alone. And if someone wanted to keep their loved ones alive, wouldn't killing other people's loved ones be the single worst thing for them to do?

I hate bashing of any kind, whether it be country, race, religion, ***, favorite character, drink, food, or down to the your color of hair. None of it is justified, its all stupid, and ignorant. But humans in general, we are flawed, that is just the base of it.

You mean America's hat? You can find us arrogant and war mongering all you want. We can't win. We intervene and people don't want us. We stay out of conflict and people are angry that we didn't stop it. But that's ok. America will always be there for those that need us

Agree with everything besides what I don't understand, which is underlined.
I'm unsure about the majority of that.

And this is exactly what I meant. American arrogance is hilarious. You're not obliged to jump into conflict if it doesn't inherently involve you. Yes, if Canada or Mexico were to have problems that were militaristic, then America is obliged because of NATO, but please, don't pull that card. It doesn't apply here.

It was televised a lot and consistently talked about. Bush went into Taliban infested Iraq to free civilians which sounds noble on paper. But how does it justify that America has more "haters" out of that area than they did before getting in there? It's all about the oil. Or was.

Bashing is amusing to do, though I don't know of anything or anyone that can rightfully be bashed... besides Sakura.

I see your point.
