What is so good about America?

[Anonymous]

Man fuck video games and Hollywood. America sucks so bad. It is not like in movies or games or TV series or music videos or adult videos. Just a big greedy company and not a real country.

Even though I live in a 3rd world country, I realized it is not a dream country and Europe is much better and chaste and livable and modern and welfare and educated and elite. So my new target is to go to Europe, not America.

But in America:

• Healthcare system is terrible and so expensive, it is just a joke
• Racism and cops are scary
• Too many homeless, drug addicts, gangsters and ghetto hoods and not secure
• Very corrupted politics and greed
• Too many fake things such as movies portray that country as heaven
• Everyone has guns and weapons
• Most psychopathic serial killers and mass shootings and bullies in schools also
• That country always starts wars and sells weapons to the world
• People and women are mostly arrogant and egoistic
• Fast food is everywhere and food culture is also bad
• Very big and long continent and roads so it is so hard to reach anywhere and this makes social life harder
• Fake celebrities and scandals such as epstein or diddy...
• And list goes on...

US is by no means a bad country, there are better countries out there definitely.

However it's also important to remember, many things in US that's bad tend to be bad in just that particular state rather than a nationwide phenomenon. Don't like that? There's at least 49 other states you could move to first.

Both my parents were 1st generation immigrants, 1 from a former Soviet republic that today is one of the poorest countries in the world and the other from LatAm.

Your life is shit here? Sorry but you only have yourself to blame because my parents were at one time barely legal in US, today one just recently retired as a doctor and another will be retiring as a high school principal that started out as a maths teacher that barely spoke English. They own 16 properties and I believe recently for the first time they have 100 tenants at one time.

What's your excuse then?

There's a lot of bad things.

1. What country is better?
2. When are you moving there?

The trouble is that the USA may be bad (especially under Democrats) but every other country is worse. If you disagree enough, pack your bags.

Glad you feel that way, we don't want you here anyway

I suspect you're not living in a third world country as you claim, but rather just one of the millions of liberal Americans who hate their own country. If you actually do live in a third world country as you claim, you're in the minority considering the millions of people trying to cross our southern border to get into the US.

I'm a Conservative and I hate this country. But yeah, I think the US is an upgrade for third world world people, but for Europeans it's a downgrade

Our national parks and our customer service, and our freedom of speech and expression. Even though it's being threatened, but it's still not as strict as in some other countries.

Did you know 9 out of 10 people enjoy gang rape? ... they'll deny it, but it's true.

Cool back to where you came from. Nobody invited you.

I just saw some text from a page that has been deleted, - www. girlsaskguys. com/social-relationships/q5298576-atheism-freedom-discipline - and I struggle to see how it's not identical to my very first account on gag, especially the closing sentence:

"I'm curious where you get this concept of "freedom", because "freedom" is the state of "free will" and the concept of free will comes directly from religion, as in man was created with free will by God. Free will is closely linked to the concepts of moral responsibility. You know the philosophical idea that you get praise or punishment for doing good or bad actions out of your own free will. The word good for example comes directly comes from God.

Old English gōd (with a long "o") "excellent, fine; valuable; desirable, favorable, beneficial; full, entire, complete;" of abstractions, actions, etc., "beneficial, effective; righteous, pious;" of persons or souls, "righteous, pious, virtuous;" probably originally "having the right or desirable quality," from Proto-Germanic *gōda- "fitting, suitable" (source also of Old Frisian god, Old Saxon gōd.

If you believe in the concept of freedom, that means you believe man was created with free will, to do either good or bad which means you believe in good, thus you believe in God, but you choose to do bad because you want to rebuke God. You can't have a-Theism without Theism regardless of what your homosexual pals at your freemason meetings tell you..."

@Abu_Kaboom Yep, delete about 80% of what I post here.

All of Europe west of the iron curtain is full of bitch boys

America is a shithole. All of the problems you named can be traced back to Capitalism.

Nothing really, but there are worse places, for example Balkans.
