Don't think that you're special or something being an american critical of america. |
I really, truely think it's ok to be critical of the country you live in, so long as you just don't sit around and bitch. If you have a problem with something, get off your ass and fix it.
However, while I do think America has many flaws, I don't think I should be judged for it. Judge me as an individual, not by what President I have or by what some other idiots in the country I live in did. I don't go around saying every middle eastern person I see is a terrorist because some idiots attacked my country on 9/11. Just because a lot of people who do stupid stuff come from America does not mean every single American is like that.
I don't mean to sound patriotic, because I'm not necessarily proud to be from my country (I know we have done bad things in the past), but it's my two cents. Hate the system, not the individual.
