Has anything you've said ever made sense? Jesus fuck. I'm not arguing for or against America here. I'm not of your "My country is the best and all others suck!" variety, so I don't understand why you'd make that assumption.

I started this thread to try to understand where the hatred towards Americans as a people (not as a country) stems from, but literally everything you say makes zero sense. If you mistake my questioning as aggression towards you, I apologize, but I simply do not understand anything you're saying. I don't know if it's your English or what, but I haven't thought anything you've said has a shred of sense or logic in it.

they hate on America everyday....so let them....until it's time for some kind of a handout....

Examples:

1. All the people who burn the US flag during their demonstrations, immediately run to the supply truck from US whenever it arrives and then smile like they just fucked the prom queen.

2. All the countries hate on the US.....untill it's time to recieve some kind of humanitarian package... so when everything is ok in their country they hate on Us, if something happens they wait for whose help ??? that's right the US of A...

Suck it haters

Excessive exposure, and stupidity from nationalists that happen to live in other countries due to Tall Poppy syndrome.

Let's face it, we don't know much about other countries, except the ones that get the most exposure. Kazakhstan is amongst the world's ten largest countries, and even educated people find it difficult to name the capital; Portuguese is the 7th most spoken language in the world, yet I don't think anyone would know how to say "Thanks" in Portuguese without looking it up on Google, though they might get this word right in 8th and the 9th most spoken languages (Russian and Japanese, respectively); Bollywood is one of the largest centres of film production in the world... can you name three films produced there? "Slumdog Millionaire" isn't on the list.

This usually drives nationalists nuts. "How come Americans expect me to know their capital is New York [sic] yet they think our capital is Buenos Aires?" is among the things I've heard here in Brazil. Add this to the fact that no country is made up of intellectuals, and you're set: the American version of the ignorance that could be shown anywhere in the world is lampshaded and, because we do know a thing or two about the US, their oblivion regarding the rest of the world is seen as utterly moronic.

And there's also the idea that Americans are too militaristic for their own good. And overly religious. And, in a rather ironic twist, I heard many a Brazilian girl claiming that American women are sluts

Does this mean that Brazilian girls are even bigger sluts? I need to know this before deciding on going there for the World Cup.

because america was the only allied troop... FUCK YEAH!

Lira is partly right. American culture is so ubiquitous worldwide that almost everyone on Earth is familiar with it, and through it a weird, hyperreal shadow-play of the American people. You can't hate something you've never heard of.

But if you think that most people who hate Americans have never spoken to one... think about where you're writing this thread and where you read those haters.

Originally posted by Kenny Rogers whats wrong with you. he actually tries to explain it to you, and when he gives up because you are too closed minded, you sort of tell him to fuck off? you are the reason people hate americans, this shitty way of acting. get your act right man, u ungrateful pos. ive explained to you atleast 5 times now and you still cant get it, "but why me, what did u do" is all you can think of. do u even read whats being said or do u just recognize words as threatening and put up your shields. lol.

Now I'm starting to think you really are just that dumb. You haven't explained anything, because besides the fact that everything you say is barely even readable, it doesn't make any sense either. You literally suggested that to "prove a point" or to stand up against the government, someone should fly a plane into a tower or the Pentagon. What the fuck is wrong with you???

I could be butchering this, and I haven't the slightest clue if there are any accents, but my only Portuguese friend taught me...Vem Ca Lira! (Let's go Lira!)? I hope that was right haha. Anyways, thank you for some relevant discussion.
