We aren’t the worst, but we’re oh so far from being anywhere the best.

I wouldnt want to live in any other country. America is flawed but best, and always striving to be better.

It’s crazy to think that with our history, there are people who really consider us a super hero or some shit.
But i guess that’s what happens when you have a country purpose built for you, and view everything you dont agree with as un-American

I mean if we’re gonna go with this superhero movie-brained take, I wanna know who this person thinks the good guys in the world are.
Because you could certainly dig up something awful about any nation to ever exist if that’s how we’re thinking about it

There are no “good” guys when it comes to geopolitics.

I can’t speak on other places outside of the United States, but when you’re taught that this has and always will be the “land of the free” while trying to sweep hundreds of years of bondage, torture and genocide under the rug and say to our face “It’s all in the past now” really drives home how messed up things are today.
Like, Germany looked at WWII and said “Yeah we did that and that was *bad*.” We haven’t had a similar instance like that here *yet.*

Did you know, the “founding families” are satanist? They do satanic rituals to keep it going as they did to start it. There are honestly people suffering sra and sometimes death daily and school shootings are a part of those things. Some people who travel compare it to some other countries, and say it is better because they don’t experience sra, and have found comfort within something honestly unsane, and around others experiencing hell.

while more and more Americans see their fellow humans as “other”
and are threatened by people who don’t look or socially act like them
the continuation of exclusion, fear, shunning, and even violence will destroy our democratic (dreamers’ term) republic

The US a history of 250 years. Most European countries have 5-6x times that, and every single one of us has been the absolute major dickhead asshole tyrant of the time at some point for some not insignificant period. So for the US being the big swinging dick of our current time seems to be fairly normal history-wise.
Only difference seems to be that we wholeheartedly don’t give a fuck about how evil all our ancestors were and we embrace it and laugh it off, whereas Americans strive for exceptionalism in everything, despite the massive evidence to the contrary – I.e colonisation, slavery, segregation, suffrage on and on and on. So for the right wing especially all these things never happened, or weren’t as bad, but definitely should not really be taught to kids, which is ridiculous.
American history and present are just as vile as any other country’s, embrace it, learn from it and ya know, maybe we can avoid it once after 276363628 tries

That’s too simple a take…. How can we easily be defined as the bad guys if we have allies across the globe?
America ISN’T perfect especially domestically but we aren’t a theocratic conservative state, a dictatorship, or anything so dramatic.

Falling for the trap of describing a country of people as a singular entity. I’m striving to be better, therefore at least one very small part of the country is striving to be better.

So many people think that developing empathy for others is akin to be persecuted.

Every country is either the bad guy at some point or has a population under 10 million.
The US is not uniquely “the bad guy.”
With that being said, the USA has done a lot of good in the world, and is not uniquely the “good guy” either.
