Tired of the America hate
🗣️ DISCUSSION 💬
This isn’t about liberals or anything. It’s about remarks like: “America has No culture” or “American culture is just a watered down version of stolen European culture”. It gets annoying to hear such rubbish when you’re a patriot. I’m tired of it.
I’ve also heard that America never was anything but a copy of other cultures.
I've traveled all over the world, too and let me tell you that I'm always so glad to be back home in the USA after returning!
I have relatives in Europe who would give anything to come and live in the US.
My conclusion is that when traveling you see the sights, eat in restaurants and see historic areas, buildings, museums, but try living in any of those countries even for a few weeks...it's not as you think.
A few years back I spoke to someone who moved from the US to the UK. They couldn't believe how hard it was to just get services for their apartment set up...internet, electric, etc. It was an awful experience for them and this is where people speak English.
You know the saying..."grass is always greener"...well, more than likely it's really not. Don't even start talking healthcare in other countries because though it's not ideal here these days, it's much better than many other places.
Many will give anything to come here. Not just bad people. And they don't have to be subhuman and part of some evil plan to want to come here. It's that good! Like you said, "anything".
Yes, so true.
Though many here have been disillusioned with what has happened in our country the last few years, it's still one of the best places to live in the world and there are many opportunities for someone coming here and willing to work and contribute to their communities.
