Greatest at having their citizens proclaim how great the country is.

US government gets the nod as the worlds best when it comes to propaganda.

Most first world nations enjoy the same (if not more) freedoms as the USA.


IRS chases American ex-pats around the world for tax money. Freedom!

Actually, I don't see the American government being any more propagandist than anyone else. They obviously are pro-America but all governments are pro-country.

You are right about the citizens though IMO. The odd thing about America is the way the citizens create avalanches of propaganda of their own free will. It's like there is one massive inferiority complex that the whole population is constantly overcompensating for. It doesn't make sense to me since America actually is a pretty good country with a lot to be proud of. I don't see the need for so much twisting and exaggeration.

But there it is.

No such thing as in their own free will, people are stupid EVERYWHERE, there's a very well oiled machine behind that mentally of Americans. Things aren't by accident Muddy, come on don't be naive.

Think about the healthcare debate and how the US government warns against "socialized" & "socialist" medicine.
They have the some of the best facilities in the world but a large part of the population can't afford treatment.

There are many "pretty good countries with a lot to be proud of" not limited to the USA.

Mudcat, by propaganda I'm also referring to how the US prides itself on helping other nations, mostly after they have gone in and fucked it up.

Plommer gets REALLY horny when the anti-Amerika talks pick up

Daft, calm down pal.

Only fukkin dumbericans think Plommer is anti-American.

Plommer is un-American, he believes in socialized medicine and having a social conscience.
He doesn't hate people on welfare (the poor) and is not envious of the meagre existence they have.
Do Americans really believe living on welfare is easy?

Daft America has more laws (and people locked up) than communist countries. How the fuck is that freedom?

Plommer has lived close to the US border all his life and has been subjected to the unfukkinending stream of "Amerika the fukkin great" on the US tv stations received on Canadian TV. America can be a good place to live, not doubting that but there are many great places to live on the planet.

common

Serious question, specifically what is so great about America?

Is what makes America great unique to the USA?
 
FairWarning
People make dumb decisions Plommer, thus they get locked-up. Dumb people are repeaters.

FW - I've seen cops throw kids to the ground for underage drinking because they didn't put the beer down fast enough.

US has laws against everything, and once you've comitted a felony you're fukked for life down there, good luck getting a job.

There is no welfare here. Many poor people turn to crime. Several police officers die daily.

Like it or not, a social safety net isn't a terrible thing.

The biggest difference in culture between the US and Canada is the level of desperation present in poor areas.

Canada takes far better care of its citizens. Nobody has to live on the streets here.
Nobody will be refused medical care because they can't afford it.
 
Every country is patriotic.


In Spain and Catalonia, they are always talking about how great they are too. The policia kick the shit out of people here. I see homeless people selling shit on the street get arrested daily here.

When you live on the border of a country with a much greater population, and many more media outlets, you will just hear about it a lot more.


Duh.

Americans take pride in keeping their neighbors down. After all, you can't be a winner if somebody else isn't a loser. :dunno:
