AMERICA: What people don't understand...  |
| |
| I read a topic someone posted that was called "things I hate about americans" the poster pretty much said it's sad that theres a burger king next to the empire state building. In China, Japan, Europe, Italy there is so much history... there are temples, shrines, churches, land marks and beautiful architecture... from centuries ago. America is the way it is because it is a young country. The only things America has of significance is Mount Rushmore, Old Faithful and the Grand Canyon. 2 out of 3 is the way the earth was built by god... and Mount Rushmore is just a bit of carving on a rock. We don't have history in America... you don't walk down the street and see significant things. America is a new country and theres really not too much here yet... This is why theres a Burger King next to the empire state building. If we had some really cool old church from centuries ago im sure it would be there instead, but we don't so it's not. | | | | | |

| | its true, no reason to hate america. It made me feel uncomfortable when I read her topic. But thanks for making this, makes me feel much better. I was playing Battlefield 2, when some people in east asia joined my (AHEM, Mini EscApe Server) They said, You are American! (obviously they looked at my server stats, and saw MY LOCATION, United States Of America. They said, Your WHITE WOMEN WILL SUCK AND DIE. I THOUGHT THAT REALLY RUDE. So I shot them all with an m4, and they sent tanks, and I plopped c4 and artillery to wipe them out, I drove a jeep to weed out the rest. | | | | | | |

| | I used to live in the States long time ago. I love the States. I love the Big Apple, San Antonio (Texas), Hollywood (LA) and all the things going on there. There are lots of things to see there in America. Not to mention, so far we have to admit American do make good movies! Even if it's a British movie, when the Americans play in it, they plays far better than the Britons. This is my honest opinion.:) | | | | | | |

| | I am British and I do agree with you on the movies part, you always go bigger and better but thats because you guys have more money to play with. I love America and Americans even though I have never been to your country I hope I can real soon. I think the reason you guys get slated so much is because of jealousy and the way you all bounce back after tragedy. No-one can keep you down so keeps your chins up. | | | |

| | I think a lot of countries have a lot of hate for America for no reason but then a lot of it is justified as well. We are misrepresented as a whole a lot of times. Everyone in America isnt like that visions people see of us so it causes people to think negative about us. | | | | | | |

| | yep you are exactly right!! i saw that same exact topic earlier and was kind of offended by it. but thats ok, not every country can have things the others have. One day we might have alot of historical buildings and such too. All of their countries and historical buildings and such were new at one time too. | | | | | | |

| | That is the significant thing we are missing in this country. We don't have the extensive history that the old countries do. | | | |

| | I do not think that our history "is the significant 'thing' that is missing in our country" in any way, shape, or form. It is a short history, yes, but it has shown much more progress in the last 200 years than any other. It's all we've got and we should be proud of it...not trying to knock it down. | | | |

| | Thank you. The USA is a young country, we have only been around since the 1600's. Our history and our development will be much more diverse from other countries, but that is okay. We are not trying to be like anyone else, we are only trying to be ourselves. We are a very unique and diverse set of people and we should be. We are a country found on diversity and immigration, the fore-fathers knew that when they wrote the Declaration of Independence. Think of it this way, we are a people who are different and that is the way it will be and that is the way it will stay. We will not change or conform for anyone. | | | | | | |

| | rogue...yours' is the most sensible comment that I have seen so far. However, let me just remind you that we have only been the United States since 1776. From 1620 to 1776 we were a British Colony. | | | |

| | I agree with you!!!!!!!! The fact that we our history come from the people and that we have defined the term melting pot is our histroy. We may not have monuments that are hundreds of years old but we do have history that is unique and worth respecting. We were the first country in the world where the leader voluntarly relinquised power when George Washington left the presidental office. No one before that time had "given up" power. We may not have that in a symbolic form such as China's Great Wall but we do have it. | | | |

| | That other topic really ticked me off. You don't see people posting topics such as what I hate about Mexicans or what I hate about Indians. Why does everyone pass such harsh judgement on us? Are they jealous? I really don't get it. | | | | | | |

| | I;m an american but I agree with other poster. Jusy because are a young nation does not mean that we have to be so MONEY HUNGRY. My point is when we have great wide open land why do we need a store on every corner. | | | | | | |

| | I don't think the term "money hungry" is appropriate. Those who don't have money see it that way but in reality it is the American way called free enterprise. It is not a crime to make money....some people have a gift for it while others do not and just sit back and criticize those that do. | | | |

| | Actually, the poster said she hated that an American would object to a BK being outside the Empire State Building. Obviously that statement is made in ignorance, because I don't think the average American would make that objection or that BK wouldn't have enough customers to stay open. But if you're going to present something as an example, you should get it right or you lose credibility. | | | | | | |
