I despise the redneck "good ole boys" club. I am against police brutality and all other forms of hate, racism, etc. I am for peace and tolerance.
Does America have problems. Absolutely. Does your country have problems. Really?
This is where I was born. This is where my family lives. This is where many of my friends live.
Do I recognize that things could be better here? Yes.
Would I hesitate to split your skull with my rifle, If we as soldiers ever met on the front line in battle? Fuck No.
Would I ever want that to actually happen. No fucking way.
There are a lot of good people in America. People that actually care about you and would help you in any way they could, if you were in despair or in need. The way you portray All of us in general is completely inaccurate. You too are driven by media and propaganda. You do not live here, and you do not "REALLY" know what its like.
Maybe you should kindly, just shut the fuck up, and worry about your own countries fucking problems. Because in reality, we are no different, you and me. We both suffer from the human condition and both have the same needs and desires.
So instead of spewing all of your hatred toward our country and its people, maybe find some similarities that could help bridge the gap between our cultures.

Great post
I've lived overseas for 5 years without stepping foot back in America so I have an outside view of my country and don't go for the "America is better than everyone. Most powerful in the world. Greatest nation in the world" bullshit. But the foreign pro Trump Pro Putin nics on GFY are very one dimensional. If you are an American against Trump & Putin you are automatically one thing, their enemy. And being "their enemy" they'll call you shit names daily, support lies for "their team" and tell you how they think you should live in your country .. daily. This is unprecedented for any members of any other country here on gfy.
Foreign input is appreciated, but the constant hate nics hating on Americans who don't support Trump & Putin is transparent and shows they have a weak hand and they know it.
We call those fanatics redhats. A fun name to identify them, not demeaning. They call Americans all sorts of evil negative shit if they don't support Trump & Putin, that's where the difference lies in GFY.
If you can't win a political argument based on merit alone you are on the wrong side of history.
