Anti American sentiment

Post Reply New Topic

RobertN rote (correctly spelled),

I am thinkung this should be in the mature forum. Since it speaks to penis envy.

Or is there another forum, titled "Narrow minded views"?

either one would be appropriate.

And i second the opinion that you seem like a bigot, who has a terrible time with overgeneralizations

About 51% percent of Americans voted for Bush in the last election (mostly due to religious/social issues). The other 49% did not vote for Bush. Hating all Americans based on the current government and the 51% of the people who voted for them is ridiculously absurd and ignorant.

I have dual citizenship with Australia and the US, so I usually let anti-American sentiments roll off my back. However, I live in America, most of my friends are American, and my father is American. An attack on my friends and my father is an attack on me. It makes me angry when bigots think all Americans are self-centered, self-righteous, and support the right-wing agenda. My father is a liberal, and most of my friends are liberals. They do not support the Bush administration at all.

When someone says that all Americans are ignorant, are self-righteous, have a superiority complex, etc., that person is guilty of everything he or she is accusing all Americans of being.

Sorry nickname to correct your statement,

In 2002 Bush did not recieve a mandate from the people, that they were for his campaign pledges, because he did not receive the popular vote. Gore received more votes than Bush. Bush won the states which cast the most total electorale college votes. Bush won in a compromising way (no need to waste peoples time on the facts)
Needless to say that he was headed for being a 'one termer' until the 9/11 attacks. this promoted a rally 'round the flag' mentality, whereas his popularity numbers skyrocketed. He took that to mean because he allowed the murder on many people and recieved the possitive secondary effects from the manipulation, that he now had the mandate of the american people. Since then he has been running amok in (anal) service of special interrest groups. Most notably the oil folk. Did you know Bush was from Texas. Did you know that Bush bankrupt two large oil companies when he was an inept private citizen. Did you know that bush owes many people alot of favors, due to his ineptitude (word or not?)?

The last election he recieved a slim majority of the popular vote. And in large part, because of fear.
His platform was drilled into the heads of the mindless sheep, " if ya don't vote for G.W., then the boogey man is gonna get ya, al quida is lurking in every dark corner."

I maintain and will always maintain that;
WHAT YOU FEAR THE MOST IS WHAT CONTROLS YOU.

unfortunately, government has decided to use it as a political tactic. Psychological wasrfare against its own people.

I thought the only anti American was RobertN. How do I miss this stuff?

I stick to my comments. Saying personal comments about me is not going to help your cause.

Yes, psych has a good point. You could cut the pollution a bit couldn't you as well - I mean you produce five times as much as we do.

MODS: Its time to see if you are truly unbiased. Would you please get various members on this forum to remove their personal comments towards me.

RobertN will you ever learn that it is american conspiracy and campaign directed at you and you alone.
Thanks for arguing through your actions that you are incosistant to your statements. You have in fact proven egoism to be fact, dispite what you may say.

Remember about fear, remember about how your greatest fears are what control you. remember how everytime you open your flapper how you justify my arguments.

Thank you for all your support

This from RobiN,

The only thing that seems unbiased around here is your hippocracy. It is at least consistent.

Oh and your grasp of the facts, and your understanding of symmantics

If Bush listened to every diplomat, senator, representative, republian, democrat, or citiznen, THEN HE WOULD BE A PUPPET. Sounds like people are po'd more because he doese things his own way, because if so many agreed with everything he did he would not have so much controversy. I dont agree with everything he does, but then who agrees with everything ANYONE does? If we did that, we would be a planet of clones or bots. Oppions are fine, but i agree with DrinkingT, ENOUGH WITH THE ANTI AMERICANISM, i have sensed a declining presence here, at least in chat, for JUST that reason. Its annoying, even if i was not American, i dont like constent and boring repitition. But, hey, these kind of views are guilty of pretty much the entire planet at one time or another. Its typical simple humans that constantly point fingers at one group or another for all their stupid problems. Its no wonder no alien has shown their face here, they are probably too busy laughing their asses off at how humans squabble with each other over the same crap they have been for tens of thousands of years. Robert, find a hobby and put that energy to good use, instead of namecalling and finger pointing, its so immature. Remember the old saying "the oppressors become the oppressed"?, if people dont stop behaving on such lower levels, this cycle will never end. And, despite all your oppinions, American, Brit, Aussie and what not, its just that, an "oppinion". Whether the U.S. Government is doing truly right or wrong, probably will not being known for sure one way or the other for decades to come. So why keep bashing each other about it now? If it turns out bad, and its obvious, then even i would join in saying he was a bad president, but honestly its really still too early to tell. and he's not much different than Clinton in many policy ways. I know few presidents that have had so many policy similarities. I read through many of them. Not just all the little stuff or details, but in the general course of actions. Under Clinton the U.S. tried to do things the easier way, in Iraq, GUESS WHAT? the easy way did not work. It took about 5 years occupation in Germany and Japan after WWII, and Russia, basically stayed for about 40 years.

Please, keep this civilized, and no finger pointing or name calling. Saying im over in Iraq shooting people, is plain stupid, im here in the U.S. I can not say first hand anything about the situation there, and neither can most of you. So for now, please chill.

Conspiracies? Where did that come from!! ! . What meds are you taking?

That just proves my point about what an arrogant bunch you are. You really do think it is your right to have absolute control over this world, don't you? Well you're wrong.

The point is that we won't back down.

Call it what you will, but we do have confidence, not arrogance.

Maybe its the lack of fog.

There's a difference between not backing down when you need to face up to something and not knowing when to quit. There are areas where Americans simply don't know when to quit. They won't use any sort of emotional maturity at all. Yes, I'm one. I can fake it, that's all. I can see where emotional maturity could lead us to great heights. It could be a question on an emotional maturity test. We apparently had hundreds of billions of dollars to waste blowing holes in a sand trap. Was that the better choice, or would it have been a better choice to use that money to, among other things, protect New Orleans? What about developing a spaceplane to replace the space shuttle? What about getting back to the moon and protecting the superiority that we worked hard for? In some ways our progress has been pretty good, but in some ways it has been horribly stunted.

When I was a child I was expected to get up after I was knocked down and go about my business. This kind of thing really frustrates me when I have reason to believe that it was sham. The people who responded to 9/11 the way they did have no intention of letting their own country get up, dust ourselves off, and going about our business. It took me a few minutes to figure out what was best. I went to work, arrived on time, and did my job. It's not our job to babysit the rest of the world, especially at the sacrifice of thousands of our own lives and far more money than our future generations can raise in minimum wage jobs. I'm big on countries that mind their own business and take care of their own. If we did that they couldn't hurt us. Weak is easier to hurt than strong. Why act weak when we don't have to? Oh, we're hurt and scared and gots booboos on our widdle knees? What could I have been thinking?

We've heard your complaints and we're watching the threads closely, RobertN. We haven't acted yet because not enough mods have responded to reach a consensus on what should be done. Because of course one mod acting alone would run the risk of being biased.

If Roberts comments aren't provocation towards Americans then I don't know what is.

You live in a democracy. You can't vote for someone and then claim to be innocent when they do exactly what they promised to do prior to the election. It's a government of the people.

There were 217,800,000 adults living in the USA at the time of the 2004 election. A vast majority either voted for Bush (59,834,866) or did not vote (approximately 100,000,000). A minority of people voted against Bush (57,339,988).

As far as I'm concerned, if someone abstains then they are complicit in whatever happens because their lack of action allowed it to happen. They are really just saying "I agree with the majority and vote for whoever wins".

What about people not old enough to vote?
