Why do YOU hate Americans?

That is your opinion, a pretty jaded one at that, but it is your opinion nonetheless.

Why do YOU hate Americans?

Is it that time of the month already?
I thought the "why do you hate America" threads come out like clock work?
It's too soon, we already had this months quota of threads on that topic

Americans, the demonym for those who live in the United States of America.

Good try at making a smart remark.

edit on 18-9-2010 by Bushido Kanji because: (no reason given)

Ahhhh those "Americans", we call them "Estadounidenses".

No, i dont hate them

P.S. Is funny, we in the South were the first to be called Americans and now it seens we are not .

Ah, you must be a native. It's nice meeting you.

The apathy concerning student education. If students suffer we really don't care. We feed our students crap food, when young people need to eat the best out of anyone. The willingness for some people to sell their mothers if it'd make a buck. As long as people get paid, they don't care who they hurt. A system that is designed to get people sick, then make them foot the bill. The vast hypocrisy in general. The football mentality that exists between left vs. right. Immoral and unethical people are rewarded in society, and in school we're taught the opposite. Food, and news, as entertainment.

Not that I hate, but just some sustaining issues.

People hate Americans because they feel they are all loud and obnoxious, as a previous poster hinted at.

Having lived in Germany for 3 years, I kind of learned to ignore the idiots when I could and lay them out when I had to. The one thing I learned is that you cannot change their minds and when approached by these morons all you can do is avoid them when you can, try and reason with them when avoiding doesn't work and the last resort is defend yourself as if they are going to kill you.

Oh and travel in groups of 3 or more.

just because I am against israel politics, I am anti-Semite, and since I am against US politics, I am anti-American ....

thats how the world of a dumb sheep works ...

at least, thats how their logic works ... its AMAZING, and it makes me feel smart

You are saying you have to defend yourself against Americans? I assure you that you wouldn't have to do so with my family and friends. Surely, there are many obnoxious American tourists, namely frat boys that think getting drunk and disrespecting anything and everything is fun.

No, I was saying that when I was stationed in Germany I had to defend myself against some people who hated Americans.

3 times in Germany.

1 in Italy and France.

My warning was for Americans travel overseas.

Sure Americans appear obnoxious and loud but thats from a view point often formed from outside the USA. Movies, news, docos (to name a few) do not form a cross section of the American people and that where too many form an opinion. This needs to be addressed by the American people, they are projecting disproportionate views to the world.

It takes all sorts to make a world, there are those in my neck of the woods who would appear obnoxious and loud but I can introduce you to some fantastic people nonetheless. Its the same in the USA, I can say this for certain after traveling there many times and can I say more traveled in the USA than many Americans.

i hate them because they keep voting for commies that steal our freedoms and our money

I hate all of the posters in this thread who cant come up with a specific reason why they hate Americans.
Like the smell. Have you ever gotten close enough to one? They REEK! Like their ignorance manifested into something tangible and then began to rot.
I also hate all of the LIARS who say they dont hate. Get real, you mean to tell me you dont hate kittens and puppies? I do. They're stringy, they got no meat on em and they taste like $h!t.

I LOVE to hate the foolishness that is America (and the rest of the world). And that brings me to my next point, I hate when Americans compare themselves to the rest of the world.

Just because we got it better than some illiterate, naked, dirt farmer is no excuse for allowing our rights, goods, beliefs, whatever to be given away or taken away in the name of equality.

I hate pro life and pro choice, I hate republicans and democrats, I hate the military, and I hate hippies.
I hate christmas and I hate christians. I hate the mosque at ground zero and I hate religion in general.

I hate burning bibles and qurans because you cant keep the fire burning forever.

Its getting easier and easier by the day to find something about everyone to hate.

I have a feeling that by answering this the question of the OP, I will be opening myself up for alot of abuse and flaming. I therefore decide to decline answering the question. It is a sensitive topic, and like posted before, there has been many many threads relating to similiar questions.

VVV

Nice to meet you too but no, i never said i was a native , i do have native blood but not much, in fact, at least is not enough to make my skin brown, i have some black blood too, but my skin is milky white, mainly spanish.

Now, why would you think i am native?

There are idiots in all countries, I have no more hate for the average American than I do for the average Brit. Being at Stansted Airport the other day and I looked around at all my fellow Brits and just felt ashamed. Many were overweight, loud and rude, badly dressed and i hate to say it , but pretty ugly. I was stood behind 3 very overweight young girls talking about how they couldn't wait to get on the plane and devour a whole box of chocolates. Brits abroad pretty much take the prize when it comes to idiocy.


As I have said in other posts America doesn't have the monopoly on stupid people.

Oh, I completely got that wrong. Forgive me

People hate Americans for many reasons. They hate Americans because when ever a major disaster takes place around the world they ignore it and spend their hard earned tax dollars elsewhere. They ignore the floods, the Tsunamis, the earth quakes and never send any food or water or shelters to those poor victims of Mother nature. They hate them because they never expect to ever be paid back the trillions spent on ignoring all these disasters. They hate them for NOT sending their best and brightest to protect them from the evil that is inherent in the tyrannical leaders of their third world.

Yup American deserves all the hate that can be heaped on their souls. One day..and I think it will be very soon, we Americans will start to really ignore the rest of the problems in the world and fix our own back yard. Won't all you American haters be surprised then when you have to deal with your own back yards all by yourselves?????

Even Americans hate America. I love the country, but increasingly hate the people.

A few things that popped in my head.

1. Rudeness seemingly the norm in public. It appears people learn their manners from internet forums.
2. Increasing disregard for science despite that almost everything we take for granted today is based on scientific discoveries.
3. The increasing number of people that are unable to distinguish between what's written in a mass forwarded e-mail or said by talking heads and reality.
4. The tendency of Americans to be willing to spend more for the well being of those in foreign countries than people in their own county.
5. Increasing intolerance of people who are dissimilar in appearance and culture.

Does this make me Anti-American. Nope, it just shows that I am increasingly annoyed by it's citizens. Maybe, I am just getting cranky as I get older. Who knows.

Um you really think that voting matters? They already pick and choose who they want in office anyway and just make us think our vote counted. Voting is crap and does nothing, they will have who they want in office.

Do you vote where you live?

Personally I will no longer be voting it doesn't do anything when most of the candidates are liars and crooks.

Honestly watching these candidates "campaign" is like watching HS kids run for class president or prom queen. It's like child's play and it's disturbing to watch that grown adults act like this.

People hate americans because in America, making 25000 dollars a year means you live in poverty. This poverty is hard with this internet , satellite tv, electricity, water, garbage, entertainment, 3 vehicles, and money left over for house parties. All with 25 thousand a year.
