Alex And America. Hate It Or Love It?

[cj]

I can see that many people are of the opinion that you hate America.

of these 'many people' colin, how many of them would be american?

the majority of american's don't like to hear how their country is viewed by outsiders unless its all perfect and rosy. for those of us who are not american, we see very clearly why you can't get the world to co-operate with you, and we have an entirely different view based on the different propaganda we've been fed over our lifetime.

Colin, you are one of the most intelligent and inspirational people I've come across and I find your posts insightful and thought provoking ... but when it comes to the discussions you've had with alex there's still a big chunk of arrogant american ego there that prevents you from accepting alex's opinion and analyzing it the way you do everything else.

You can't see it as black and white when your discussing the 'details' ...

for america
anti america

if you have an opinion different to america you are automatically anti american?

in many of the political discussions alex was called a moron for perfectly valid points ... and it was american's who were simply done with discussing the facts and instead resorted to 'moron' and 'your anti american'

I consider myself 'for america' ... because the big picture makes this the most beneficial position to be in. And because I think Sadam is a dumb fuck who should be dead already. Would you consider that because I don't agree with many of the "americanism's" you try to have us believe are fact that I am anti american?

I think its a shame that alex resorted to a lawyer to solve a discussion, but you carried on like such a bunch of meatheads he probably got sick of repeating himself and being called a moron for every non 'usa ass kissing comment'.

oops, now i've made a comment 'for alex' ... does that make me 'anti colin'?
