It's not my place to argue, because I was born in the U.S., and it's the way I know, but I know it's nothing like it's purported to be, and if living wherever you live makes you so bitter and fearful that you view the U.S. as the big bad wolf, well then it's best that you stay there, and I'll stay here, and continue being happy while you continue to live in fear.
Its not about being fearful of the US citizens, or the place itself. its the policies,capitalstic ecconomic morals and the fact that through media routes have penetrated nearly every country in the world, oppressing 3rd world countries,supporting armed conflicts with hope of political gain, in britain now 95% of cinema releases are forgein(american),70% childrens programmes are forgein(american),when i was young and in germany (i'm 34) the kids tv was german, when i came to england late 70's english kids tv was english.
There will be a civil war in Great Britain in the next 20 or so years in my opinion and it will be between the americanized british on the side of the government/america against the european british on the side of europe.
1992 we had A glimmer of hope in John Smith of retaining our european heritage what we fought two world wars for but suddenly he died of a heart attack in may 1992 (hhhmmmmm:scratchin then came tony blair who noboddy had heard of and suddenly we are not just helping kuait we are invading the middle east???????????
Asians came into this country on mass in the 50's and 60's and after a turbulent and racist 70's early 80's things settled down.where i grew up there was a sense of multi-cultural community, kids hung round in mixed groups, we took on traits of each others cultures. I went back in around 2000 and you would have thought we had never existed. divided back to the social 70's.
You have to remember you never left after the second world war????
You are forgeiners??????
The people of this country did not want involvement in this war,it has divided us from our neighbours.
I'm happy that you like living in the US, but it is what your government does in the name of the US which is moraly wrong should be your concern, because it is on those merits how you will be percieved from the outside, and if there is something wrong with my perception, what is it between you and me that could cause this altered perceptional state.
