Personally, the U.S has many defects (less than spain, but its becouse we have too much) and a higher proportion of americans are patriotic that, for example, in Portugal, Greece, Spain...

If it wasn't for us then it is very likely that most or all of Europe and Asia would be under the control of Nazi Germany, Fascist Italy, and Imperial Japan. It was American humanitarian aid that helped put Europe back on it's feet after the war. We are also the ones that thwarted North Koreas attempt to conquer South Korea.
When it comes to giving aid to other countries in need it is America that is the most generous. We give several times more humanitarian aid and money to poor nations than any other country.
We have the third largest population, third largest land area,
largest economy, and the most powerful military.

A lot of it is, mind.
I assume you've read the OP?
It has a nice mix of said blind nationalism, coupled with ignorant assumptions that completely disregard facts.

^Here, basically, other nations just use America to fight all their wars for them, and when America refuses to fight another war, we are hated for being "isolationist". Yet, when we actually do fight the war, we are hated for being invaders and aggressors by the same people who hated us for being isolationists.
It's very hypocritical.
The global anti-American sentiments reflect the U.S.'s involvement more so in foreign affairs from which they benefit. They seldomly provide humanitarian aid without seeing any political/financial reimbursement. This, it seems, is hypocritical.North California wrote:However, on the Internet in general, the hate for the American people runs high, and hate of the South runs even higher.
Seriously though, the hate of the American people (and the Southerners), is extremely stupid, and people should knock it off.
The obvious reason why Americans run into anti-American sentiments more often through the internet than in person is simply because of the internet's ability to link people from around the world (thus exposing the individual to different viewpoints than from others within geographical proximity).
If you blame the world for thinking negatively about American Southerners, you should take a look at how your own American media depicts the stereotypes.
