I'm not entirely sure I understand what's going on here.

OP was making some sort of attempt at satire?

A very moralistic dude. The "can't we just get along?" type. Unless I'm being an ass, in which case I quite clearly don't wanna get along. You can't call me out on that, cause it's inmoral and I won't accept such behaviour.

I finally agree with you on something. Though with a reason that isn't meant with malice to other nations.

"Imperial Socialist Republic of", "Socialist Empire of", "Socialist Imperium of", "Socialist Kingdom of", "Imperial Socialist State of", and etcetera just make absolutely no sense. Socialism's goal is Communism and Communism can't properly exist if an Imperialist power exists, especially if said nation is the Imperialist power.

Well, if another nation wanted me, sure, I'd be glad to go. But for the most part I just wonder, why would I subject a perfectly innocent country to an American immigrant? I don't have that much contempt for the rest of the world. Besides, most of my criticisms are directed at the American government.

National Origin does not fall under the concept of race, race is far more complicated then that. There is not a separate Nigerian race or a separate Ghanan race, and yet the people within those countries, despite having different nations of origins are considered the same race. Now, Native American might be considered a separate race, but then that is far more limited then what you are talking about.


It may not be racism when you say it in general.
Its a whole other when you attack a person with it.

An opinion about a country isn't the same as deliberately insulting members of a country.
If you have an opinion about a country, go send an e mail to the government, its their job to represent a country.

If somebody that you said it to was from Boston, New York, or Texas and you generalized, and stereotyped your victim with it, and added epithets to it, you should.

This whole thread is kind of dubious to begin with, but this post went over the line. You're racking up an awful lot of moderation history in a very short time. Please review the forum rules and adjust your behavior if you intend to continue using the forum.

Do I get to do the same thing to Americans who say things like that about Canada?
Or any other people for that matter?

EDIT:
I think that the real issue here isn't anti-Americanism. But generations of people unable to handle any form of criticism. Americans aren't god's little angels. They, like everyone else, are normal people. America has it's stereotypes, so does everywhere else. Every other race, and culture and religion. So, instead of taxes, I propose that the criticizer should be allowed to go to the criticized and tell them to buck up and suck it up.

Racism is wrong, but criticism is a fact of life. And 'anti-americanism' means something different when talking to a republican or democrat.

It is still not racism when said to a single person either.

I don't hate americans, I just want nothing to do with your country.

Casual and sometimes violent racism from americans is something I put up with, in person, on a regular basis. So... I'm not paying you for my reactionary anti-american attitude.
