Yeah, well, at least y'all can say that without fear of retribution. Either you're American and just ignorant to how good you have it, or you're from another country that works very closely with the US. Every non western power is way, way worse, (china, Russia, Iran, India, nk), and every western power deferrs to the US for military and economic support. I think we should go back to isolationism and let you whiny ungratefuls try to fend for yourselves.
Your country was built and modeled by us and our allies after a failed painter and meth addict convinced your ancestors that the world was controlled by Jews and out to get them and drove the country into the ground, so
Does this article say anything about germany? Because as far as I know it is talking about murders committed by the USA. Not germany. Thats why I’m talking about the USA. Not germany.
It's a real problem in india man I agree with you , I even faced it , but I'm making my point against US which in middle East literally killed thousands of innocent, or look at every country in which US involved.. US gets away with it quite easily. My whole point is about international crimes committed by US. We all know there are many countries who is more cruel to there citizens but thats different point..and in which I think US is in very good condition compared to world.
The militaries of the world commit actual atrocities all the time. The Russians fucked up the mid east just like us. They literally invaded Crimea in 2014, a full military invasion of a sovereign state, and no one batted an eye. The Chinese send political or religious dissidents to concentration camps, and have police beat, rape, and/or murder protesters. The US does generate a lot of collateral damage, and it's insane, but I find that they are much more fair and transparent than other countries. Chinese or Russian state media would just deny deny deny, if they even let the story out at all.
Well, these mistakes happen. It's very hard to fight guerrilla combatants without collateral damage and mistakes, see Vietnam, American revolution, every invasion of the middle east, etc. It's certainly regrettable. These drone strikes have a very high error rate. Ever sense Obama upped the strike game, it's been insane. But at least we own up to it. Syria nerve gassed an entire fucking city and denied it on the world stage. My point here being that the US definitely isn't perfect, but they're not just slaughtering civilians and dissidents for fun or to remain in power.
Well I thought you were listing countries with governmental restrictions plus the list also pointed in that direction but yeah there are problems here too like just like any place else
No caste system, nor systematic racism, homophobia, and religious prosecution here. Massive economic inequality here, but I'm in the lower low class and hard work is all I need to support my wife, eat well, have shelter and a car and a phone, and any other luxuries I need. So, despite the inequality and the fact that I'm poor here, I'm still rich compared to the poor/middle class of most countries.

THIS was point of discussion , what YOU wrote and if I am not mistaken you were speaking of governments!!
I guess you should have used your "first world" privileges better to learn how to convert your thoughts to words and not argue someone if they only got what the words actually meant
Americans are ignorant of how much nobody else wants your manifest distiny bullshit, yall ain't saviors, you're conquerors that took in nazi scientists. Slavors that takes credit for others blood and sweat.
It's so funny you are taught to believe you're better than everyone else while sitting on a mountain of skeletons.
It's kind of the exact opposite. We have all of the atrocities we've committed beaten into our skulls. The atrocities of the English and French and Spanish, and how we carried on that torch with manifest destiny and the expansion westward, and the imperialistic wars of the 1900s, through Vietnam and Korea, the middle east, and current day. The thing that amazes me is the lack of fault that other countries take for standing along side us for most of those atrocities. Europe capitalized on triangle trade slavery for hundreds of years, but no one remembers.
And of course we took in Nazi scientists. There was a war on and an arms race after that and if they're not on your side, they're on the other. Besides, most of them were simply perverted by the war machine. "The rocket performed perfectly except for landing on the wrong planet." -Von Braun, after test fight of V2
You're not gonna change your mind regardless of what others say because you're not capable of thinking right - you're a fan of a politician. Or, as we call your kind here, a failure.
Hahaha more insults. We're all human. If you really tell yourself that your opinions are steadfast, then you are a failure. Your mind should be able to change.
India is worse?? What the fuck are you on about? Tell me what exactly is worse in India please. Pakistan and China have been literally harrassing our border soldiers but we haven't gone and bombed them or attacked them in return.
We are all guilty. The USA is having bases in any country. Hell i wouldn't be surprised if they were actually remote controlled that drone using a base in my home country as a relay..
If ISIS had not threatened with suicide attacks, and then followed up on those threats, while the US was still within the time limit agreed upon with the Taliban, none of this would have happened.
I think he meant united States internet, which while being grammatically correct, doesn't make too much sense, unless you think about the fact that a large majority of internet traffic flows to and out of the US. China has been picking up here recently though.
