[QUOTE="l4dak47"] I know the third one is from 1984 ( just read that book a few weeks ago), but it makes no sense unless you really do think that describes the U.S. If you do, then you're very misinformed. I still don't get the fourth one. grape_of_wrath
It usually symbolizes the worship of the vapid and pointless. [probably has something to do with biebermania and reality TV.]

Oh. Well, most (if not all) countries have something similar to this.

Nah, these people you speak of are the loudest ones. There are just as many smart, fair, and honest people if not more. IMO, of course.

Well we do hold the reins of the world. We are a superpower that at this time is most powerful one and I might add won world war 2 obviously with the help of our allies, but none the less a victory. I think any country that wins a world war hold the reins of the world.

Tolerant

Kind-hearted

Overweight

Insular

Spacious

If you ever visit other countries, you'll see a lot more racism, or societies that have yet to deal with their identity despite growing numbers of non-white immigrants (e.g., most of Western Europe). Americans are also very charitable and kind (body language, greeting people, welcoming) compared to people from many other countries. It's also very sprawling.

[QUOTE="t3hrubikscube"]Neither perfect nor completely flawed. (I say this because I encounter way too many extreme and polarized views about the USA. It's not the perfect haven that some people (patriots) want to paint it as. However, it also is not the worst country, a disgusting place, full of idiots, etc. I know it's really cool to hate the USA these days, but it's not completely flawed. It has its share of flaws, of course, but there are also plenty of good things about it as well. I like where I live, but I can still recognize its faults. I prefer to take a more moderate approach.) :)

Agree with this. Sure has flaws but much of the time people lose focus of the good.

I don't think it's as simple as adding "with help from our allies." That leaves out a lot of credit that is due to other countries, especially Russia.

The Soviet Union, Australia, China, Great Britain, and the other Allies all played a big part in the WW2 victory. Where the US shined above the rest is afterwards during the recovery/rebuilding phase (Marshall Plan).

America is not a continent. NORTH America is, however.

America is a continent...the north, central and south are just divisions we use...saying that north america is a continent and america isnt is saying that south america is a different continent and in other words you are pretty much saying that the world has 10 continents...
