At least you admit that the US public is drenched with propaganda.
I must give you credit for admitting that in public.
My main problem with the USA is its foreign policy and military actions carried out all over the world - especially since WW2.
I have no problem with the ordinary American people. Most of my relatives live in the US, My brother lives in San fransisco with his family and I have worked and travelled there on many occassions - I know what the US is about.
The USA's internal political system (not a democracy) and its economic and social structures are a matter for the people of America to determine.
Foreign Policy however is a different matter and involves everybody.
Trying to marginalise me by claiming all tis ANTI-AMERICAN slande just doesnt make any sense to me. Are you saying that I cannot have an opinion on American foreign policy and that opinion must be based on hatred because you dont like the questions I pose or the arguments I present?
Well, present counter arguments, facts and data o support your own stance. Simple!
It reminds me of people taking out the ANTI-SEMITIC race card when you criticise the actions of the Israeli defense forces in the occupied territories. They even accuse you of being a holocaust denier (whatever that really means) when you havent even mentioned anything about the holocaust or WW2.
Strange forum this one! Some very sensitive people here, claiming FREEDOM OF SPEECH doctrines but ONLY if the comments made by people agree with their own.
PRINCIPLE OF UNIVERSALITY: The USA ignores that when instructing its vast military machinery to act all over the world.
