Author Topic: Do you think America sometimes takes too much pride in itself?  (Read 8237 times)

Obama is a better president than the last?
Yes. Lets just go with that.


Either way Obama kinda does suck.
Is it true he got rid of our precious nuclear bombs?

The US takes pride in bullying other countries into democracy and for oil.
We import everything and export war.

If they send nukes we can still nuke them.

Lol imagine if another country tried to invade America? They would be insta-raped upon hitting the banks

"One cannot invade mainland America, there will be a rifle behind every blade of grass" ~originally believed to be said by a Japanese general during WW2, but was revealed to be false (but the quote itself manages to still make sense)


Speaking of WW2, I like how we get all the credit for winning the war on the eastern front, when really we should be getting credit for fighting the Japanese, while the Russians should get the majority of the credit for kicking Riddler in the rectangular mustache

Well think about how almost everyone has guns in this country. Everyone will be in the fight.

I also have heard that some households are better armed than a military soldier/platoon (did I get it right? I think its Platoon)

This.

Oh my god, yes. And everything we learn about world history and American history in school is complete indoctrination. Every Social/Global/American history teacher I've ever had taught in a biased manner. None of them let students form their own opinions, instead they told you how to think. I was born in Texas, but I consider myself Swiss in culture because I grew up in the neighborhood of Witicon, Zurich, Switzerland. I know German, and I was raised on Krampus, not Santa Claus.

I'm different, and I guess that's why I feel American classes are indoctrination at best. They try to tell you how to think, and I do not like that.

Being that I live here, they kind of do

This.
I did a project on that a while ago. I did try to point out that the Soviets kicked major amounts of ass on a front twice as large as anything the Americans ever faced. The Soviets could actually have fought Germany, Italy, and Japan by themselves, it just would have taken longer. They had the power to kick anyone's ass.

Although we did help a bit by giving other countries and partisans some guns and stuff.
