It's easy to call another nation's population ignorant. It's also funny that in doing so, you become ignorant by pointing fingers at a situation you know nothing about.

At least, as Americans, we don't give much thought to your leaders. However, that never seems to be the case for other nations. Our leaders are all looked down upon and judged by outsiders. Granted, some of this comes from the fact that America seems to want to be the world's police. However, we could look intently into your politics and give you our opinions on your government, but we don't.

As far as the "world police" thing goes... I don't necessarily agree with it, but there's always going to be one nation that leads in the world's politics. Honestly, would you rather that be China or Russia at this point? No other nation really has the power to "run" the world. Again, not that I view this as correct, but there's not much else you can do about it. Obviously, the UN is worthless.

Another thing, many many many nations call out to the US for help, whether it be to use military force to smother some resistance or financial aid, America is asked to be the world's savior. I find this funny that we're supposed to both be the savior, but we're supposed to back off when it comes to foreign affairs? Get real. If we're spending money and resources to help other countries, we're going to be in the foreign affairs of those countries. We're going to protect our investments. If you don't want us hoarding the power in world politics, maybe your whiny countries should step up.

If you truly want the US to just be another country in the world's politics instead of THE country, maybe you should stop singling us out. You back us into a corner, we're going to flex our muscles. Do you expect us to just bow to your demands when you have no presence in the world political arena?

Finally, there's no point in trying to suggest that one nation's better than the other. We all have our pros and cons. No need to be arrogant and try to profess your nation's supremacy. That shit just fuels hatred for one another and gets us farther away from "peace" than understanding each other would.


whoa.
