      I feel like this is true for so many countries and people around the world. What the fuck do you actually like about America? Honestly the US should be viewed by everyone the way everyone (outside of the US and W. Europe) views Israel. You all should despise us. I mean I like to travel but I would actually be encouraged if I got some hate for being American when I do.

      I get a lot of it is about American media but g-d other than The Joy of Painting 99% of what we make is shit.

    Even with the endless propaganda, I never feel like China hates us. The best the west comes up with are nebulous schemes they say they are running but they do a really shit job of conveying “hate” or even anything close to the tension of the Cold War. China has done a great job of being like, “hey we really want to work with you but you are not willing”.

    They should hate us though, the us govt seems to be adversarial to a point of absurdity.

      It kinda reminds me of that period when XHS was blowing up and USAmericans realized that Chinese people don’t really think about the US in the same way that we think about China.

      Chinese people have better things to focus on than jingoism.
