to you or any other person who may not like my "gripes". My "gripes" about past and present america stand. And my "gripes" are proven more and more true every day. Not much praise here because the culture is not praiseworthy. The culture is racist, both systemically and institutionally and undyingly bigoted. Slavery is over but blacks and whites still are dealing with the aftermath of that despicable institution in the 21st century, generations away from your pax americana oversimplifications. Iraq, same as Vietnam and even more shameful. Nope not much praise here and I really can't care about those opinions opposed to mine about so-called american exceptionalism. Exceptionally hypocritical in my book.
Be proud of your country, it's your right. But by your responses, I KNOW you still have some experience to gain. You'll learn. Maybe.
Be a "loving" critic, your right. Just not the way I will ever be. EVER!!!!!!
