Man I swear Americas biggest critcs are Americans themselves.

[–]vadergeek 37 points38 points ago

Well.... I wouldn't say that North Korea is overly fond of us.

[–]monkeedude1212 39 points40 points ago

Yeah, but they aren't very tall.

[–]jbockcet 2 points3 points ago

Hail the mighty tallest!

[–]barongaucho 52 points53 points ago

And this fact alone goes to show that America isn't as bad as everybody bitches about.

[–]ImAmericanfuckyou 9 points10 points ago

I know! America hasn't done anything ever for anyone!

[–]supersouporsalad 5 points6 points ago

All of inventions/innovations are completely worthless too! Who needs light, internet or cellphones, am i right?

[–]nxlyd 11 points12 points ago

America's biggest critics have no interest in Reddit or even a stable Internet connection.

Btw, I was born and still live in America, but do not consider myself an American. I consider myself human.

Man, I remember 8th grade

[–]Volksgrenadier 10 points11 points ago

Literally the bravest thing I ever read.

[–]Fapologist 10 points11 points ago

What else would you be? A bird?

[–]Spacehusky 21 points22 points ago

Btw, I was born and still live in America, but do not consider myself an American. I consider myself human.

SO

FUCKING

BRAVE

[–]AlvinYork328 13 points14 points ago

i am sad that you think that way. America is a great place to live.

[–]Cthulhu_Bloop 10 points11 points ago

Atrocity seems like too strong a word.

[–]hank1154 3 points4 points ago

You make me sick. Do you know how many lives have been given to give you the right to call yourself a free American?

[–]IcecreamDave 0 points1 point ago

The brave men who fought to be free and the British who did not what us free.

[–]nxlyd 0 points1 point ago

TIL only intelligent people have Internet access and care about Reddit.

[–]anialater45 1 point2 points ago

We acknowledge we have problems and we're ok with that. If you can't laugh at yourself than life is very dull indeed.

[–]Ianto1992 0 points1 point ago

Only because they kill or imprison everyone else.

[–]Cattywampus 1 point2 points ago

That seems pretty obvious in a country where less than 20% of it's people approve of the decisions made by the Congress.

[–]GotMyFrogHatOn -1 points0 points ago

*american highschool students and canadians.

Just the angry, impotent morons.

[–]Moofies 24 points25 points ago

Yeah, we'll liberate 'em. We'll liberate 'em straight in the FACE.

[–]Skinnj 4 points5 points ago

Switzerland here - We do not have any oil! We have your money but it is save here!

(Nice try CIA - you can't fool us!)

[–]eorld 2 points3 points ago

Switzerland... why are you so paranoid?

[–][deleted] -3 points-2 points ago

Switzerland here

Shut the fuck up, you pussy. Your bankers rolled over like little bitches when the faggots in the U.S. government asked you for info on U.S. bank accounts.

[–]jjgarcia87 8 points9 points ago

Yes, you angry peasant. I'm sure this guy had a lot to do with the actions of international bankers.

[–]delkaz -1 points0 points ago

He has our money... I hope he has a little to do with said actions.

[–]OperatorMike 12 points13 points ago

The 4th of July is about us freeing the shit out of ourselves

[–]Disco_Gypsy_Fish 20 points21 points ago

He he he. Like pooping? (runs away)

[–]24cal 28 points29 points ago

Wow, so much anti-american stuff on Reddit today. So sad.

[–]johndeer89 28 points29 points ago

I got your back! Happy America day!

[–]24cal 7 points8 points ago

Thanks friend :)

[–]xxx_blade_smokah_xxx 5 points6 points ago

Thanks dude, you too.

[–]fireline12 15 points16 points ago

Most of it comes from Americans too. I think there's just a group of people here that don't wont us to get too uppity on our holiday, like we can't even have a 1-day break from working on our problems.

[–]Sevsquad 14 points15 points ago

I like to call those people "up-tight cunts"

[–]fireline12 3 points4 points ago

Exactly. Not much gets done when you only angst or yell angrily about it. It's usually the chill people who save the day. That way you can get back to chilling.

[–]ToKeYMonsTeR 4 points5 points ago

I thought it was angry people with guns who save the day.

I guess they could be happy people with guns too, so long as they have more/bigger guns than the other people.

[–][deleted] 1 point2 points ago

American kids on reddit = least informed, way over opinionated ass hats.

[–][deleted] ago

[–]24cal -1 points0 points ago

THANK YOU FOR SAYING THIS!

[–]strapt313 -1 points0 points ago

There's a difference between anti-American and anti-shitty government, FYI.

[–]24cal 1 point2 points ago

I am not just referring to this post, FYI.

[–]ClemsonPoker -1 points0 points ago

Yeah, fuck off with your awareness and reality, I'm trying to watch fireworks!

[–]24cal 4 points5 points ago

This may seem to be obvious to most but I feel that Reddit is just a circle-jerk of hatred these days. I use to be proud of being a Redditor but now I just feel like people who use Reddit feel like they sit atop a throne of awesomeness. Like they can do no wrong and that they are always right and all others are just morons. I am sure there are still some righteous Redditors out there but the front page just seems to be the same thing everyday...

[–]arbitrary516 -3 points-2 points ago

Well our founding fathers would be labelled as terrorists by Americans today, yet they are hailed as heroes because it was for freedom. Turn it around to those we label as terrorists in the Middle East, and it seems kind of backwards.

But you know, 'murica and such.

[–]IcecreamDave 0 points1 point ago

Our founding fathers never blew up important monuments in Great Britain causing hundreds of civilian deaths.

[–]frazehaze -3 points-2 points ago

Got worse after GWB was elected.

[–]24cal -4 points-3 points ago

Are you still stuck on GWB? Get over it already, Obama is much worse.

[–]eorld 2 points3 points ago

Explain how... sure Obama hasn't fixed the budget or anything... but we had a budget surplus before Bush.

[–]24cal 2 points3 points ago

Wasn't Obama's big slogan "Change"?? I sure don't see any of that. Still in Iraq and the deficit is actually much worse now. Enough explanation for you?

[–]eorld 3 points4 points ago

Actually, as of last december we are out of Iraq! I'll admit, Obama's not perfect. Which is why I support Cthulu for the 2012 election (why vote for the lesser evil?)

[–]hackiavelli 0 points1 point ago

Have you considered following the news? We left Iraq six months ago. There was also the end of DADT, the Affordable Health Care Act, appointment of two women to the Supreme Court, and the killing of Osama Bin Laden.

[–]24cal -1 points0 points ago

If you really think that there are no US soldiers in Iraq I pity you. The US will he working in Iraq for years to come. Just out of publc view.

[–]hackiavelli 0 points1 point ago

If you mean there are 157 soldiers guarding the US embassy and another hundred for training the Iraqis, then yes. But that's essentially nothing compared to deployments in Germany, Japan, Kuwait, and South Korea. There are also no active military operations in Iraq.

[–][deleted] -2 points-1 points ago

6 Trillion added to debt, started military action in 4 other countries, passed affordable healthcare act with 70% individual mandate disapproval, shitty jobs numbers, unemployment above 8%, tripled down on warrentless wire tapping and also military grade drones over head in America...Gitmo status = open

Should I keep going?

[–]hackiavelli 0 points1 point ago

Yes.

[–]sprinkles_32 0 points1 point ago

LOL. You can try! I love how people think President = King... You think any president could have avoided adding 6 trillion dollars to the debt given what bush left behind? Individual mandate approval rating? Let's find the percentage of those who support denying people insurance as a result of pre-existing conditions! Shitty jobs numbers!? Unemployment above 8%... how bout we modify your statement to unemployment below 10%! You honestly think Bush would have done better? lmfao! Gitmo = Open... Obama and his administration would gladly shut down Gitmo, however congress won't approve us transferring the prisoners to the U.S. or other foreign prisons. Shall we just send em home? Typical conservative, no concept of reality...

[–]eorld -1 points0 points ago

Also, I think it's a good idea to raise spending during a recession. After the economy is back on its feet, cut it back down again.

[–][deleted] -1 points0 points ago

but we had a budget surplus before Bush.

Uh no you didn't. The Clinton "surplus" came from projections stemming before the tech bust in '98. He left office with a yearly budget deficit and a debt of 5.8 Trillion.

Typical liberal, no concept of history.

[–]frazehaze -3 points-2 points ago

Sure, I'm over it. Just saying that the anti-america stuff got worse during and after GWB.

[–]24cal 0 points1 point ago

If you were over it then we wouldn't be talking about GWB right now.

[–]frazehaze -1 points0 points ago

So I'm not allowed to mention old presidents? You're a gem. Haha!

[–]24cal 0 points1 point ago

What kind of gem? Hopefully a diamond.

[–]Disco_Gypsy_Fish 29 points30 points ago

Why? Cuz 'MERICA that's why.

Edit: Downvotes? Oh, I'm sorry. I thought this was America!

[–]Venturing_Lurker 15 points16 points ago

Nice save.

[–]vinunleaded0301 2 points3 points ago

THIS IS SPARTA!

[–]ChrisBlahCookie -3 points-2 points ago

No, this is the internet.

[–]Regvlas 19 points20 points ago

NO THIS IS PATRICK!

[–]johnny_van_giantdick 3 points4 points ago

An american website hosted on servers located in america

AMERICA

[–]Rockstar_Nailbomb 2 points3 points ago

FUCK YAH AMERICA

[–]T00LMaker 1 point2 points ago

That's a laxative.

[–]thebryguy 1 point2 points ago

[–]TheCynicalMe 1 point2 points ago

Prepare your bowels, cuz your shit is about to get liberated!

[–]fas3630 2 points3 points ago

Makes me think of this song.

[–]17Hongo 0 points1 point ago

I like this one

[–]Dosko -2 points-1 points ago

this one seems semi-apropriate

[–][deleted] 2 points3 points ago

fuck yeah.

[–]sivablue 2 points3 points ago

Just think what would have happened if we stayed out of WWII.

[–]johnnybgoode17 3 points4 points ago

Japan would have a couple extra cities

[–]jjgarcia87 2 points3 points ago

I know it's pedantic but I couldn't help myself. Hiroshima and Nagasaki are still there. They are both cities.

[–]J_Strauss 0 points1 point ago

Well, you actually did for the first two years of it. And then the Soviets won the whole shebang.

[–]Kalmah666 -1 points0 points ago

Its not like the US saved the world in WWII they were kinda sitting back and watching before Pearl Harbor... and most of the European Victories in WWII came from a joint UK/US/Russia/Canada/Others rather than the US rushing in to save the day

[–]huhtamaki 1 point2 points ago

[–]monkeedude1212 3 points4 points ago

Actually, for the Soviet Union it's a yellow star on Red. (Or yellow outline with red in fill). The Red star has been used in lots of other places though.

Since the emblem is meant to resemble the US Flag, the bombs just happen to be in the red section so the star is Red. And the Star is just as much a symbol of the US ordinance as it is the USSR

Been on my wall going on 6 years now :D

[–]Jabullz 0 points1 point ago

Hahahah. This is soooo good.

[–]suddenly_seymour 0 points1 point ago

The pic was funny, but I really upvoted for your username because that song is awesome.

[–]ThisOnezForYou 1 point2 points ago

Whole album is pretty fucking boss.

[–]BleedAmerican[S] 1 point2 points ago

never had someone recognize that!

[–]Rallerboy888 -4 points-3 points ago

Yeah... Song... Right...

[–]Rallerboy888 0 points1 point ago

Never heard about it. My comment was only intended as a joke though

[–]twilightcatlady 0 points1 point ago

I had to upvote because the votes were at 911. Carry on.

[–]enabler118 0 points1 point ago

I accidentally sent this picture to every manager in my building last night. Surprisingly, no repercussions yet...

[–]cited 0 points1 point ago

Be good or we'll bring democracy to your country.

Free the shit out of you.......if you have oil.
