Everywhere on the web: “why are American children so spoiled?" “why are Americans so obsessed with how they look?" What makes them so racist and judgy. I'm an Amarican child and I'm a little spoiled I admit but I don't care much about how I look, but people obsess on how they look all over the world yet Americans are singled out on mistakes and flaws everyone does. And Afganistan, and all communist and dictatorship hate us to hell. I watched a documentary on life in Cuba and in one scene a mother and child were talking about the U.S military: mother,“the American military is just Latin Americans." Child,“why?" Mother,“they are promised citizenship, education and health care, education is really expensive there." Child,“it's horrible." Mother,“yes. And in the end, they get nothing." How dare they! The military is patriotic, brave Amaricans who are fighting for their country. My great uncle died in the military. And other countries blow up everything and bomb everything, it's not fair. What did we do to them?
Katlyn answered Sunday June 1 2014, 3:13 pm: I would say Tv and social media is to blame for the hatred towards Americans. I'm Canadian and I have nothing against americans but ya a lot of shows are american based and they are made out to seem crazier than they really are. People believe what they see. For example people who have never been to Canada and know very little think it snows here all the time and we live in Igloos because there has been shows and movies showcasing that kind of stuff. My point is people believe what they see. So everything in the news, movies, tv, social media has made people believe that amercians arent all that great which yes sucks but the truth. The only way to chance people's opinions is to show them the real americans and i doubt hollywood is planning on doing that anytime soon. [ Katlyn's advice column | Ask Katlyn A Question ]
