How about when we defeated the russians in the cold war without starting WWIII?
How about when there wasn't race riots in the streets?
How about when we were still an leader in industry with low unemployment?
How about when people went about their daily lives without looking for a reason to be offended all the time?
How about when people could go to a political rally without fear of violence by the opposing party?
How about before a handful of companies owned the media and started twisting the news to fit an agenda?
You know back before Bill Clinton.

there's nothing wrong with change, but they are completely negating what whites want and swinging everything their way and wanting to rid the 'melting pot' of white culture. because 'we've been in power for too long'. this country was founded by whites, no fucking shit they hold power at its creation and then on, it's like that literally everywhere else in the world with whatever the majority race/ethnicity is. but, we have also adapted and made it to where ANYBODY can move up in the world. there are laws set in stone so that's possible. hundreds of thousands of whites died back in the civil war so blacks could be freed from slavery. get your head out of your ass anon

How about when the democratic party used to represent the working class before it sold them out and had to allow mass immigration to have the votes every four years?
That was pretty great when the people who were working and paying the taxes to keep this country going actually had a voice on the political stage.

>>77624986
The liberal's mind is inherently hedonistic. He has no ambition in life beyond his own instant gratification and subjective pleasure. When he hears the phrase "make America great," he does not think in terms of the nation and its standing in the world; rather, the only form of "greatness" he is capable of comprehending is the experience of pleasure. He does not want to make humanity great, he wants to make it great to be human. What kind of person honestly believes that we have never lived in a better time than the present? This is offensive to me as a human being.

Seems that US and Canadian liberals have this misguided perception that Europe, especially countries like Sweden and France, are socialist utopias where nothing could ever go wrong, failing to realize that these countries are collapsing as we speak.
Liberals are extremely narrow minded and uninformed.

>>77628522

the US/NATO was constantly pushing for the war to get hot: placing nuclear missiles in Turkey, inventing the Davy Crockett and then the Star Wars program in attempts to obtain an outright advantage, and offering immense wealth for defectors. despite this, western intelligence was completely and utterly caught off guard by the dissolution of the USSR.

americans can no more rightfully make your claim than they can claim to have been the most important contributor to the defeat of the Third Reich.

Bitch please, who actually knew what was going on?

Yes, and you definitely were great during the period after that.

And why no mention of the 80s and 90s, huh? Of course, the US was never great if you never focus on the good parts of its history.

There's change, and there's lying about history... something the left is very good at.

A couple of points...
>When it was largest manufacturing nation in the world, at several points in the past century
>When it effectively achieved super-power status following WW2
>When it won the Cold War
>As a more general point, in any time up to the early seventies, perhaps later, that embodied the same founding values and characteristics - the "American dream" and "pioneer spirit" so to speak

All of these you could say are "points of greatness". It's nice to see liberals have such poor memory. Maybe they'll forget to vote in November.
