yes
>Do americans truly believe they live in the greatest country of the world?
Absolutely
>Dont they think there are things that other countries do better?
No
Do you guys really think you guys are #1 in everything?
Yes
what grade do i get
don't believe
we know
as far as freedom, quality of living, safety, america is #1
some people don't like america because it can lack "culture" at times, which is a valid excuse, which is why some americans emigrate.
>>52041615
>>52041574
kek how can you guys be so sure of it?
>>52041615
>safety
>america is #1
Some things we do better, some Europe does better. It's not either or.
>>52041713
other countries are only "more safe" because they limit freedoms.
Young people people tend not to believe those things, infact young people tend to think exactly the opposite. The only people in America who believe that are inbred hicks and baby boomers.
>>52041615
>as far as freedom, quality of living, safety, america is #1
>safety
living here is so much better than the rest of the world makes it out to be, and yes i'm well traveled and have lived in another country for comparison.
about your stupid questions, no

>Do americans truly believe they live in the greatest country of the world?
Yes
>Dont they think there are things that other countries do better?
It's possible.
>Do you guys really think you guys are #1 in everything?
The things that count.
USA! USA! USA!
It's a great place to live because it's so easy to make a comfy living here. I don't think I could live as well as I do here, anywhere else for the same amount of effort and money.
>>52041241
Thinking that you live in the greatest country in the world doesn't imply that you think your country does everything the best.
In fact, I think that's one of the reasons people think America is so great; it allows other cultures to bring their contributions into it.

No we lack culture, and I hate the winters in most parts of the country. The landscape is beautiful in many parts though such as North Carolina, Colorado, Cali, etc.
I think Switzerland's system of governance is superior. The sad thing is as flawed as it is here, most other countries are far more flawed - higher taxes, more corruption, less stable economies, court systems, etc. There are few places I would move if given the choice (most in Europe), and Europe is being taken over by muzzies so fuck that. And work permits are a pain in the ass to get.
As much as it does suck here, I'm stuck here. I only hope based Trump will Make America G8 Again :^)

Stopped reading right there
Nice meme faggot
If you don't think your country is the best in the world, you shouldn't be in it.
Hilarisch, maar ook een beetje treurig.
>>52042533
You've never tried to get a work permit or obtain permanent residency status in another country, have you? There's not really a choice.

Gangsta rap and twerking is considered culture now? Like 50cent is equivalent to Mozart?
>>52042358
>No we lack culture
What are we missing out on, wearing Ledehosen, drinking tea, walking around with a big loaf of French bread?
>>52042737
It's a part of it.
50 Cent isn't the equivalent of Mozart though, just like Moazrt isn't the equivalent of 50.
>>52042737
There are plenty of American classical composers, stop being a faggot.
>>52042808
Well that's a shitty culture then

Being the greatest country in the world is not about occupying the number one spot at the top of all positive or desirable metrics.
The definition of "great" varies, but when people refer to the US as the greatest country in the world, they are speaking in a world-historical sense.
The United States is the world's first truly global hegemon. Our culture is so widespread and so invasive that most people fail to recognize it even where it exists, because they have become so accustomed to it. Our political power and influence are unparalleled. Our economic might is unmatched. And on top of that, our entire history springs out of the Enlightenment as one of the most successful and enduring political experiments in human history.
Even if the United States were to cease to exist tomorrow, its impact on human history would endure for centuries. It has already secured its spot in the pantheon of nations, alongside Rome, Athens, and Sumeria.
That's what people mean when they say that the United States is the greatest country in the world. And even if you hate the United States or loathe Americans, you can't deny it.
>>52042639
Hilarious, but also a bit sad.
Or literally: Hilarious, but also an bit-ey dreary.

I mean if you don't know, I can't tell you.
>>52042937
uhm thanks m8!
These days most Americans tend not to think we're the best and recognize that a lot of other countries do better in different ways, though also understand that the US is still a pretty nice place and that we're better than others in a few ways.
>>52041241
Yes, and with good reason.
>>52043070
what reason?
>>52042933
But that's not what Americans mean when they say America is the greatest(and nowadays only really Americans say America is the greatest).
They actually mean that the USA is the greatest not because of muh relevance but that life there is better in all ways than anywhere else.

Don't project your flyover snickers-pie nonsense onto the rest of us, please

>I mean if you don't know, I can't tell you.
I lived in Europe for 5 years, and they live like we do, the only difference was the food.
What do you think they do on a day to day basis that is cultural?
>>52042737
>implying there isn't more to culture than just past relics
>implying you're probally not wearing American influenced clothing
>>52043113
Nah you're wrong, but I doubt I can convince you otherwise since you seem to believe that you have a telepathic connection with Americans
>tfw you'll never get to be a cowboy in the wild west, having adventures and shooting shit
why even live
America isn't that great. People only say that to piss you guys off.
>>52043113
It's both.
as someone in the upper middle class I sure as hell don't want to leave
if i was poor, I think I'd run away to canada

You could be a park ranger in Wyoming or Alaska and spend all of your time getting to know your particular patch of woods, walking around with a bear rifle on your back, and helping tenderfoots who aren't on your level yet.

Meh, probably jack shit. Though I wish I could travel there. Lots of history. But muzzies have ruined it.
What has fucked up this country is the boomers.
>>52043113
No not really. We don't believe we are the best at literally everything. But dammit we are best where it counts sometimes.
>>52043249
I'm gonna make it, lads.
Some day.

There is nothing wrong with Reddit.

It's an echo chamber for an obnoxious subset of already annoying middle class suburban college-aged kids who think they're special
>>52043442
theres nothing wrong with reddit itself, content wise reddit is great for news, learning knew things, etc.
but the userbase that infects reddit is possibly the worst on the internet, it's cancerous liberals who don't know anything and act like the world owes them everything.

you're forgetting cancerous conservatives and lolbertarians who don't know anything and act like the world owes them everything

America is not the number 1 at anything. It has a shitty healthcare system, a shitty education system, its populace is brainwashed into believing plenty of false things by its wicked shady government, and even the things it is good at - freedom, quality of living and safety, as listed a while ago on this thread - it is not the BEST at. Some Scandinavian countries hold the record for those things, and plenty of countries are better in several aspects when compared to the US.
t. someone who loves the fuck out of the US
I've traveled and lived in a fair bit of the world. There are aspects of other places that I do enjoy, but none of them come anywhere close to the US. I'll be a citizen within the next year.
>>52041241
I just like saying it cause it makes you guys get angry
>>52041241
It is the greatest country in the world. No one is unironically saying that it's perfect, you can always be better.
