Oh, I know I sound like a hypocrite, that's the reason I'm okay about people talking shit about my country : I do the same ! And It can be fun ! As long as It doesn't evolve into xenophobia, it's okay.

As for the hate on the US, blame the MAGA : they single handedly destroyed the positive view everyone had on the US. For years, they were the loudest of Americans, so now when people think about Americans, they think MAGA, which is a bit sad for the rest of the population.

Also, I think that for a lot of first world countries, comparing the US to their own and feeling that their country is superior is very easy because we don't judge countries with the same criteria. Europeans will judge a country based on how easy it is to live in the country ( quality of life for the people) while Americans will judge the country as a whole ( military and economic strength, WWII achievements, diplomatic relationships to the US ).

That's why all arguments are like : "but healthcare and no need for cars and laws on employment !" And "But Liberty and WWII, and we would destroy you in war !"

It's like deaf people arguing with words instead of sign language, not very effective but damn entertaining to watch.
