[RoKeT]

i must agree but on the other subjects wat are your views (while we wait for others i'm sure they will come)

all humans are ignorant, it just has varying degrees, and I'm not saying every single american is a moron, but typically we tend to be self centric thinking we are the only ones that matter

We're not the only ones, it's just another human trait. *points at Semper* A perfect example of what the world loves to paint as an American, except he's British.


I am currently cleaning out the crapware from a fresh desktop install, so I'll have to post more later.

1, ignorance by choice makes idiots of everyone, regardless of nationality....IMHO of course

2. the swastika?! hmmm...that's a tough one! personally, the swastika has been usurped by the FAAAAAR right and any meaning it had from before the Bush's i mean, Nazi's got there hands on it is lost to western eyes.

3, the world is more full of hatred now than at any time in history. hatred is directed in every direction where as before, an individual might have hatred for say, an occupying army or corrupt kings/queens/officials. now hatred is simply everywhere and without any direction or course...we just love to hate!

1. i wouldn't say americans are idiots but they do seem more prone to making stupid and rediculous decisions, and actions than other people. as for why i don't think anyone can really say, perhaps it is culture, or their sometimes ott religious beliefs, or strong political views.... i don't know.

2. the swastica is not the same as the original symbol and was NOT used for the same purpose, therefore it cannot be compared to the original. that said the swastica itself is not evil it just represents evil.

3. there is a LOT more homophobic hatred in america than in most other countries, and hatred towards blacks is worse than in a lot of places. on the whole it is probably getting worse, especially now that america become even more god concious since 9/11 and the nation as a whole barely trust other religions now.

i am british and so my view could be clouded but i think it is reasonably clear, more so on some matters than others though i expect

[RoKeT]

age doesn't matter lol america was founded for freedom and it's probably one of the least towards freedom... i agree with wat was said about the ignornace and the swasitka i posted this debate becasue of the sig thread and there was alot of debates in there i wish it could be debated here more but most the of the comments on here i agree with so there goes my debating ha ha ha

age doesn't matter lol america was founded for freedom and it's probably one of the least towards freedom...

To the contraire, we have more freedoms, liberties and rights than any other country.

I disagree, Americans are no more stupid or ignorant than anyone else, including the Brits. People just like to talk about our stupidity more.

2. the swastica is not the same as the original symbol and was NOT used for the same purpose, therefore it cannot be compared to the original. that said the swastica itself is not evil it just represents evil.

Which seems to be suggesting that PoD was correct in his usage of the Swastika.

3. there is a LOT more homophobic hatred in america than in most other countries, and hatred towards blacks is worse than in a lot of places. on the whole it is probably getting worse, especially now that america become even more god concious since 9/11 and the nation as a whole barely trust other religions now.

Homophobia? Maybe, but this "more hatred towards blacks" idea makes me laugh. If anyone is racist in America, it's the blacks. I mean, I bet you can't guess the color of the last lynch mob in Texas. Xenophobia and racism is definitely a much larger issue in the UK than in America, what with large lynch mobs chasing entire communities from their homes. That doesn't happen here, our racists have a loud bark and no bite. But that's not really something the media likes to talk about, it's easier to hate on America. Just like the media would have you to believe the south is the most racist part of America. It's all bullcrap. With blacks, they have such a sense of entitlement, that in their mind if it does not favor them then it must be racist. The real issue now is groups like the NAACP creating divides in the community and things like "affirmative action" causing crap like this.

i did say i could be wrong lol.
there is truth in what i say but also truth in what you say, maybe more in what you say but like i said i'm not american so i could be wrong

1. People in general are idiots, this isnt limited to Americans only.

2. The Swastika, in essence, is a positive symbol. It just was the defamation that we are indoctrinated to that makes it bad. It was also how it was used.

3. Hatred is not limited to America, the question is there more hatred now than ever before cannot be answered .

1 americans are i would say arrogant ignorant and most of all very forgetfull look at ww1 we gave them all the money we were the richest empire in the world britain and we saved the americans on more than one occasion and the best of it is they think they saved us lol

and how do they repay us now they shoot our soldiers in afgan and iraq with so called friendly fire

2 the swastika is potraid these days with all the remonisions of what hittler done in all the camps and with the ss so it is no look as a thing of evil which i dont agree on after all it was a flag that they adopted

3 hate is every where in the world its somthing you cant get away from and with all the alcohol and drugs just fuels that problem
