      Being critical of your countries past and/or present actions doesn’t mean you hate it. America is far from perfect but I still love it.

        I 100% agree

        But captioning your post with “If Americans Could Read” says otherwise. And the general opinions on Lemmy say otherwise. People here hate America, hate the west, and are against everything the west values.

        And to these people my comment is relevant.

        Great for people born in these countries. Now what about the rest of the world?

        Winning the birth lottery isn’t an achievement. Trying to make the world better - is.

        And that’s not to shame nordic countries for their achievement - they’re doing most things right - but their challenge is so much easier compared to the U.S that it’s ridiculous to compare them. Sweden doesn’t need to face ISIS or Bin Laden committing terror on their territory or threatening their countries existence (although sweden’s r@pe statistics say they do have a problem…)
