I think it's time we stop saving the world. Let the world blow itself up. Most countries don't have the balls to go up and do something so why sit back and complain? IMO, Europe is no different than it was an imperial power 300 years ago. They found a new scapegoat to abuse. The American soldiers who died for Europe in both WW1 and WW2 would be ashamed to see what today's Europeans are. Modern Europe is bunch of whiners and unpatriotic. I feel like i'm in favor of Islamization of Europe.
What I'm saying is from my experience in France, I haven't really heard much America-hatred. People criticize US foreign policies, a lot, but other than that it's more about laughing around poking fun at American things, but it's rarely anything genuinely mean at all. France receives more hate from the US and UK than it directs hate towards them, which is ironic because most of US hatred towards France stems from Americans falsely believing the French despise them.
@mtb416 BH Levy may be a successful author, many more French hate his guts. I'd wager he's one of the most hated media personalities here, by the right and left.
The "anti-Americanism" is mostly just an opposition to foreign policy and cultural influence, like the long French opposition to NATO and the Iraq war lately. Americans seem to confuse political opposition with genuine hatred against them. It seems kind of insecure. And YT is full of kids and vocal morons, not representative.
I would never claim that all Europeans carry animosity toward America, but there is a significant portion that does. Just as many Americans belittle and look down upon Europe, so do many Europeans look down upon America.
I suppose the question is which came first. Strong anti-American propaganda from the French can be traced specifically to the 1920s in France. Considering America's involvement in Europe's wars....
@mtb416 Considering America's involvement in WW1? Why would the French be mad about that? American soldiers were well received. I'm not aware of this 1920s thing. To me, modern "anti-americanism" can be traced back to Charles De Gaule who was very chauvinistic and didn't want Anglo American interference in French affairs, and that attitude stayed prevalent, as a sort of normal thing to do, throughout all presidents until the current one, Sarkozy.
@Wotanraven I guess it is Europeans who confuse "America" with "Americans." I see hatred directed from Europeans toward both.
I'm not in some fantasy land, and it isn't some secret. Anti-Americanism was created in Europe and is alive and well there.
You speak as though I have no experience in Europe or with Europeans. That is not the case. It isn't insecure to properly point out that Europeans get off putting down the United States. That is the real insecurity.
@Hperman09 Yeah, you're right, France never was a leading military power, not under Charles Martel, not under Charlemagne, not during the Crusades, not under Francis I, not under Louis XIV, not under Napoleon, not during WW1... France certainly never faced off against the entire continent nor stand strong in conflict, ever. It was always a ridiculous country that it's enemies laughed at and never considered a serious opponent. Thank you for your insight and great knowledge.
I agree with the passage you read, but much of Europe also resents "Americanization" of their societies so in a sense there also is somewhat of a healthy patriotic basis, in the context of ever-growing globalization.
I have dual French and American citizenship, I've always lived in France, and I've never received heat for being American, except perhaps from Arabs. My American citizenship is either greeted with indifference, but mostly with interest or a "cool you have more opportunities!"
@mala265 Exactly. I spend a great deal of my life travelling to America to visit family and just for a vacation. Never had a bad experience. Except Utah. People there seem to be lliving in the 1950s lol. It was llike a trip back through time I tell ya!
@mala265 i just hope you don't finally meet me one day hanging out in Auckland begging for pennies...we got to take the old USA back and return it to a society that rewards success and not failure
I love America too.... I wouldn't want to live in any other country, but I hate the direction we're headed. Marxists and Neo-Cons have hijacked this ship and it's nobody's fault but OURS for allowing it.
Is irrelevant whose fault it is. What is relevant is how to fix it and how to avoid the mess again.
Good thing is that more people are seeing how far the rabbit hole goes. Bad thing is that this is going to change as the elites want to censor the internet. Heck, Google is already censoring.
There was a viral video in the Russian section of this website recently showing opposition figures visiting the American embassy, it was later shown on Russian TV. Imagine if US opposition figures were coming in droves to the Russian embassy? I know what the reaction is when some subversive elements appear on RT.
I wont lie, I have little love for the United States, though I also dislike the vague, motiveless hatred that many Europeans have for America and Americans. To be honest though I think a lot of it just has to do with the 'special relationship' (especially bad relationship) that it has with my own country Great Britain. If someone other than us has to be top dog the United States is definately one of the better options in my opinion.
Jews are probably busy infiltrating Chinese politics as we speak, like rats abandoning a sinking ship,they have no loyalty or patriotic feeling toward uncle Sam. They are the main reason the USA are hated across the globe
The US and Europe are virtually the same. There is little difference between them in my experience. That's why I cannot understand anti Americanism in Europe and hatred of Europe in America. Sometimes I think it's not really hatred but just a rivalry between two Western powers as to who can and has done the best job. I have family on both sides of the Atlantic so I know the similarities and the differences well
For example, in this small country up in the frozen north, we got presidential elections. The two top candidates will be running one on one, and look here what the candidate from the Green party has as his key issues:
"Conflict resolution, tolerance, the environment, gender-neutral marriage. Favours a strong EU, firmly opposes Finnish NATO membership. "...
reading the comments i norticed a lot of differing opinions on anti-Americanism. i believe that you could explore what is the average joe's view on american concept of freedom and democracy. In my view Anti Americanism stems from US goverment policies from the post WW2 era to the present, and the attitudes of Americans which borders to arrogance, forcing other countries to accept policies against their own better interests. I believe pre war Americans has a better grasp of American freedom .
i see so much anti americanism in my mostly hispanic neighborhoods when they wave their flags of their parents countries without realizing that there was a reason their parents left those countries in the first place. the horror tales of my dad's life in Cuba was enough for me to love the Red White and Blue
One should also take into account the leftist psychology and worldview. To them anyone who is poor or in any way worse off than others is: a) being exploited b) not to blame for his predicament. Just as they want to strip the rich of their wealth within the state, they seek to strip the rich countries of theirs. Therefore they take the side of Hamas vs. Israel. And therefore they take the side of anyone the USA has ever been in conflict with. Being rich and powerful is always a sin.
Australians resent the fact that they owe their freedom to the USA! They would be speaking Japanese if not for the US Military!
Ditto for the UK and Europe!
As a dual (US/ Australian) national I hear all the anti America crap CONSTANTLY from the Aussies; mostly young punks that have no idea about history! Makes me sick as an American and. as an Australian too!
@pinegrove33 I think its a "damned if you do, damned if you don't". If something bad happens in the world and the US does nothing then people will scream". Why didn't the US they do anything?" but then if the US does something, the same people will scream "Why is the US is the world police?"
It's pathetic Europeans have the guts to accuse of US of policing the world yet they can't solve internal affairs let alone their own backyard. It's like they rather used us as tools than actual allies.
@FatTurTleMusic Whether it's true or not, the kind of arrogance typified by your remark is one thing most other nationalities dislike about Americans. Thankfully over the past 10 years or so, the USA has overall become more humble as it has come to realise that many other countries are doing far better than it is.
@davegate2000 Seriously -- America is TOO HUMBLE, the most arogant are probably the French.. The French battle flag = white sheet on a stick! No wonder they are so rude to Americans in Paris -- they know that they owe EVERYTHING to America and, by extension, Americans.
It's so typical too; those that contribute the least COMPLAIN THE MOST!! Umungst other things America has given the western world its very freedom; it's repaid with scorne!?? ..and *MY* remarks are 'arogant'!! WTF?
@FatTurTleMusic Scroll down and read my last 4 comments. Also, if one country owes everything to the other, I wouldn't say it's France to America, it's more the other way around, but all in all I don't think any country should have these eternal debts to eachother.
Obviously, you're more hateful to the French than they are to you, because you feel insecure. That's typical and I just mentioned exactly that in one of my previous comments here.
@mtb416 All I'm saying is that when some Americans insult France and spew unbelievable amounts of hatred towards it, it is often because they think the French hate them, so they're just sending the hatred back ten times stronger. That youtuber I was answering, FatTurTleMusic, is the perfect example, because he says it clearly/. That to me is insecurity. Hating because belief of being hated.
@mtb416 Americans don't call me insecure because I don't hate Americans out of fear that Americans hate me. I don't hate Americans at all, I'm just exasperated by pricks, whatever nationality they may have.
And I personally don't see why France should respect America more than the opposite. Of all things, there should be mutual friendship from close nations, American respect over France's long and rich history, French respect over American accomplishments in the last centuries.

@Wotanraven I'm a dual national -- Australian / USA! So I see my Aussie (mostly young + ignorant) brothers bagging on everything American -- constantly! It saddens me as an Australian and as an American! They have NO IDEA! Funny the old Diggers (that fought the Japs) will generally NEVER say a bad word about America! Then again, the Diggers FOUGHT shoulder to shoulder with America!
There is nothing coming from me but the truth! ..simple as that! Insecurity? Nope!
@Wotanraven; I'm not hateful at all! I find it ironic the way many cultures mock the USA! I just laugh at them! They sit there on a PC (US invention), using the internet (US invention) on YouTube (US invention) and whine anti-American gibberish!
It would take weeks to list all of the truly profond contributions made to humanity by America!
But it's 'arrogant' to mention the disproportionate contribution America has made to world at large!? Seriously? Arrogant? I don’t think so!
@FatTurTleMusic When did I say it was arrogant to admire American contributions? I even said the opposite in a previous comment : "respect over American accomplishments in the last centuries". But why insult France like that? That was arrogant (since you mention the word). My belief is that there is more America-hatred in english-speaking countries than in France, since the relationship is much closer, whereas the French perhaps feel less overshadowed? I'm just guessing
...like calling them a bunch of cheese eating surrender monkeys? lol
I've spent time all over the world; most European countries (typified by France) have a PERVASIVE, emblematic, anti-American culture! It's in the water; really, it's that bad!
When Aussie & Euro-trash nationals think I'm just an Australian, I get to hear what they *really* think about American / Americans! It's truly disgusting! When they discover that I'm American they wisely STFU!
@FatTurTleMusic You see? I was being polite with you and your only answer was insulting my country, by using the over-used stereotype that only ignorant stereotypical dumbasses like you use. That's why some people hate Americans, because of dipshits like you who know fuck all. Don't even try debating with me about that "surrender monkeys" bullshit, I will win. I always win because I know obviously know more about history that anyone ignorant enough to say that.
In Japan, ROK and the Philippines, the US is actually viewed quite positively. So is in most Europe. It is actually a fashion only among the "unintellectuals," lamestream media and general leftists to hate the US. Eastern part of Europe can't have enough of the US.
@topperheartramada yeah, that's what we read a lot here, but in the US they seem to think the Swedes are the great heroes of civilization. Quite a dichotomy
@pinegrove33 European leftist elites are hoping to 'civilize' the USA by making it look more like Europe. I don't think it was a coincidence that they were so in love with Obama and that they gave him a peace prize for nothing. Just as Michael Moore dreams of making the USA a paradise like Canada in his Fahrenheit 911 film. The leftists are competing in finding ways to civilize vile America.
@bgrim2008 yeah, i'm not a cracker i'm probably a 100 times better educated than you are, and this is your second racist comment in two days so you have to go. It sounds like you really hate white people and you're trying to project your illness on us. We don't think like that. I just want to be nice and get along. Try it some time. Respect other people. Farewell.
@spigknot i also wanted a perfect excuse to use the word "malcontent" in a sentence correctly. its such a cool word and its the perfect word to describe a liberal leftist. lol malcontent.
I've travelled all over the world, and my experience has been that the American people are highly regarded, the US government, not so much. You have to ask yourself if you accept what your government is doing in terms of military intrusions and kowtowing to NATO. It's not "hating", that's a static analysis, to me it's more important to imagine what good could come from minding our own business and freeing people from crippling regulations and taxation.
@xzuvqz Ah yes, 'plenty of good reasons to hate the US and not-so-Great Britain' - like: discovery of DNA, unlocking the genome, harnessing electricity, nuclear energy, wireless technology, central heating, air conditioning, water purification, refrigerators, recorded music, the piano, the electric guitar, amplifiers, motion pictures, TV, radio, telephones, mobiles , touch screens, colour printing, light bulb, modern agricultural techniques and farming methods
@xzuvqz LOL. You really shouldn't swallow toxic garbage because you end up projectile vomiting. It is unpleasant and unhealthy. See a doctor if it persists.
@xzuvqz More 'good reasons for your hate of the US and GB: Computers, the software to run them, the internet, global communications, aircraft, cars, trains, rockets, satellites, spacecraft, skyscrapers, telescope, microscope, eyeglasses, contact lenses, microwave ovens, washing machines, metallurgy, synthetics, most pharmaceuticals, most scientific, mathematics & physics breakthroughs, periodic table, chemistry and biology breakthroughs, genetics, modern surgery, modern astronomy. U nincompoop.
@KingDingaLing090 And the US government has been in a race ever since to get things back to the good old days, namely, collectivism and a nanny state.
@pretorious700 "And the US government has been in a race ever since to get things back to the good old days, namely, collectivism and a nanny state" <--- WHat?
@KingDingaLing090 Ahem. Just a mild response to your "Europe gave the world Fascism, Nazism and Communism. America destroyed them and gave the world inalienable constitutional individual rights" - is Britain to be erased completely from history? A little nod at least, though it may catch in the throat :)
The fact is that the US is a star and a beacon, it's just not perfect. Is not the stain on a new cloth not far more noticeable than a hole in an old jumper?
@ritchloui the Idea of Liberty, Codified in America as the Inheritor of the Western Tradition, the Moon-Shot of the Renaissance embodied in the early Republic... having escaped the internecine conflicts of Europe...
You beat me to it! Although you sound far more well-read and intellectual than I am going to when I cover the subject. I'm tired of hearing what a bad-guy we are, as a country. Especially from other Americans. The French too, for that matter. People always want to see a force as "all good" and the enemy as "all bad". We do some questionable things, but I know for a fact you cant beat the bad guys without employing some badguy tactics yourself. We enjoy freedoms here because of some of these....
Has it ever occurred to anyone that the main driving reason for liberalism is people who have never matured past adolescence sticking it to the people they view as their superiors while they were a teen?
My brother is a liberal and still holds a grudge against my asshole step-dad. I've long since dropped the hatred for the man and also the fact that he called himself "conservative".
He was more asshole than conservative. I've matured to tell the difference.
Seems like a religion to me, programming you from birth to be a certain way.

And I personally don't see why France should respect America more than the opposite. Of all things, there should be mutual friendship from close nations, American respect over France's long and rich history, French respect over American accomplishments in the last centuries.

@Wotanraven I'm a dual national -- Australian / USA! So I see my Aussie (mostly young + ignorant) brothers bagging on everything American -- constantly! It saddens me as an Australian and as an American! They have NO IDEA! Funny the old Diggers (that fought the Japs) will generally NEVER say a bad word about America! Then again, the Diggers FOUGHT shoulder to shoulder with America!
There is nothing coming from me but the truth! ..simple as that! Insecurity? Nope!

@Wotanraven; I'm not hateful at all! I find it ironic the way many cultures mock the USA! I just laugh at them! They sit there on a PC (US invention), using the internet (US invention) on YouTube (US invention) and whine anti-American gibberish!
It would take weeks to list all of the truly profond contributions made to humanity by America!
But it's 'arrogant' to mention the disproportionate contribution America has made to world at large!? Seriously? Arrogant? I don’t think so!

@FatTurTleMusic When did I say it was arrogant to admire American contributions? I even said the opposite in a previous comment : "respect over American accomplishments in the last centuries". But why insult France like that? That was arrogant (since you mention the word). My belief is that there is more America-hatred in english-speaking countries than in France, since the relationship is much closer, whereas the French perhaps feel less overshadowed? I'm just guessing

Insult France?
...like calling them a bunch of cheese eating surrender monkeys? lol
I've spent time all over the world; most European countries (typified by France) have a PERVASIVE, emblematic, anti-American culture! It's in the water; really, it's that bad!
When Aussie & Euro-trash nationals think I'm just an Australian, I get to hear what they *really* think about American / Americans! It's truly disgusting! When they discover that I'm American they wisely STFU!

@FatTurTleMusic You see? I was being polite with you and your only answer was insulting my country, by using the over-used stereotype that only ignorant stereotypical dumbasses like you use. That's why some people hate Americans, because of dipshits like you who know fuck all. Don't even try debating with me about that "surrender monkeys" bullshit, I will win. I always win because I know obviously know more about history that anyone ignorant enough to say that.

In Japan, ROK and the Philippines, the US is actually viewed quite positively. So is in most Europe. It is actually a fashion only among the "unintellectuals," lamestream media and general leftists to hate the US. Eastern part of Europe can't have enough of the US.

@pinegrove33 European leftist elites are hoping to 'civilize' the USA by making it look more like Europe. I don't think it was a coincidence that they were so in love with Obama and that they gave him a peace prize for nothing. Just as Michael Moore dreams of making the USA a paradise like Canada in his Fahrenheit 911 film. The leftists are competing in finding ways to civilize vile America.

I've travelled all over the world, and my experience has been that the American people are highly regarded, the US government, not so much. You have to ask yourself if you accept what your government is doing in terms of military intrusions and kowtowing to NATO. It's not "hating", that's a static analysis, to me it's more important to imagine what good could come from minding our own business and freeing people from crippling regulations and taxation.

You beat me to it! Although you sound far more well-read and intellectual than I am going to when I cover the subject. I'm tired of hearing what a bad-guy we are, as a country. Especially from other Americans. The French too, for that matter. People always want to see a force as "all good" and the enemy as "all bad". We do some questionable things, but I know for a fact you cant beat the bad guys without employing some badguy tactics yourself. We enjoy freedoms here because of some of these....

Has it ever occurred to anyone that the main driving reason for liberalism is people who have never matured past adolescence sticking it to the people they view as their superiors while they were a teen?
My brother is a liberal and still holds a grudge against my asshole step-dad. I've long since dropped the hatred for the man and also the fact that he called himself "conservative".
He was more asshole than conservative. I've matured to tell the difference.
