A video response to OhCurt's video, "You Effing Americans" - ???

Didn't have as much time to address this as I wanted, as I must attend a wake, so I may do an companion video. We shall see. :)

  • well put

  • Thank you much :)

  • Very well put. You can't take over 300 million people and start making generalisations.

  • Thank you, and exactly!

  • Very intelligent response! When an American attacked me simply because I am British the other day, I could have responded with a comment based on stereotypes of Americans. But the truth is every country has assholes, and I know better than to generalise an entire nation! I love that youtube has made it possible for us to interact internationally + hopefully chipped away at some generalisations and assumptions.

    I've even fallen in love with an American, and I've learnt so much through him!

  • Why thank you! And you and I seem to be on the same page with international relations... lol. And congratulations (however late they may be) on finding love! That's what life is all about. (queue Beatles music)

  • i guess to continue my point, i was told by friend that i should go to more Pro -american books for reading on history.( which implyies that my books which are issued by the schools are anti) i can understand where he is coming from but i think if you want to really see america as great country( which it is) then you have to view everything it does in  non baised light. In my opinion neither Pro nor anti works, both are baised...

  • great video, very throughtful and well said. a simple and effective approach. in light of that, i hear the same sentiments and i see it as more of criticism ( whether justified or not) and less to do with actually anti-american sentiments...i think you can dislike something without being agianst it in the sense of the word anti. the same is true for criticism. to be anti implies a raw hatred which is i;m guess what anti americanism is based upon. therefore i dont think criticism isn't anti

  • your most welcome back.

  • Thanks! :D
