aTomsLife Posted February 6, 2015 Share Posted February 6, 2015 Nobody likes America but we sure get a lot of people from Europe, Asia Africa and Latin America as well as the Mid east that want to move to America and have their children become Americans. Why? Who says nobody likes 'murika? I think lots of folk somehow envisage a better life than in the shiteholes they live in.. Whether it works out for them or not is a different thing. I've been there many times.. I personally wouldn't want to stay there, and that's not to say I don't like 'murcians .. I just feel there's better ways of living else where in the world. Tell me why do you guys always feel, and react so sensitively, about what people think of you? You just people like the other 7,293,108,475 folk that are alive on this here people farm- You ain't no better or worse. "Tell me why do you guys always feel, and react so sensitively, about what people think of you?" I don't speak for all 300 million of us obviously, but what irks me most and gets me riled up some days is that we're damned if we do, damned if we don't. One group's yelling for 'assistance,' the other is rolling its collective eyes at yet more intervention by the U.S. in things that are none of our business. The world and its people love to criticize and voice hatred, but never any gratitude. Example: Was participating in a Facebook thread that was overrun with Middle Easterners screaming death to America, yet there they were utilizing American technology that had given them a voice in the world. More so than their own governments. I suppose that's all the more reason not to be so sensitive--knowing that we'll always be angering some, while never pleasing just about anyone. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

neverdie Posted February 6, 2015 Share Posted February 6, 2015 Haven't noticed anything different in my interactions with Thais. Yet I do feel an increase in hostility, mostly from those Brits and Aussies who disliked us in the first place. There is another thread where a non-American mentioned how many expats were losers in their own countries. The UK and Aus. are tiny with combined populations about 1/4 of the US. Yet they are vastly overrepresented as expats in Thailand. That's because they hate themselves and their countries. As bitter old men they are jealous and have to be bitter toward others. In 30 years their countries will be muslim due to immigration and breeding rates. They know it. They are powerless to do anything about it because their governments disarmed them. They actually hate their countries and it shows in a multitude of posts. They have nowhere to go home to. They don't recognize their countries due to immigration and PC governments. They've given up their sovereign borders to an international group and they no longer can claim patriotic pride. All they can do is criticise those who have an independent country with patriotism and who do have the power to change things. They criticize America AND their own countries. They are lost and broken. They no longer understand being patriotic and think that those who are have lost the plot when in truth they have lost the plot and have lost their way. They are people without a country. They drink their days away in Thailand realizing that the old saying is true: "Wherever you go, there you are." Deluded or Captain rats. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My father was an immigrant in London in the 50's and there was more than a bit of racism towards folk from a certain island right next door.. I learned soon enough it doesn't matter what a fool believes. All that matters is me. what I think of me, what I think of all the things I do. That is what defines me! If folk really have a problem with you, above and beyond banter, then the problem is almost certainly with them. Learn.. Its easy enough to recognise once you realise its there. once you know that, then you know their issues are their issues and you know they don't belong to you..

Popular Post neverdie Posted February 6, 2015 Popular Post Share Posted February 6, 2015 Hello..this is the OP. I should have know better on TV. If you can read my post or even the short title, it is obvious that I am addressing Americans and asking Americans how they fell about an issue. Yet. probably over 80% of the replies are from non Americans bashing America or Americans! What part of " this thread is for Americans" do you not understand? Those of you claiming that Americans are rude, loud and overreacting need to step away from the computer and think about what you have posted here and how rude you are being! You are over reacting to something that does not involve you at all.. You participation in this thread is unsolicited and unwanted. You have every right to bash America. Many Americans, myself included bash our country..it is healthy. Just stop being rude, uninvited participants in this thread. It is not about bashing anyone. Open your own d*mn thread and bash away on that thread. This thread is asking for the opinions of Americans about soething that involves Americans and no one else. Not you! Understand? Again, I would like the opinions of my fellow Americans on the current and possible future situation for Americans in Thailand. Thanks to those Americans who have replied. There has been some good input from you. There should be an American section where you can talk about guns and blowing stuff up. It would be a good place for y'all to gather and look down on the rest of the world, with all ur self importance and all that. Of course there's some really nice American folk on this forum who are probably wondering about what ur smokin.....you and ya mate that keeps sayin 'duh'. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
2fishin2 Posted February 6, 2015 Share Posted February 6, 2015 There in lies the problem, the op thinks because he is American that this non physical characteristic makes life more uncomfortable, less safe..Americans always overstate there own importance which is probably the characteristic of any super power..although on the wane..generous people..regardless of nationality any individual who derides their home country is to be avoided..

Dumbastheycome Posted February 6, 2015 Share Posted February 6, 2015 I have two nationalities, American and British, a right Yanker some may call me, but if anyone asks; I am firmly making my British side the priority and leaving my American passport at home. Even at Immigration I always go as British rather than American. My guess is that the most despised nationalities worldwide are Americans and Israelis, any countries that bear a grudge it`s usually aimed at them first hand. I think the OP is quite right to have concerns and the way tensions are building in the world, especially in the middle east, I can see the situation becoming much worse before it gets better. You what??? I always have been led to believe the US would only allow you to have a US passport if you gave up the other? Or is it the "green Card" ? Anyway why not just do what many yanks do and introduce themselves as Canadian ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Is this another Britt claiming they own the English language and only Britts can speak it? Did you know that the Britts are such a small percentage of the people in the world who speak that language that there has been talk about changing the name of the language? Most of the people in the world who speak English have great difficulty understanding the strange version of the language that Britts speak! The version of the English best understood around the world is American English..due mostly to American cinema or "Hollywood" I think. Britts need to get over themselves. The sun has been setting on your empire for a long time now........probably longer than you have been alive. "make my day" That is an American English quote from Clint Eastwood in an American movie...or cinema as you would call it. is that another movie were america won the war for us,? its all make believe mate,,, we as brits understand this, you my freind must believe every movie you see,, please believe me harry potter isnt real there never was a goose that laid a golden egg No. It was a movie about a San Francisco cop named Dirty Harry who loved to use his 357 magnum. I know a lot about movies Jake. I worked for George Lucas at Lucasfilm. I don't want to burst too many bubbles, But I know Star Wars and Indiana Jones are not real either or even the Ewoks! I watched them being filmed. Harry Potter? Wasn't that one about some British sissy? Never bothered to watch or read it. Sorry! thats better get with it,,,lol i still think hollywood got most of there stories wrong in the war films,, england was in the ww2 too Yes they were....getting their assess handed to them until, the yanks arrived and bailed them out Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GinBoy2 Posted February 6, 2015 Share Posted February 6, 2015 There are times and threads which outlive themselves after they deviate and degenerate so far from the topic and just become a shouting match. Gentlemen, this is one, maybe it's time to let it peacefully die Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

aTomsLife Posted February 6, 2015 Share Posted February 6, 2015 "Tell me why do you guys always feel, and react so sensitively, about what people think of you?" I don't speak for all 300 million of us obviously, but what irks me most and gets me riled up some days is that we're damned if we do, damned if we don't. One group's yelling for 'assistance,' the other is rolling its collective eyes at yet more intervention by the U.S. in things that are none of our business. The world and its people love to criticize and voice hatred, but never any gratitude. Example: Was participating in a Facebook thread that was overrun with Middle Easterners screaming death to America, yet there they were utilizing American technology that had given them a voice in the world. More so than their own governments. I suppose that's all the more reason not to be so sensitive--knowing that we'll always be angering some, while never pleasing just about anyone. Never heard the saying about how you can't please all of the people all of the time? Welcome to the real world. The one where you're not God's favourite special country. See that little emoticon thingy? In the context of my post, it pretty much means exactly what you wrote. Thanks for the welcome though. Good to be here. Finally.
