You should learn about the 'house of unamerican activities'. You know. The United States government department that runined thousands of lives.

[canikickit]

You never heard "unamerican" before! Quite shocking.
It is different to anti american. Anti -american is a word which actually has meaning, unamerican is bullshit.

According to Right wingers over here, half the friggin population of the U.S. is "un-american." But the term American in referring only to the U.S. is bullshit in itself. America, technically, includes Central, South, and North America, not just the U.S. I've said this before, but it still annoys me.

[canikickit]

Yeah but when it comes down to it "America" is another name for the United States of America.
