I don't know any american personally, but through their media I can see that every single one of them is prejudiced, selfish, and insensitive. Not one person in that country cares about anyone but themselves. They are all close-minded fools who can't think for themselves. Everybody should think exactly like me. People who can't think for themselves are close-minded, and there are no close-minded fools here. Every american should see the world just the way I see it. DOWN WITH AMERICA!!!

LennonLenin, if you say you DON'T know any American personally, but claim that they are ALL prejudiced, selfish, and insensitive with your judgement based solely on the MEDIA (of all things!), then you're one stupid human being. You say we should all think for ourselves then you say everyone should see the world as YOU see it. Forget about the Americans for a second and focus on your own prejudices. I'm anti-america also but I know better than to say on a general scale that all of them are insensitive, selfish, and prejudiced. I live in America, so of course I know many Americans, and I can say yes, some of them are like that, but not all. Even so, there are selfish, insensitive, and prejudiced people in every country.

...and you are a fucking idiot.

You can't generalise like you have, I know many Americans that are good people. Judging from your post you seem very close-minded.

I am American with extreme leftist views. I am not prejuduced against anyone. I support people of other countries with leftist views. Everyone in America is not a rich asshole. Sure, there are plenty of rich assholes here and I hate them too. However there are many unfortunate people an America who have just as much to benefit from a leftist revolution!

Hey LennonLenin not every American is prejudiced, selfish, and insensitive, You need to think and realize that there are few Americans that do have the same Ideas we do! I personally don't like Americans that treat Immigrants like shit! But not every American will do that!

I'm glad to see people respond in the way they have against LennonLenin. As far as I can tell he is doing exactly what he is saying he hates about Americans, being closed minded etc. We must remember when we say Americans also a lot of people from all over the world are included in that. Also since this is a Che site, remember what he said:
Although it may seem paradoxical, I would also like to greet today the delegation representing the purest of the North American people. [Ovation] I would like to salute them not only because the North American people are not to blame for the barbarity and injusitce of their rulers, but also because they are innocent victims of the rage of all the peoples of the world, who sometimes confuse a social system with a people.

excuse me but i live and was born here in america
and im telling you... you think that americans are stereotypical? YOU are being stereotypical by saying that all americans are inconsiderate and prejudiced.
thats totally not true
many americans who dont consider themselves communists or socialists really do wish for a governmental change
and all this propaganda you see is generated by who else than the government... so please dont bad mouth the people

JohnVladimir, this isn't an anti-American site. We oppose their foreign policy, media etc, but you can't simply condemn 250M people, you haven't even met one!

Be careful, there are a lot of Americans on this site who share leftist beliefs. Don't generalize.

as a matter of fact, i was driving to newport news w/ a friend today who is a republican and she said something that made my heart sing with joy.

"you know, when you speak up in IR (internat'l relations) class, you make excellent points and you really make me reconsider my political beliefs and think about everything going on in the world that's been changed my american military policies and others. and then i go home and i come to my senses and i'm like 'no, she's a stupid democrat'"

at which point i told her to fucking not call me a democrat.

then i successfully refuted her belief "that poor people are lazy and deserve to be poor."

goddamn republicans. at least i change someone's beliefs for 4 hours a day 5 days a week. there is hope yet!

No seriously.

"Every American is prejudiced."

If that was deliberate, it's a triumph of irony.

If not.. you're an utter moron.

Keep posting funny/stupid remarks, or go away. :cool:

GREAT QUOTE !!! It honestly makes me feel better to know thats how Che felt. I am an American and I LOVE my country, it's people and what it's founded on. What I hate is the people in charge and the shitty attitudes of alot of my countrymen.

As for this LeninLenon guy, I thought he was joking. I don't see how any one could be that stupid and contradict themselves like that. "All Americans are prejeduice, but I've never met one". What a moron, he might as well say, "I hate gooks, but I'm not racist".

I wish I had the power to ban people. Saying you hate someone because of their race (especially if you've never met one) is Naziism.

I hate generalizations as well...but I'm curious....just what are the foundations our great nation was built upon? I don't see it. Our foundations were set by the wealthy, landowning, slave owning elite. Our foundations are made of fucking sand.

There are good people here however. (look at the U$ members on this board) I have to believe that this thread was just started as a flame or provocation. No one could be that ignorant.

I'm talking about the principles our country was founded on, not the men that failed to practice them.

Our country was founded on the concept that every man was created equal, that everyone deserved freedom from tyranny and opression. Look at our Bill of Rights, it's a great document.

Like I said, I'm defending the priciples, not the slave owners or the men that nearly wiped out the Native Americans.

I've read speeches from Castro praising our country's revolution and the foundation on which it was built.

I beleive that many, maybe most amerikkkans are selfish, prejudiced, and so forth, but I am one and am one the least stereotypical people in the country. If I were to say that all british people were uptight, I'd get a similar response, I know several, and some are uptight, but not all.

You should really rethink what you said.

If you were being serious, then fuck you.

You can not judge the US proletariat by the US ruling-class propaganda media. Its the ruling-class' media, not ours.

Also, your "logic" reeks of ethnocentricism (all Americans are evil because of the actions of their ruling-class).

I'd like to see how you would combat the MOST POWERFUL ruling-class in the history of the world, because that is the challenge that the American Left faces!

"I don't know any american personally, but through their media I can see that every single one of them is prejudiced, selfish, and insensitive."

If I'm not mistaken, you're condemming Americans for being prejudice against others, but you're generalizing Americans at the same time. Wow.

"Not one person in that country cares about anyone but themselves. They are all close-minded fools who can't think for themselves. Everybody should think exactly like me. People who can't think for themselves are close-minded, and there are no close-minded fools here. Every american should see the world just the way I see it."

So let me get this straight. You are condemming Americans for not thinking for themselves, and then you tell everyone to think like YOU do?

I'm laughing pretty hard right now. You are a moron.

I would agree that the Bill of Rights looks like a great document, but I sincerely believe that document like all the others put together by the "founding fathers" is a toothless tiger.

The Bill of Rights has never kept the promises it made. Not from day one. It didn't because the authors, made sure it didn't.

Everything, including our beloved Revolution was about capitalism and the ruling class keeping money and power. We never had a shot. Every president has been a sell out.

From the First Amendment being watered down or eliminated (depending on how you look at it) by first the Sedition Act and then the Espionage Act to more recently protesters being denied a permit (of all goddamn things) to march in New York (freedom of assembly), it's all been one big "Matrix" dreamworld.

I'm sorry...did that all come off as cynical and bitter? I can't help it....I'm from New England. They put it in the water here. :biggrin:

The original poster isn't even responding, my guess is to just let it go. If he doesn't see fit to debate in a discussion which he started, then there's no reason to stick around this thread anymore.
