When someone bad mouths you--what do you think?
Why is it, people in England always try to compare/contrast themselves to the USA? Having lived in both countries, I know very well... they are two very different cultures and have many differing ideals.
One thing I always thought was funny, is how many English think they know anything about America. Fact is, they only know what their press tells them. It's interesting, the English know how inaccurate their press is when it comes to stories about their own people and have little trust for the press--except when it comes to information about the USA. Then of course, their press is perfect. Ludicrous, right?
Take Trump stories. English press only present to the people bad things without saying one of the many good things he's done. Does it occur to you why Trumps favorability numbers are increasing in the USA?
Most American's get why the English keep odd scores on things, like it's some sort of competition--but the fact is, most American's don't really care what people in England think, but American's do take note of the constant bad mouthing from England.
For those who think America believes it pushes their will upon other nations and has double standards:
American's are more than happy to keep their money at home and let another country take over the leadership of the world--but nobody else steps up. Not even the UK. Seems the UK would rather be a critic than a leader. Any moron can take this position on things, right? France's President Macron proves this point well.
Step up or shut up. Otherwise, all you appear to be is an under achieving loud mouth with an inferiority complex.
