The United States of America

[El Kabong]

You see the thing Lyle is when I talk about Civility and Hospitality I'm not confining it to the left or to the right I'm not talking about political stuff I'm just talking about in general and then again it's based only on my experiences. Now I have lived 11 years out of the United States was quite a long time I am willing to bet that is longer than any other American on the form or at least close to it. I can seriously tell you that I found it far more hospitable and all the countries I lived in outside of the US. That doesn't mean that you Lyle would be inhospitable I was just talking about in general

OK brock


"until I went abroad until I saw normal, civil, caring, presentable people and saw what normal natural and healthy food is."

Because that's not available in the United States......where YOU were, of course

"do you get the impression that there's something really really wrong with America and American society given all of the mass shootings and Incredibly High astronomically High rate of divorce and childhood obesity and childhood diabetes and school shootings and astronomically High rate of mental illnesses?"

Yup none of that stuff happens OUTSIDE the United States.....where YOU were, of course

"I don't know why they're dying to try to come here."

....where YOU are, of course




"I know the Americans are going to chant red white and blue until we want to stick a sock in their mouth."

We who? brock? You going to attempt to stick a sock in my mouth? Or is that just you know a general expression and not meant for anyone specifically?

damn Lyle your first two points were weak bit that last one was the worst. When did I say anything about you personally? I think you're reading too much into it.

Also taking literally the expression to put a sock in it that's also a bit disingenuous isn't it. Do you really think it means to take a literal sock and actually put it in someone's mouth? Sheesh

also now to your unsound syllogism on the first two points now let's get to that. Just because there are obese and diabetic children in other countries doesn't in any way nullify or even detract in the slightest from my point that the United States is the king of childhood diabetes and autism and childhood obesity and that was really the main point Lyle but rather than get the main point you want to try to say that I said it did not exist at all outside of the US

I’ve probably read this much bullshit crammed into a small place before I just can’t remember when

[brocktonblockbust]

Welp there went the truce.....😕😕😕

Nah that was just humor

Oh I'm supposed to impress you?

So you've NEVER met anyone kind, civil, caring until you went elsewhere? Ok then

You NEVER lived in a place with ANY problems? Ok then

You don't know why people risk life and limb to get here? Ok then

WE who??

It got personal because I'd chant USA until you want to "jam a sock" in someone's mouth....BUT if you didn't mean it for me then who are you talking to?

1. Who said you're supposed to impress me? Where do you get that from? 😕😕😕😲😲

2. I met a FAR, FAR higher percentage of civil, decent, sincere people OUTSIDE the US, yes.
You want to make a very big poo-poo of words like "NEVER" and "ANY" and you'll miss (and you did) the gist of it...... Still doesn't negate MY experiences/observations during my 11+ years outside the US.

3. So just because someone wants someone else to cease and desist from a certain action doesn't mean they should physically stick a physical sock literally in someone's mouth, but now suddenly you, the Weisenheimer of All Time want to do what Chris Cuomo does and take it literally. Idioms are unthinkable for Lyle when it suits.

4. Go ahead Lyle, keep taking it personally, even when I don't mention you at all.

its not about dealing it out and not being able to take or inability to hear critique of the US it is you mr darkness. You just love to irate people. My British hate crime thread is just news articles that pop up that are strange. Your talk is deranged serial killer talk. How dare you

[Gandalf]

In defense of Brock I would say that I would prefer to live in Tokyo rather than New York which is where he is. One is that he would be very unlikely to be attacked finishing a teaching stint there. Secondly the infrastructure is much better. And thirdly you can rent pretty cheaply there. Oh, and finally the women are just really hot. Very little obesity.

In saying that the Americans I know are generally some of the nicest people I have met and I find it very easy to talk to them. With a Brit there is always a dark edge and I know I have that in myself too. I guess also though that I only meet educated and intelligent American people who probably do not represent the entire country.

I think if Brock would give living somewhere else in America a chance he might feel differently. When you are caught up in big cities, have a busy schedule, and are stressed out it isn't just you going through that, it is EVERYBODY! Well everyone else working hard who isn't on welfare anyway and it makes people surly and miserable. New York is famous for that attitude, but how much of that is true I do not know.

Well miles we must keep things in perspective. Brock talks about how nasty people are, he is very nasty himself, thank you. Foreigners prob overhear him and talk about how fucked up Americans are

I watched that Vietnam series and to be fair I can understand millions of people there having similar views to Brock. Very bad to invade a country and then abandon it like that.

I like a lot of the men that served there though. They were patriotic but saw that it was a con and that they could no longer trust their country.

In a way I think such a view is the height of loce for ones country. To be able to say I love my country but we were wrong and betrayed those people. So different to the double speak of the politicians.

I would love to meet John Musgrave and people like that. A very cool man.

[Gandalf]

love

You are diverting from topic of Brock’s shitty personality stop making excuses for him

No it isn't. Its just you showing an utter contempt for England and all the other Brits here. It is something you and Miles and Lyle have in common and it has become like a weird compulsion. Brock makes one post about the USA and you all cry a river. Incredibly feeble. You are all embarrassing yourselves.
