I'm surrounded by 'Muricans' (Those who would bend over for the united states) who are constantly telling me that "MURICA #1 LOLOLOL".
I hate these people. I just wanted to know if anybody else is like me where they'd be willing to leave their country if they had/wanted to. I'd move out of the United States in a heartbeat. Not because there's some place I prefer, it's just the United States is awfully bland, and the rest of the world is so much more wonderful. My stepdad is hell bent on me joining the military and having me be a scientist and develop new ways to fight China when we eventually have to.
I told him "Screw that, I'd rather work in sweden, they seem to be inventing all the cool stuff over there!"
then he went into an anti-liberal rant about how we're a democracy, and that this country is supposed to be conservative (both of those statements being wrong) and that i should lay down my life for the united states and that i'll get my reward in heaven.
I just walked away thinking "Ok, thanks Hannity!"
So facepunch, what's your philosophy?
Nationalism v. cosmopolitanism?
I like being an American.
:patriot:
Nationalism FTW!

Same.
Proud liberal American here
A bit of Nationalism and a bit of Cosmopolitanism.
I'm an American, but I feel a strong sense of belonging and proudness when I visit Greece with my family. I guess I'm proud to be Greek, then.
Internationalism > nationalism

I'm proud to be an Earthling :hitler:
[quote=Albert Einstein]Nationalism is an infantile disease. It is the measles of mankind.[/quote]
I'm proud of my nationality and I would serve
I am proud to be a Newfoundlander and a Canadian
I'm proud to live in a country that I can criticize, lampoon and even hate without any sort of reprimand.
alot of people here in texas give america a very bad name
I'm an American, although I'd like to move to Ireland or Scotland.
usa is better than every other country in the world fuck everyone else
[QUOTE=Sigma-Lambda;19733580]something about Einstein[/QUOTE]
Well his home country attempted to shove him in a stove so of course he's going to be biased against nationalism.
Nationalist American. I want to see the rest of the world, every part of it. But I plan to die in Texas of old age.
I don't like the idea of blind patriotism but I really do [B]love[/B] Canada and would fight to defend it without a second thought

I totally agree with you.
I live in the south, around bible-loving redneck shits who drive jacked up pickup trucks, go huntin', go muddin', and fail in school. It's so annoying living around these people (the "muricans" you're talking of).
I've made up my mind that I'll live in Great Britain or another western European nation after college. Hell I'll even take Canada; it's like an America that doesn't suck cock in almost every way possible.
It's painful being around these inbred hick shits, I want to get out.
Any country in which you can burn its respective flag in front of police officers and walk home at the end of the night without so much as a fine is a good country.
That's how I celebrated 4th of July last year by the way.
Unpatriotic Canadian here.
Perhaps I'd be more nationalistic if we had our own national identity.
I'm more the type to celebrate the heritage of my ancestors, which I know is just as pointless and stupid.

Isn't that a bit of a fire hazard? Why don't the police care when you set fire to something in front of them, no matter what it is?

Move north, it's easier and the people are basically the same as Europeans
I'm Iranian...I swear I don't have any bombs. :smug:
edit: Oh yeah, proud American. But I've lived a pampered life in Southern California, I have little connection to my roots and I start college next year. I feel I'm fucked. :(
