Also, Macdonalds, Levis, Apple Pie, those things are American icons in a way. So, if someone hates "America", then they should hate things that represent America. You can't have your cake and eat it too. That's different from sayin "I hate Macdonalds." That doesn't mean you hate "America" because America represents many things. If they were specific, then that wouldn't be an issue. But, those terrorists hate America, period. They claim they hate the American "government" yet kill American "people".

What I said has nothing to do with a statement like that. I dont like the "average american", which is a person who has a closed mind, often forces his beliefs on others, is rude, probably slightly overweight... etc. You know.. that stereotype. But there are plenty of americans that I do like.
You're going off topic. I agree with the last part of what you said... But originally we were talking about hating america but liking what america produces. Everything america produces isnt a national icon. I dont like the way america works, I dont like a lot of american people, I dont like some states... But I like the simpsons, a lot of the music I listen to is from america, and I like american food.
I dont understand why youre saying you cant hate the "notion" of america and like what it produces. Because you can. |
