"I hate the US"
"Oh Russia and Iran hate the US. I love Russia and Iran!"
Unfortunately sometimes people are actually as stupid as they make themselves out to be.
There's lots of states where weed is legal.
The government doesn't have a secret police force to blackbag me for what I say.
I live in a beautiful place near the mountains.
The elections aren't rigged.
The people I know are here.
It's impossible to stage an effective invasion.
There's lots of things to love about the place I live. That doesn't mean I think it's perfect, and I still think about how to make life better. Throwing in with Russia is not an effective strategy to affect positive change, and so I think those who do so are foolish.
European here. The US are far from being the great country that they are presented as in a lot of US media, but it's also far from the terrible place that some people will claim it to be. Sure, it has some massive flaws, but it's still "better" than a lot of other places. You can love plenty of things about it. It's not just black or white.
