Wrong.
They get criticized for outright anti American statements.

Some actually are enthusiastic that America will be defeated, is finished, etc.

They are scumbags.

I think some of the perception of anti-Americanism stems from a confusion of patriotism, which I define as loyalty to the Constitutional Republic) with support for what is essentially the advancement and defence of the Deep State’s Empire (usually (misidentified as “democracy”).

What we have become is not what we were intended to be and bears little resemblance to the founders’ dreams. On this I imagine we agree. I don’t like to think of this present catastrophe in terms of winners and losers, but I do find myself unable to cheerlead what we have become, especially when the effects of it are measured in body counts. Perhaps I’m too idealistic or just old-fashioned. In any case, one positive result of all the chaos and confusion is that it stimulates my longing that His Kingdom would come into it’s full expression. Towards it is a true patriotism that’s unalloyed with reservation and anxiety.
