We need to stop repeating that the USA is the best Democracy in the world and wake up to the fact that it is an oligarchy that treats the people like sheep to be fleeced, marketed and used. This is primarily due to the fact that our elected leaders have failed us. They have taken a perfectly good Republic and turned it on it's head.
Anyways. Here is an article that says things that you don't want to hear. It's like Donald Trump. He's like the doctor with no bed side manner. He tells you to lose weight, stop smoking and drinking and exercise. You get all angry and yell and stomp out the door. But the fact is, he's the only one who is telling you the truth.
Every single one of these ingrates is more than welcome to leave and return to their ****hole of origin.
Every single one.

"We" are? No, "we" are not. YOU may be under the impression that "we" give a flying crap about what Winston and his friends think about living here, but I'm not.
And, yes, it is.
In other words, we are doing them a huge favor by removing them from the US.
As far as Trump being the only one telling us the truth? PUHLEASE! President Trump is a politician, just like every other one, he became a politician the day he decided to run. Now, President Trump tells us all the things we want to hear, and even delivers on some of it, but he will, and does prevaricate just like all the rest of the politicians to get the things he wants. When he lies to(to politic we say 'fools') the opposition we cheer him as a great negotiator, but 'we' believe he would never ever lie to us to get what he wants. Yeah right!
The US is a horrible place, stay away!
Opinions and a-holes ... everybody has them.
They think we’re too materialistic, but something tells me they like their smartphones and the pictures our car sends back from Mars.
Then go back!
As Condaleeza Rice once wisely observed during her tenure as Secretary of State, “Europe and the US have different values.” The “Western culture” is not homogeneous. By tradition, essentially to be American is to value liberty, within an orderly society. The rest of the world largely values security, even at the expense of liberty.
It is true, liberty is messier: we have the right to be greedy, self satisfied, homebodies, uninterested in the goings on across the seas— even today in the age of instant communication and quick travel. It also means we have the right to pursue our dreams as far as our energy and talent and a bit of luck will carry us. Not so in large tracts of the Old World.
So when a bunch of foreigners decide they don’t like the way we smell, I say, “Tough. It’s the smell of liberty and it gets strong sometimes. But the alternative is the stench of the death of freedom, the worst smell in the world.”
This is a great place FOR AMERICANS... our love affair with the ‘peoples of the world’ is over. Hopefully all the people who contributed to this piece have packed up and gone back to their homes. Better for them - better for us.
Having lived in 4 European countries, I’ll take America, thanks.
Oh I liked the cool historical stuff like castles and opera houses and the art museums. They can thank our common ancestors for those.
As for today’s Europeans.....there’s no dynamism or optimism or trust in the people around them. Service just flat out sucks and they have a crappy attitude in many cases. Life is vastly less convenient. You can’t drive right up and park. Stores may not be open when its convenient for you to go shopping, you can’t get anything done in July/August because everybody’s on vacation, they don’t have open space, the apartments the vast majority live in are much smaller, they seem allergic to air conditioning or ice in their drinks no matter how hot it gets, everything is more expensive, and there seems to be a license or a permission slip required for everything.
Oh, and they’re poorer. Yes even in places like Germany, its obvious they’re poorer than most Americans. There’s also a deference to authority/government in many of these countries that always creeped me out.
Translate this into Spanish and airdrop in leaflets all over Mexico and Central America.
America isn’t a democracy, but regardless, name a better country.
The gist of the complaints is that Americans are too busy working and accumulating stuff that we’ve lost the ability to live life. Seems pretty true to me. Lots of miserable people all around.
If any of these complainers prefer their home countries they should move back, do they think anyone’s going to be offended?
This is the longest post I have seen on FR. It appears to be from some black propaganda site very possibly Russian. I suspect much of the input is synthetic as to many of the same phrasing and sentence structures reccur v.
Maybe they are right.
But if you listen people like Arnold Swarrenegger,he goes on about the government programs that can help you become a millionaire. Tales of immigrants who come here and start restaurants, pizza parlors, department stores, et al, tells me that there is opportunity for those who seek it.
If you want to vegetate, perhaps it’s not so great.
I bet most of these people ended up in liberal college towns. That would be depressing.
How many went to small towns where you can find some of the nicest people?
Of course there are foreigners who’ve moved to America, or visited for significant periods of time and found it not to their liking. The same goes for Americans who’ve visited various foreign nations.
But this site is simply flypaper for foreigners who did not find America to their liking. The site attracts such people, just as sports, or cooking, or whatever specialty websites attract those with that shared interest.
Nothing to be concluded from all these testimonials by foreigners who did not fall in love with America.
