How does the World view America these days?

shit is weird. 

and here we go... 

confusion about a highway cop having a swastika on his car. can he have it? should he have it? what does it all mean and more 

The world has never really had anything nice to say about America. 

Doesn't Britain generally dislike America?

it's weird. it's basically all britain's fault. if they would've all just stayed on their island the world would be much different. 

I had to block Quora.  It was all America sucks this, America is worse at that. It was constant. No other topics.

i wish this anti-america quora is what i was seeing.  instead its always random speeches that have little to do with the original question.  hard to even explain why i hate quora but its something like that

And the "adults" in the room are too afraid speak up lest they be voted out by a voting bloc of morons who had rarely participated in politics but have been pulled out of their literal and metaphorical caves to turn our system into more of a freakshow than what it was before.

in hindsight, it was all planned so perfectly when you think about it. install a con man as leader of the US. let him shout as loudly as possible as much BS as he could muster. the message of political lies drenched in arrogance seep into a large swath of the US populace, who feed off of the lies. they can relate to them wholeheartedly as they themselves are full of nonsensical beliefs, thanks to social media perpetuating bullshit. eventually this goes on long enough, so that anyone speaking the truth is looked at with disbelief, and viewed as an antagonist. the truth speakers hide now and the lying idiots are in full command. this is where we are now in this story.

now my question is who planned all this, i.e. who is pulling these strings? early on it was led to believe that perhaps Vlad had masterminded donald's rise to the top...that by installing a complete idiot as president, this house of cards would eventually crumble, and devolve into the shouting and madness we have today. but thanks to Vlad's idiotic war in Ukraine, it is looking more and more like he himself has lost the plot, and is more like the wizard of oz than the machiavellian schemer everyone thought he was...

i'm hoping this is at least partly in jest...

i wonder if it's possible to be a conservative that votes democrat or you have to literally be a trumplican patriot to get some on this site

da, it is. I'm well aware there is no evil "bad" guy pulling the strings here. 

my true belief is even more depressing than trying to lay this 'merican shit show all on some malicious actor(s). we are at this point due to a degradation in human morals that has been happening for quite some time now. degradation that has been launched into overdrive, thanks to modern technology. and then there's the whole laws of karma, cause and effect...all that jazz. humans do enough bad shit to each other, the planet, then you reap what you sow. I'm not trying to sound doom and gloom, it is what it is. only thing I can do is try and live life according to principles/values based off of truth, not lies and/or social media.

Oct 3 (Reuters) - Former U.S. president Donald Trump sued CNN for defamation on Monday, seeking $475 million in punitive damages and claiming that the network had carried out a "campaign of libel and slander" against him.

Trump claims in his lawsuit, filed in U.S. District Court in Fort Lauderdale, Florida, that CNN had used its considerable influence as a leading news organization to defeat him politically.

Trump, a Republican, claims in the 29-page lawsuit that CNN had a long track record of criticizing him but had ramped up its attacks in recent months because the network feared that he would run again for president in 2024.

"As a part of its concerted effort to tilt the political balance to the left, CNN has tried to taint the Plaintiff with a series of ever-more scandalous, false, and defamatory labels of 'racist,' 'Russian lackey,' 'insurrectionist,' and ultimately 'Hitler,'" the lawsuit claims.

i'm confused how he's suing a fake news publication. wouldn't this be like suing the onion? and the insults "racist", "russian lackey", insurrectionist" and "hitler" are pretty normal insults to have lambasted at you in today's heated political climate.  i'd totally understand his point however if CNN had compared him to adolf eichmann or reinhard heydrich. that's going too far.
