Your failure to accept that displays fear and loathing or perhaps its simply an inability to understand.



Here I go, shattering your delusion again.

US doesn't even make the top 10 list of richest countries on earth



But it would make the list for the most in debt country on the planet
A rapidly increasing 15 figure debt that you can never hope to repay

Pretty sure China owns you
Wow, so tell me more about this Mexican hospital that puts the US to shame, the class is waiting


So you’re from Australia eh?

I have noticed that many in Australia I encounter online are very anti American and very pro big gov and accepting of major government control.

This I will agree with.

Especially the white middle class of America, about the least racist out of anyone IMHO, like don’t care one way or another about pigment in general

If I were a student there I would demand my money back and go someplace else.

To the point that it is hard to even talk about what is considered PC these days. I am not even sure that the peoples who's race is supposedly referred to are the ones objecting to some of the terms we are no longer allowed to say. It is hard for a white guy with ethnically diverse friends to bring the subject up with them.

A lot of Latin America music genres are full of racism (and sexism) in the lyrics but no one seems to get offended. Here we go to great lengths to avoiding using certain words to describe somebody. I was told the other day that the word "Oriental" is now off limits (I didn't know, I won't use it anymore but am not sure who objected)

Americans are easily offended. You can't call a fat person fat. In Latin America, if you are fat, your nickname is Gordo (fatty)

Think of all of the white rap fans who love the n word. They are not racists, they love Blacks, some to the point that they probably even wish they were a different race (even I am afraid to use that word twice in a row here). People object to all of the cultural (mis)appropriation, and non offensive stereotypes that they see.

And yes, our cultures systematically do mistreat people of color. I won't even say minorities because in Latin America, whites are a minority yet they are the most prominent politically and financially. Then we ignore the issue of the war (by the affluent) on the less fortunate (the poor). The rich and the poor live by different rules everywhere. But the rich make the rules! That is why the rich get richer and poor get poorer. Whatever bones the rich throw to the poor is usually to enrich the rich in the end. They make the poor think they will get rich in exchange for votes.

Why can't people celebrate their differences without being racist? Most Asians do prefer rice over potatoes. Mexicans do love tortillas (so do I by the way). Hawaiians like to eat poi (and Spam) I think the answer to that is that we are harboring a lot of racists who actually do think that they are superior because the color of their skin. It is becoming more covert but they still think that way.

Re: U.S. to close..

So I am beginning to think that moderators or some with similar interests are posting posts on CF to get ........well.....something other than the likes of this thread.

Then I thought I would , just for a laugh, checkout how this thread is going. Thisun here is a real doosey eh?

Loads of hate disguised as knowledge, intolerance, naivety and general twisting of any data to confirm ones own superior intellect.

Oh, and some pretty plain threats too...."just hope we dont cross paths"

You know, just the normal humanity thing.

After a good laugh, yeah, I am pretty sure the afore mentioned suspicions are correct.

Sorry for the interuption.......off you go....back into it !!!

I missed the part with the link about about the evidence, but think that you were asked: Which hospital? Did you provide the answer? Why the insults?

I mentioned I don’t think Mexico has a good health care system compared to the U$ (talking about health) someone decided that had to be because of my “hate” and “fear” lol

No I didn't provide the answer, but I did provide the link which includes the methodology used to determine ranking.

If I gave you the answer next you'd be wanting to know how and why, easier to provide a link so you can see for yourself.

Insults? Nah
Narky, yep

I get like that when people continue to make silly ill informed statements while ignoring the evidence that is put in front of them

Or you could simply roll back the couple of pages and read it yourself.
You did comment on it after all, surely you know where it is.
