It doesn’t matter what country I’m from

It never does when people like you make this argument. How convenient.

My country is better than the US in most regards, as are most other countries in the world. Youve been brainwashed to think America number 1, but your only number one in infant mortality, gun violence, and corruption.

And yet you still won't name it, you fucking coward.

We are not number one infant mortality and corruption, you fucking dumbass. Do you even what the Transparency Index is?

You fucking bigots think you can just state ANYTHING as a fact as long as it's anti-American. It's beyond pathetic.

The US is no where near "number 1" in infant mortality. What are you basing your assertion? Anything asides from "feels"? Try actual data, you dumbshit bigot.

Gun violence, admittedly a problem, but stating we're "number 1" is just a further demonstration of your ignorance: The U.S. firearm-death rate was 13.2 per 100,000 in 2023, below Venezuela, El Salvador, Haiti, Colombia, Mexico, Brazil and several other countries.

Number one in corruption? Transparency International puts the US as 26th out of 182 countries. In case you didn't know, which is extremely likely, the lower number the less corruption.

What makes you think you just make shit up like that? Do you think it makes you MORE credible somehow? It's just a blatant statement of your incredible ignorance or maybe willing ignorance to defend your bigotry.

Is someone butt hurt their country is garbage, when they've been told again and again it's the best, most special, freest country ever? :(

Please write 10 more paragraphs crying about it, and I'll think about engaging.
