Why is this?

Everywhere I go, in real life and online, everyone is saying that America is the worst country in the world and they want to songesha to England. They treat it as if it is the holy land. I'm 0% American (but I have citizenship), but wewe should learn to upendo your country. America has as many good things as England, and they both have their own political problems. Be proud of where wewe live!
And we have one thing that can help us with these alisema problems: Freedom of speech. If wewe notice a major problem, wewe can rant, hold rallies, do what wewe want.
I know that I'll get a lot of long rants to reply to this, but I just want to tell you. I don't mean to offend people in England. I like the country. I actually want to visit there. I'm just annoyed kwa all of this unenthusiasm.

I'm also not saying that England doesn't have freedom of speech. If wewe have any serious political problems on your mind, take action.

I don't know much of anything about England, but I do know a fair amount about America. And lemme tell you, it sucks.

People say we've got all the equality anyone can ever want. Ha, no. We've got racism, we've got gender discrimination, we've got homophobia galore. Woman president? Naw. Obama isn't even black, for God's sake. He's biracial. He's not even pro-gay marriage either. Equality is a big no no here. And sure, wewe can look however wewe want. But don't expect to get a good job if wewe walk in to an interview tattooed and with a mohawk. wewe might be the most intelligent applicant, the most capable and the kindest, but wewe won't get the job because of how wewe look. Stereotypes are the name of the game. And those stereotypes? They breed so much hatred it's like "WTF happened to America? Land of the free and nyumbani of the brave?" Hate crimes and murder and government officials not caring about those below them and lack of healthcare and poverty. Poverty. We're so far in debt it's ridiculous. And there's homelessness everywhere. A fair percentage of our population is living below the national poverty line, though I can't recall the exact number. And then there's voting. "If voting changed anything they'd make it illegal." Because I don't know if I believe that Americans have any power in their government. This country is really quite a disgusting place, in my opinion, between the people and the systems and the literal lack of cleanliness in cities and in the air and in the water.

And we even only have freedom of speech to an extent, wewe realize. Like have wewe seen that teacher blogger in the news? She blogged about how much she hated teaching, and is about to get fired for it. There's no rules against blogging where she works. Now, she shouldn't have alisema those things, but nothing says she can't. And yet, she might lose her job for speaking freely.

Ya, I agree. I mean, I think wewe should be proud of wherever wewe are born and wherever wewe live. Plus, freedom of speech is something lots of other places don't have and we should appreciate it.
