Boo Hoo Boo Hoo Waaaaaaa ~
From an persecuted Australian with a raging case of short man syndrome.
What’s wrong with anti-Americanism? I live in Australia and think it’s perfectly normal to be anti-American seeming as America is responsible for the global financial crisis.
I see anything involving anti-, as a means of freedom of speech. There’s no such thing as anti, only free speech. Well that’s what I think.
What is America? Is it a person? Is she faceless? A faceless group, perhaps? Is it those responsible for financial fraud on Wall Street? Is it our political figures? Is it all 300 million Americans? Or am I personally guilty by association because I happen to have been born in America – you know the kind of guilt-by-association like Obama is to ACORN/Voting Fraud as McCain is to Keating or as Sarahcuda is to AIP? Does it depend on who voted for who? Is it all Bush’s fault? Is it solely the fault of the Republicans? Is it solely the fault of the Democrats? Or were both parties equally at fault?
Some collective guilt here, much? Whiny mindless Americanophobia at its finest!
Most Americans (who sorta actually live in America) have a clue (probably because they live in America) as to what caused the financial meltdown. Most people with half a brain know that it was a BIPARTISAN DISASTER, but leave it to the neo-cons and the Americanophobic acne-puberty-stricken leftists door knobs to put the blame in the wrong ass direction.
Some recommended reading for those that are clueless and genuinely want to learn:
Who Caused the Economic Crisis?
Outside Debate, Hempstead Struggles (VIDEO)
Hat Tip: Expat Texan
While the Americanophobes are squealing in their little shiny castles afar barely touched by the tragedy, Americans are pointing, blaming, and complaining. And rightfully so. We are the true victims. Furthermore, we did not choose our fate. Why would someone choose to become broke or purposefully want to loose what they’ve worked hard for, not being able to take care of their families, their health, becoming homeless etc. Sure, these unfortunate happenings have been going on despite the crisis, but it is worse now.
I worked hard to complete college with a professional degree. Despite being in academia for most of my career, I tried to save money regularly, and had built up a nice sum towards my retirement. I wasn’t rich, but at least I had saved some money and invested it. Now, because people who never should have been loaned money in the first place were given credit to the extent that it undermined our financial security – I find the markets in free-fall, and the investments that I had to be in a similar state. Meanwhile, the same people who caused the crisis are now getting bailed out with MORE of my money in the form of taxes.

Are Americans really trying to purposely destroy the rest of the world?
No. It’s your ignorance about the world around you. You’re so stupid that you don’t know you affect anyone else. You make one stupid mistake after the next.
How about you’re so stupid to be ignorant of the fact that there are more Americans being affected by the financial crisis than there are Australians, New Zealanders, Europeans, Canadians, Latin Americans, and the rest of the world put together? Yes, more Americans are effected. Now, get that through your fat thick xenophobic constipated heads!
The average American is *NOT* responsible for making your economy fall down with ours. We, Americans are actually the victims of this crisis. YOU Americanophobes are responsible for yourselves since you come from a free speaking democracy that you feel is superior to America, you’d think that you’d change things so that when the big fat elephant that is America rolls over or twitches, you don’t have to get squashed. What kind of country are YOU , how fragile a country are YOU, that you cannot fight to be independent enough to be immune from America’s failings, that you cannot fight to be independent enough to wipe the drool off of your own chins instead of waiting on Americans to make it better? Or how about becoming more resilient? Or making it so that fat elephants don’t affect you at all. You claim to live in a free-speaking democracy, don’t you? If so, campaign to become a sovereign nation INDEPENDENT from America and get off our lawns!
How about you’re so stupid to not being able to make an intellectual distinction between the American people and her government?
Yeah, but you voted for Bush twice, so you caused this mess.
Huh? Please check your facts, and then get back to me. Mmm’k?
When life sucks for you, you cry like a baby at the drop of a hat and point to America. That’s a crutch. Weak and cowardly people use crutches. Grow a pair, look in the mirror for a change, and turn the finger back at yourselves.
First the same Australian Americanophobic twit says that the financial crisis is funny and being overreacted to then goes on saying…
Being a young guy (20 years old), I don’t have any serious investments. I tend to stay away from investing stock or anything like that. I don’t own a house yet, but will one day. The financial crisis doesn’t affect me whatsoever, it’s over-dramatised and I say it’s time to shut the fuck up about it.
That’s funny. It’s that same lackadaisical attitude that Americans are accused of typically. And the only reason your media goes on and on about the crisis is because your own stock market crashed and some people in your country WILL be effected, ya dingbat. And your media is also aware that most people who hang on to every word at face value are tools like YOU. You fell for it. You adore your tabloids. Keep following the herd having others do your thinking for you.
Until people start jumping out of 25 story buildings, it’s not really an issue yet is it? I mean when people start to jump out of buildings onto the side walk it’s obviously an issue, because someone has to clean up that mess, luckily not me.
Little kid, I actually think it’s time you take a jump. In any event, it absolutely amazes me how one who claims to be unaffected by the crisis feels effected enough to moan about it in their own blog and on mine and give that as a reason to hate all Americans.
The spoiled brat continues…
If you were stupid enough to vote for George Bush once or even twice, you caused your own demise and I’ll happily watch you burn away. We all know the crisis was caused by government deregulation in regards to giving poor black people loans who could never have paid it back.
I guess the main reason the crisis doesn’t affect me is because I don’t make foolish long-term decisions when it comes to money. I make foolish short term ones, which usually still leaves me with money until my next pay day.
Well, of course, a foolish long-term decision can only be made by a yank, anyway, right? As the saying goes, “to err is to human American”. It can be pretty amusing to watch these moonbats play that “victim card” like nobody’s business.
And finally, the blame-gamer prepubescent 20 year old acne-face leaves some solid advice for America: 
Lesson learnt: Don’t give poor black people home loans when they obviously can’t pay them back, lose their houses and the bank loses money because property values in that area went down when they try selling the house to get the money back.
Uh. Um. Mmm’kay? So, when Americans sign a loan, they don’t have to read the terms of their agreement? Wow. Is this the way things are run in Australia? No personal responsibility in your neck of the woods? You have the freedom to live carelessly and when your panties get soiled, you blame someone else like you blame the yanks for all of your woes that you claim are no big deal anyway unless you are jumping off of a tall building? Oh wait, but just a paragraph ago, you were blaming the problem on the buyers. Hey, you wanna make up your mind sometime in the near future? Anyway, I hate to break the news to you, but it wasn’t just black people that needed loans. More typical whiny Americanophobic elitist rhetoric.
Now, I await to hear how I’ve ruined the lives of the Canadians, Europeans, Latin Americans and the New Zealanders. I had no idea that I was so powerful. Thank you for rubbing my ego. One crossed off and four more countries to go.
