Quite the tired yet common criticism I get from Americanophobes is the following:
“You (sic) discredit lump every criticism of United States to “Americanophobia”. – Aby “The Liberal – The Internationalist”
Doesn’t an “internationalist” mean that you’re culturally aware? 
Anyway, what the Americanophobes do is bash Americans (even if done so cleverly and subtly), but when they get called out on their bigotry, you hear something similar to a ….
“NO, I DIDN’T!!”
I am the type of person that can read through veils and see right through all the smoke and mirrors. I can see the wolf beneath the sheep’s clothing. Well, most of the time.
Americanophobes all have one thing in common. They live religiously by the “Most Americans…..” Syndrome
- Most Americans do…
- Most Americans are…
- Most Americans will…
- Most Americans did…
- Most Americans believe…
How does one measure “most Americans”, anyway? If most of YOUR experiences with Americans were bad, I’d think that says more about YOU than the American people as a whole. You were probably an asshole and received asshole in return. And that’s completely justified!
All “facts and figures” prove very little knowledge, a gross exaggeration of the truth, not sharing the whole story, being culturally unaware of how other cultures/sub-cultures exist in comparison, possessing no intellectual curiosity, or just simply being an angry xenophobic person on a mission (militarily or not).
You will be called a “blind nationalist” and be accused of thinking that “Americans are above any form of dissent or criticism” should you dare to disagree and show facts in the form of linkage that contradict their convenient blunders.
However, there are people out there that passionately despise the American government, are truly progressive, coherent, liberal-minded, tolerant, culturally aware, peace-loving, and pro-active regarding human rights.
I often talk about the bad on my blog, but today, I want to display the good.
This Canadian blogger tips VERY far to the Left of Center and mercilessly bashes the American government, yet has no perverted obsession with Americans. Additionally, he doesn’t resort to petty bigotry toward the American people, however, calling a spade a spade.
The blog’s name:
In Case You Missed it – Random ramblings on the rights and wrongs ’round the world
Any occasional knee-jerk reaction by the above blogger can be explained away by too much Vodka, 
but other than that, this blogger has lived in many countries, is culturally curious, and most importantly, he realizes that there is trouble and corruption to be found in places other than the United States.
I wanted to showcase the farthest to the Left non-American blog that I could find that wasn’t based on a nationalist militant agenda resorting to the redundant “We’re better than you and here’s why” mantra.
So, let’s look at the differences more closely. What differentiates a Humanitarian from an Americanophobe?
—>Humanitarians have financially contributed to humanitarian efforts; Americanophobes don’t donate.
—>Humanitarians recognize human suffering – even those suffering at the hands of non-American origins; Americanophobes only recognize the suffering at the hands of Americans.
—>Humanitarians acknowledge imperfections in their own homeland; Americanophobes acknowledge only imperfections in the US.
—>Humanitarians don’t try to act refined, polished, or sophisticated as they rely on content – not pseudo-intellectual jargon to get their message across; Americanophobes lack content and only score high in $3 words.
—>Humanitarians have life on their minds most of the day; Americanophobes have America on their minds most of the day.
—>Humanitarians are happy that Obama won but are still cynical as part of being a liberal; Americanophobes are pissed that Obama won because they can no longer continue saying that the monster American white man is oppressing the American black man (they never did see blacks as Americans, anyway).
—>Humanitarians display a sincere curiosity about the world; Americanophobes display no such humility.
—>Humanitarians aren’t afraid to be light-hearted and enjoy life every once in a while; Americanophobes are consumed by paranoid thoughts, delusions of grandeur, and too tight-arsed to let themselves loose (well, the Americans might be watching, right?)
—>Humanitarians enjoy debate; Americanophobes’ opinions are not up for questioning.
—>Humanitarians aren’t bigots because that defeats being a Humanitarian; Americanophobes are self-proclaimed Humanitarians on the outside, but a spiteful, vindictive xenophobe on the inside (some cleverly hidden – some not)
—>Humanitarians think two wrongs don’t make a right; Americanophobes think two wrongs DO make a right
—>Humanitarians care for others because they feel good in their own skin; Americanophobes are self-loathing and only pretend to care about others.
—>Humanitarians blame the perpetrator; Americanophobes blame America first.
Before I go, I would like to pimp another blog out there. Now, this one is an Anti-American blog,………… BUT, it’s based on a trying truth. It IS hyperbole, but it’s meant to be that way. It’s comedy. You know, I cannot really charge the author for too much as he is not only funny as hell, but is actually LIVING IN AMERICA and by reading his blog, you can tell.
With that said, the author of “58 Reasons to Hate America” doesn’t seem bigoted to me. It’s my personal opinion, but I think he just hates everybody. He seems to favor Muslims, though – but being that his “hatred” is PURELY indiscriminate and hilarious, I’ll sit back and laugh as we all have to learn to laugh at ourselves – something that true Americanophobes are incapable of.
One more.
This Irishman says he’s aware of the whole world. And he really is.
Just remember, if you call yourself a Liberal, act like one. Liberals do *not* resort to Neo-Nazi Collectivism.
