No freedom of speech, worship, property or self-defense. It'd be great if it were true, and there might be a little hope for those ideas since so many Americans think dearly of these supposed freedoms they think they have, but I'm not sure any of those things have ever existed in the US.
It's not a bad thing to want your country to do better or love it above all others, the bad thing is that there's no way to make it better if we can never recognize anything wrong with it, when you see criticism as treason.
"Think they have", little check here, did someone censor what you just typed?
This is Steemit, not America. I'm not saying any country in particular is doing better than America, this is not a competition. I've always found it funny how some people try to get out of criticism by talking about places that may have it worst.
Maybe you should spend some time in North Korea or Saudi Arabia. Then you can tell me how we don't have freedoms here in America.
Honestly, it's like you have no awareness of the state of the world.
So as long as somewhere else is worse, it's blasphemy to point out injustices and oppressions here? Interesting premise. By the way, are you at least aware that the U.S. today is infinitely LESS free than the colonies were under British rule in 1776?
