If schools taught their students about every heinous atrocity the US has committed abroad the history books would be too heavy for anyone to carry.

As a Filipino, thank you so much for talking about the American invasion of my country and calling it what it really was – A genocide. Even the most anti-American people in this country wouldn't call it that

Growing up in the US is like growing up with a 6'8", narcissistic father who tells you constantly how incredible he is while abusing you and everyone else around him. Waking up to that abuse can be hard.

I went to Laos once. I'm half Thai so the tour guide didn't know I was American. He told us about songs they sing about the evil Americans who bombed their people. It really changed how I see America and the world.

When I was studying English Literature at the University of Amsterdam in the Netherlands, one of the Americans who taught literature there proudly proclaimed that one of the things that made the USA better and morally superior to Europe was that they'd never owned any colonies.<br><br>And I raised my hand and asked, so what do you call Puerto Rico, Guam, the Virgin Islands, Samoa, and the Marianas then? Or the Philippines and Hawaii in the past?<br><br>He literally had no idea. He was just repeating something he'd heard that made the US sound good.

As a retired military veteran, yes we are the evil empire. I was a poor kid with no debt free option for college. So I got my education by joining the military. That education revealed what an evil country this is
