I’ve been residing out of the US for over 14 years now and listed below are 5 myths I not consider in regards to the USA. These are all myths which can be pushed to US residents when they’re rising up by faculty, media, information, films, and many others. It’s simple to consider these myths if you happen to by no means go away the US or journey to different components of the world and be taught in regards to the historical past of the USA.
Do you agree with these myths? What else would you add to this checklist? Go away a remark beneath to let me know.

America is not a country, America is a continent
If the USA is the bad guy, then Russia is the Devil.
Your video is great but comparing Norway's democratic socialism to the US's unfettered capitalism is not an apples to apples comparison. Everything is different including the wealth per capita generated from oil extraction in Norway. A better comparison would be to Germany or France or even Sweden.
US is definitely no. 1 in the world by far in number of school kids being shot dead
the US turbo capitalism eats up democracy.
Just ask who much millionairs are active in the gouvernment. You can see it right now.
Trump and Musk are just the beginning. I am waiting to see Zuckerberg going for an office. Oh yes, maybe one of those super rich hedgefond managers.
To counter this trend, education might be a solution in the long term. But as long as USA is building more prisons than schools….forget it.
I had my dreams about USA. Now its a nightmare. One threat more on the global playground.
Is he?👀 Yes, he’s wearing a bitcoin hoody! 🤭
USA must be boycotted by all the planet to listen them what is cohabitation between states!
Put the myths aside for a moment. And consider the following …
To me, China is the greatest nation on the planet – If you compare China and US of the things they did internationally, in the last 30 years. China will come out top of the chart.
Yes, I agree that US has also done many good things for the world too, like leading the world in technology advancement and the internet-of-things, from the 80's onwards. But they also did many bad things in the last 30 years. I don't have to go into details of these events and one should know what they are.
By comparison after China rise up and catch up with the US, China has done more good things to make world better, more than the US did in the same period of time.
So IMO, China is the greatest nation on the planet in term of contributing to make world better.
All true
OK OK OKay ….So what is the point….. America is no longer a republic with limited GOV. but a Liberal/MAXIST/DEMOCRAT PARTY COUNTY. With only one party in control of Oboma and his wife. Your RANT is worthless babble…….!
I'm glad you don't live here in America. Move to Russia 🇷🇺. And the US DOES NOT INDOCTRINATE us to think we are the only free country. Your sweatshirt tells us everything we need to know about you.
It is what you say, they get that fed to them from birth. If you criticize the country, you’re not a patriot.
As a Dutch woman living in Canada since 2006, I see it from even closer by.
What annoys the hell out of me, is that you hear constantly “We are the greatest country in the world!” I would scratch my head if I was an American, because there are so many issues (homelessness and healthcare to name a few), that makes the country far from great.
People are kept dumb. They don’t see and hear enough about what’s going on in the world. Take the economy for instance, they think they were the only country whose prices went up. COVID another example. They thought they were the only ones that had the restrictions.
Education is another problem. There is hardly any knowledge about their own and world history, nor about geography, unless they made it their major.
That’s one of the reasons why Americans are seen as dumb, and the internet isn’t making them look any better.
The idea that trading benefits US workers or consumers is also a myth. Since when did trade benefit the American people? Trade benefits only the rich. Wars have been started out of trades, and American soldiers have died believing a lie that they were protecting democratic principles. When, in fact, they were protecting American business interests. It is how the military is used. Not to protect or spread democracy but to protect business interests, and since they donate to government. The government is in cohoots with the rich elites. Is how the game is played.
Under this meaning of capitalism, the US doesn't qualify. The working class people do not own or control the means of production. They have to fight and start unions to get a fair share of the profits made from their productivity. Neo- Capitalism is more likely. It has to be a new term. Production on people's backs.
Liberty. You are free to go out that door and work for minimum wage. Freedom. Huh?
Patriotism. We are con artists now, not patriots.
The American Dream is a myth. It was destroyed through mechanisms like inflation, and compound interest.
If you're married, Until death parts you, and All night long.
That police serve and protect.
That courts administer justice.
How dare you tell the truth!
I have never believed their Freedom thing. Where I live we are even freer. And our democracy is superior, with the voters having the last word, not some kind of highest court with judges appointed by the party/president in power. Good Guys? Think about the wars abroad they started after WWII. Or the actions of the CIA to overturn non-capitalist governments abroad with lies and even murder.
No wonder millions of Americans aré moving to Mexico
The US is number one in the art of self promotion!
trip, you've decided to move, and we said good for you. why aren't you going on about your business, living where ever you live and be happy. america isn't bothering you, so, what's the purpose of this video? do you and we americans will do us.
Other than having a large population dedicated to consumerism, there are many countries equal or better than the USA, I visited them, lots of lovely places. USA has lots of nice places and lots of shit hole cities and counties, choose wisely.
To be fair, America did a good job with the Korean War.
In my opinion u missed 'education'
U missed 'racism'
U missed 'war mongering'
The way most of the world looks at the US is that it is a military conglomerate with a seat at the UN.
Even as a Canadian, I agree with you – but you really need to travel for a while and get away from it. After living in Asia for the last 5 ish years, you start to get away from the continual USA propaganda and see the USA through a different lens.
So I'm new here. And how I see it is you no longer live in the US. But yet you're making a video about what's wrong with the US. So you can make money on YouTube. You're like you're imitating a very big company using people from the United States for your success. I see it that it's kind of funny. You're having a problem with myths In the US. So you don't live here. So mind your own damn business. Quit making money off something you don't like or don't choose to be part of. First time I've ever been here in the last time. Oh and by the way nobody in United States is really hoodwinked when we go into a war. I work for the government for years aerospace Nassau military. We need a war to check out our new stuff. Just be happy that we're not aiming at you. You should be ashamed of yourself You don't want any part of the US but yet you're willing to make money off of it shame on you You know better than any of the other big companies that are here. Oh by the way how f**** short are you. Happy New Year.
If you call democracy a two party system (that in reality theyare not that different, just represent different parts of the establishment) that corporations can buy anything from votes to souls and capitalism becomes cannibalism,then you live in a coockoo land
Freedom from FEAR is the greatest freedom of all … yet Americans all need a gun "for protection" because they fear the other people with guns!!
Yet given that their gun deaths and murder rates are multiple times higher per capita than anywhere in Europe, Australia, NZ, Japan etc etc, having a gun "for protection" doesn't really seem to be working!!
I am a citizen of Canada and the USA baffles me .Your concept of democracy is bazaar Wake up US YOU ARE DOOMMED
So many people don’t really know the definition of most of the idealisms. Capitalism IS free market without control. There’s no controlled capitalism. When you control market you’re entering socialism and communism. Market is not unique to capitalism at all. Many countries that have control over market are not really capitalistic anymore or in between the stage between capitalism and socialism while they don’t want to acknowledge that. It’s obviously a good thing to wisely put some control over the market but people are sooooo afraid to acknowledge that they’re phasing out capitalism.
Well good for you.
Goodness, I didn’t hear you mention CANADA (yes, I’m Canadian) as a democracy.
You have been away.
The #7 myth is that Americans and their president rule their country. They are ruled by AIPAC and Zionist lobbyists!
Président elect Trump is a direct by-product of those 5 myths , or rather a living embodiment of them
Thank you
No freedom, government and king own us in usa
The biggest myth in America has been consistently silencing the fact that it's a country built on TWO GENOCIDES; the first one, against the native inhabitants; the second one, against black and Mexican people.
Pretty lame presentation for a simplistic and shopworn set of ideas. I agree with most of his conclusions, but this guy seriously needs an editor.
