I've lived outside of the USA all my life so maybe I've avoided all the propaganda but I often see people online calling it 'the greatest country in the world.' I think its just the biggest military in the world. I can't think of anything it does better than anywhere else in the world. Anybody who disagrees give me an example and me or somebody else in the comments can show somewhere else where its done better.

God bless everywhere except the USA 🦅🇺🇸🩹🌭

Having never been to a country hardly qualifies you to have an opinion on it.

We are #1 in power, true. We’re also #1 in agility, the ability to adapt, progress and find solutions. #3 in cultural influence. #2 an entrepreneurship. We are the largest in terms of gross domestic product. We’re #1 in space exploration, aerospace and aviation, hands down. Not to mention jazz & blues, Motown, food, guitars, corn, entertainment, beef and higher education.

As another user pointed out, much is betrayed in your last sentence. It’s one thing to state a belief; it’s another to do so with antipathy and venom. Sorry if you don’t like the US. We’re having a bit of a crisis at the moment, but don’t count us out. Look all you like at lists. Some that qualify as the happiest nations in the world are among the poorest.
