Lol, didn't invent slavery, "hey we're not the bad guys there!". That sentence is true enough, but it seems large swathes of your population are still proudly defending their ancestors who fought a civil war in order to maintain their ability to enslave people who didn't look like them.

We had a black president 4 years ago, we have a black VP coming in now,

Some southeners are rascist, get over it

Your first sentence tells me if I want to continue this debate, I'm going to have to talk to you like you're 12 years old. Sorry for the condensation, but, I can't even...

Obama himself has said that his election doesn't mean racism is over, e.g. https://www.npr.org/2020/11/16/935475339/obama-on-racial-iss...

"Some southerners"? Talk about belittling the problem.

Yeah yeah, I'll take the chill pill, wow, everything's fine now, and will be fine. Sure the world is going to burn up in a climate-change-induced conflict, but hey, relax, take a chill pill, in death you won't feel any pain.

orly? name 3.

My personal favorites:

1. Stepping into WW2 to defeat the nazis and axis powers.

2. Govt is largest overseas aid provider to poorer nations, also on avg, the avg american (normal people not millionares or corporations) give more money and donations to charites around the world than any other industrialized country in the world.

3. The American Revolution helped usher humanity into the Enlightment Period, combined with the writing of the Constitution. Hard to overestimate these contribution to humanity.

The US has made many mistakes as the world's superpower. Someomes gotta be in charge though. The natural state of things is not peace and hugs and kisses. They have been fighting over resources since the dawn of humanity, and someone needs to have the biggest military to tell people to stop fighting with eachother.
