On the one side, many people consider America as the beacon of democracy, exceptionnal, the greates country on Earth and many glorifying sentences. I call them absolute apologist. On the other side, there're people who think America were/has not/will not be/been great. They consider it as a big lie, a fraud, a trick that cunning white males have been playing on women, native populations, African Americans, working classes, immigrants. As such, this nation deserves to be cursed, canceled, sunk, forgotten. They also delegitimate Pearl Harbour, WW2 participation and the Apollo Program. I read some Canadian saying it on the social media, not all.
My opinion: America has done great things, but also bad horrible things, like every country on Earth. Nobody is perfect. America'll have to repair, reinvent and trasform itself after this horrible Trump Presidency.
Discuss about greatness.
