Funny. That's exactly how I feel about Americans.

We're mostly okay people, but we are disenfrancised and we want to work on our own shit. Meanwhile our country slides into ruin and fanaticism and the rest of the world is getting the unpleasantly true impression that we are torturing egocentric bullies who have never really had to live with the results of a war or shortage, so we're just fine dumping it on other people.

I miss feeling okay with my citizenship.
