        Were you being hyperbolic, as a mild defensive response to a perceived slight against your country and the people in it, when the real problems are public education failure, health system failure, political corruption, and a food industry that intentionally gets your youth hooked on things like HFCS at an early age?

            Clearly it’s a problematic thing, I haven’t said anything to the contrary. I’m American, so my observation was domestic.

            Bad faith is pulling the bullshit “America bad” card because you can’t process criticism, when it points to something that seems endemic to the current state of your country.

              Gonna stop the conversation here, this isn’t going anywhere. In order to operate in good faith you need to be willing to put some thought and effort into your comments. A vague “America bad” statement as a criticism of your vague “America is fat” is completely justified. Back and forth bickering isn’t going to help, please disengage.
