You Should Be Proud of America, Part Ii

...How many nations shed their blood for land they don’t claim as their own? We crushed the Germans and Japan, then turned and gave them back their homes. We could’ve just gone full Roman, wiped them all out, moved ourselves in, and we could’ve filled the Middle East with conquering Americans. Instead we did the job and left, would the Chinese have done the same? they’re still infesting poor Tibet, Russia annexed part of Ukraine. The Indians we once fought with, are now countrymen and voters, you should be proud of America, no nation has done it better. The growing freedom, the success, the inventions that changed mankind… these things never get mentioned when you listen to leftists malign. They lie about your history, elevate every single mistake, and stay silent on all of the things that make our people truly great. They like it when you in the dark, they like it when truth isn’t told, because that means you reason less, and are far easier to control. Reject their constant hate-filled dirge, don’t let them make you embittered, you’re a child of America, you were born to be something better.
