rope day cometh

Than why are they still here?

Ask them what country is better. Any answer they give will be swiftly debunked.

>Black person
>Opinion discarded

>America is the worlds only superpower

It's because America has always had a jewish population

>America was never great
>It allows millions of people to live off of welfare

It's always niglets with these hats or chanting it when they got full apeshit mode.

>liberals in late 2015/early 2016
>AMERICA WAS ALWAYS GREAT

>liberals now
>AMERICA WAS NEVER GREAT

Did you pack your bags yet?

"Then we will make it great, that's why I'm voting Trump"

Apparently they half-agree with Donald Trump, who thinks America isn't a great country.

Britain 400 years ago

Then why have people always been willing to migrate to the US?

America is the best country in the world.

Every single person knows America exists

stupid niggers will say it was never great because they don't realise that their ancestors were forced and the whites came to build the greatest nation on earth

The biggest argument against this is denmark having the highest gdp. However, when you account for purchasing power denmark is far, far below the U.S. which sits at the top.

Britain 400 years ago didn't even have electric lighting. I mean how can a country be great if everyone is living in the dark? That's nonsense. I can flip a switch on the wall and lights come on. That's magic. I live in a magical country. How is that not great?

There is a country named Liberia in Africa which has been founded by former american african slaves. They can settle there, not a single white present.

Read a book

"because of you"

Trips don't lie!!!

I can't figure out what country they think could be better. Why won't they move?

>One of the first nations with civil rights

>Ended slavery

>American dream, a privilige to become a true American, regardless of ethnicity, wealth and culture. Upholding the laws and breaking your back for the flag is all that is needed.

Plenty of good things to say about pre-1900

America is trimming the fat, and getting back to the constitution it was founded upon. If you don't agree with those values, then YOU are in the wrong country.

Luckily enough, I don't have to deal with these people.

Makes me wonder why they are still in America if it is so fucking horrible though.

What a stupid argument Cleetus.


USA 26 years ago didn't even have internet. I mean how can a country be great if everyone is living in the dark? That's nonsense. I can flip a switch on my computer and lights come on and I can know things from other parts of the world instantly. That's magic. I live in a magical country. How is that not great?

No need to be great, just have to be the best.

Even the delai lama called your country a joke full of Muslims, what are you talking about?

We had internet 26 years ago you ridiculous faggot. How fucking old are you?

Of course a black, the people whose status and lifestyle were elevated highest due to colonialism, would own something like that.

I disagree. One doesn't have to be the best at everything to be great. Everyone, and everything, has pros and cons, advantages and short comings.

People who focus on the cons and short comings OF PREVIOUS GENERATIONS to advance their own agendas are parasitic scum.

this dogshit slogan is like atheism.

whatever you do, DON'T stand for an ideology that is based on some unconfirmed lack of something. have a more positive ideology.

besides, those are like the Greens in Austria with the borderline deranged "whoever love Austria must be shit." line several years ago.

I tell them "I agree we've had niggers since before the constitution."

America should be nativebros and white people. Eastern Nativebros were civilized and sheeyit, just without technology, which they didn't need because the land was so perfect. I sort of wish America got a composite racial identity like Latin america, but combined the Democratic ideals and willingness to assimilate to similar cultures like the Iroquois and Cherokee rather than the shit reality of "we wuz slaves n sheeyit you gib monies forebuh" that we have now.

800 years ago and I agree.

Liberal propaganda

DAY OF THE ROPE

...

Trips of truth

Tell them to be thankful else move back to Africa.

That's actually a good argument

Cheers to that m8

I asked them if they passed history class in Elementary School.

Then why did your family leave your country and move here?

I first inquire what, specifically, they mean by the word "great." Terms must always be defined before entering into an argument. This age of Newspeak has obscured the original meaning of many words. If they persist and the matter isn't dropped, I challenge the conditions of the argument.

I explain that an argument is a waste of time, as our Weltanshauungen are impossible to reconcile. After explaining the key points of the cyclical conception of history as conceived by virtually every Traditional society - from Hesiod to the Bhagavad Gita - I dispel their notions about Progress and linear history. I explain the concept of the Age of Kali and the dominance of the Third Estate. My various and sundry allusions to ancient texts unfamiliar to the other party will serve to give me an air of gravitas.

Impressed and cowed by my patrician air and encyclopedic knowledge of the ancient sources, my opponents will bend their knees before me ("adorant", the Latin word used to describe the genuflection of the Pope before Charlemagne, an attempt to consecrate a new order of Melchezidek). But I am a merciful god. I will show them the light; and reveal that their nature if slavish. Only in bondage will they realize themselves. And so I will take them as slaves, for their benefit and my own.

I tell them that I agree with them.

We were never "great."

If we had been "great," we'd have been embroiled in warfare with all the other autistic "Great Powers."

America was never Great, it only had two modes:

1. Small but plucky backwater nation.

2. RAPE-TIER GLOBAL SUPERPOWER

K, bye.

The obvious answer is the end of WWII and the few decades after, when we showed the world our strength and were the definite leading superpower. We may still be number 1, but we are falling quickly due to our infrastructure being dismantled from the inside. By "Making America Great Again", we will replace those that are damaging and exploiting this nation for personal gain. We will fix our military and show the world we have strength still.

No but it is gay

I just say "For you"

It pisses them off because this is exactly what they are thinking any way but are almost unable to believe I would agree.

MAGABOCOBEA

I never thought of it that way.

Kind of like "Congratulations, you're a failure!"

>400 years ago. You mean 100 years ago, at the very least.

Ever heard of Pax Britannica?

WWI exhausted us, and we never fully recuperated after that.

I just laugh and call them ignorant. When they bluster and spout leftist shit, I just laugh harder.
If they get violent or threatening, I just put my hand on my sidearm. If they continue to chimpout, I pull iron and draw down on them, while loudly proclaiming they are threatening me with violence, and back away whilst doing so.

>Inb4 youre a puss for backing up

No, I'm smart. By loudly proclaiming they are physically threatening me and backing up, if I eventually have to put a nigger down, I'm getting off any bs charges. Take a legit firearms defense course, you'll see exactly what I'm talking about

>WWW
No, you didn't. The only 'internet' you had was communicating to mainframe computers, in order to use terminals.

This is gold also. Thank you based user.

...

America was great between 1945-1991. After the USSR, they had no real reason to hold power, and since they weren't an imperial power their power slowly relinquished. This is most likely why America starts wars in the Middle East - easy to bully and rally the world against and oil - so that they can still retain some of that power they once had.

Read a history book, nigger.

just show them the 1950s

>Black
>Person
>Opinion discarded

>"For you"
My fucking sides in orbit.

...

Lack of options. I am too young to move out. America was never great and still isn't, but it it okay. Compared to other near countries such as Mexico, Canada, Russia, Japan, and the UK

>All those self owned shops

Where did it all go so wrong?

I tell them to open a history book.

Come here, and you will fucking know how dope your contry is.

>too young
>it was never great

You're saying the US is OKAY compared to Mexico as well in that statement, just think about that. You don't know shit.

>sick link

Isn't that the name of the President of Botswana?

>UK
>better than America

A country is more than it's healthcare system user

Leave then.

I want to see her permafrown.

>these countries i have based my views on strictly from media are better than the country i live in

Go to Mexico and get beheaded then.

Go to Russia and get robbed by Gopnik.

Go to Japan and get bantered to death whitu piggu.

Go to UK and live in 1984.

Kys skid.

Pic related, you, a supreme autist.

Oh shit dawg, come to the UK, I'll show you how to die like a cunt

Isn't Great all relitive though?

Id say, spare a few shithole enclaves that can't be saved without a total reset (Haiti, Iraq, Venezuela, Baltimore etc) the entire world is better than it has ever been?

Gonna carve him up with a spoon Nigel?

Don't be a loon.

>the 1950s
Ah, yes, the 50's. That decade that idiots idolize even though hardly any of them are old enough to remember it, and the scant few who are look at it through rose-tinted glasses.

Don't be an idiot. This is the decade of the second Red Scare, the Cold War, Korean War, and millions of veterans who got shellshocked in WW2 taking it out on their Boomer children. The 50's were not great. They were just not as crappy as the 40's and 30's.

...

better kill yourself now

America is a shithole

Merely the fact that you can say so without getting locked up or shot proves we are greater than many other stuff. Also nice trip dubs.

kek you can get a goddamn machete at walmart when you're 16

no point in time of the united states were people happier than in the 50s

You could have a house, two cars and enough money to support a family all on a high school education

Everything has been going downhill since the 10-20s.

woah now, better bin that shitpost before i get the law men to knock roughly on your door

>What do you tell people who say "America was never great"?

Reported to local authorities. Enjoy the rehabilitation classes Nigel.

Netherlands, pretty much most of northern Europe.

There were improvements introduced by colonialism but they were hardly available to any of the colonized people until later.

Then can bring up the demographics of those nations...for the time being anyway.

The Soviet Union beat us to essentially every other space milestone.

Leave.

I'd ask why some underage faggot born 15 years ago thinks he can talk to me

True, even a black leader didn't make it great. Let's support a change this time and vote TRUMP.

Trump hates mexicans and immigrants because he is a fucking redneck

Well, without it you'd be dying of starvation, AIDS, or Ebola in a mud hut

>Call your country great
