    You didn’t list a single thing America is #1 in. Is there a single thing other than defense spending?

    All of your “metrics” are either not true or not metrics. That is amazing.

        I’m just asking for facts not biased nationalism. I’m not sure what I expected.

            My point was that America is not number one in anything. It doesn’t mean it’s a bad place to live it’s just delusional to think it’s the “greatest” by any measurable metric. Research “nationalism” if you need more information.

                I’m sure you can list one thing America is number one at? Its such a firm belief you hold you must know one thing, right?

                Or is your opinion just entirely based on emotion?

                    Your position is that America is “the greatest country possible” so the political spectrum used by the rest of the developed world is not relevant to us. We went through this exercise to illustrate that America actually doesn’t lead the world in anything except defense spending and mass shootings.

                    So to bring it back full-circle, before you sent us down a tangent about your nationalism-

                    The largest news organization in America, Fox News, is far-right. What you consider “far-left” is considered centrist to right-leaning in the rest of the developed world. America is not “so great” that we can’t consider these classifications because America doesn’t actually lead the world in anything other than death.
