That’s what I wish for. But the Monkey’s Paw says the entire earth is now governed by Kim Jong Un.
Yes, let's be total normal people from planet earth.
I hate America, because that's where I'm from and what I know the most about. If I lived in your country, I'd hate it more.
That doesn't seem very ~~demure~~ ~~mindful~~ yesman of you.
“Do you hate the country you’re from?”
Demacia from Runeterra. They claim to be morally right and superior whilst also doing eugenics. Bloody bastards.
Spiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiin
None.
Countries don't have a unique identity I could like or dislike as a whole.
They can vary widely from region to region, city to city, block to block, street to street... heck even person to person. I may not like some people, or at worst some region because of this or that reason but that is all.
I wonder what the farthest you can be from a Walmart and an Applebee's in any populated USA area.

This thread will either be all american hate or super racist, there's no in between
Probably the ones who oppress their own people, wage war, manufacture weapons and death, spread terrorism... I'm not singling out any specific one. It's difficult to compare which atrocity is the worst and choose a winner.
Great answer. You managed to put it in a way that can’t possibly offend while also being honest.✊
Countries I like in no particular order: Canada, South Korea, Taiwan, Japan, Singapore, Norway, Sweden, Finland, Iceland, Denmark, Switzerland, Belgium, France, Germany, Poland, Lithuania, Latvia, Estonia, Malta, Portugal, Spain, Italy, Greece, Cyprus, New Zealand
Good choices, especially for Taiwan.
I have no particular dislike for any country. I just don't like some people I know personally or whose actions are known to me.
I've visited a scant handful of countries. And you want me to pick a least favorite? Let's start by enumerating my options: US, Canada, Thailand, Mexico, Bahamas, Cayman Islands, Jamaica, Laos.
I guess I'll have to say Jamaica because they were pushy as hell with tourists, but not in a scary way. I don't have anything bad to say about my experiences in any of the rest. Canada gets too cold in the winter, but not while I was there. I could occasionally hear gunfire in the distance from the resort in Mexico, but it was never worrisome—I can sometimes hear a gun range from my house. That's it. I'm pretty easy to please, I guess.
Why is this posted twice by two users on two instances? OP I think you exposed your alt.
Read the thread title again….
I assure you, that other user is not me. Honestly though, who cares anyway? They’re two totally opposite questions.
I see the distinction, my mistake. Was trying to be helpful in case you double posted by accident.
No problem! Thanks for the heads up even though it wasn’t true. :)
Not that I'm not famous for saying it already (and I should clarify I hold these sentiments for national governments and the cultures, not civilian individuals), but the British ranks on top for their overreach, if not also Japan and Russia for the weight their cultures put on people.
My least favourites are in no particular order; Argentina, Australia, Chile, France, New Zealand, Norway, and the United Kingdom. Reasoning is that they have territorial claims in Antartica.
Antartica belongs to the inhabiting wildlife, no one has the right to claim a territory there.
