Well, July 4th has come upon us once again — and once again the majority of Americans will be celebrating the “greatness” of the country they call their own. And, seeing as how most of these well-intended & deeply caring folks have almost certainly forgotten how damaging such patriotic zealotry has been in the past […]
Fact #01: America has earned its mixed reputation. While the government of the United States has indeed been a beacon of generosity and forthrightness over the years (and while far more individual Americans have done the same, often to en even greater degree), the reputation of America remains a justifiably tainted one.
