you're right most americans are quite cocky and obsessed with themselves and stuff like facebook instead of actually trying to learn something and wake up.
takes a while though, or a wake-up call, since birth we are inundated with "america is the best, our people are all saints and all the people in russia/germany/middle east are scum of the earth" stuff
the notion that people are evil or good depending on where they live or what religion they partake in is completely ridiculous once you wake up
