It's always "____ is hateful towards americans". I remember people saying the same in:

9GAG (before it went to shit)
Twitter (before it went to shit)
Reddit (before it went to shit)

Maybe it's not about the social media? Maybe "Americans" (specifically US) has done so many terrible things, and continue do do them, is the problem?

I don't see people being "hateful" towards Canada...

The Canadian government is so nice but fucking complicit in some bullshit. Sure our society isn't as fucked as the US but we shouldn't be free from criticism either. Our track record on indigenous issues is shameful.

I'm aware, sadly. But those are more internal issues, that don't really affect the outer cuntries much. You also don't go about shouting that Canada is the best country in the world and everyone else is a commie socialist lib etc. That the Canadian way of living is the only right way of living... I could go on.
