Go back and read the post all over. Their discovery was positive, not negative. The USA is a dream country.
It’s a dream country for a JJC who has consumed so much of Hollywood movies!

They thought they would see spear trains and modern public infrastructure’s, only to be stunned with 1800 train coaches and railways.


Or probably thinking they did get the best public transport 😂😂😂😂. Y’all better go lease cars!

The food will also shock them. They will know more about poison! Many of them will return back to their country obese or with one or more diseases, since their system not use to those bio engineered foods.

They will shocked when they start seeing beggars and Junkies in Philly!

It's funny to see the Europeans say America was painted badly by their individual countries. I always thought America was painted as the land of opportunity to all.

One thing about America compared to Europe is that everything is bigger...bigger clothes, bigger stores, bigger (more) food, bigger parks, bigger houses,..everything is just supersized in America. I guess that's because all the Europeans that left Europe for New Found land 400-500 years ago wanted more...MORE of everything.

Re: FIFA World Cup Fans Discover They've Been Lied To About The USA by edogu(m):
Europeans were really shocked to discover that everything about US was BIG. gallons of milk, one stop shopping mall, bigger roads, even in some restaurants you don't need to pay for refills. It's free. Friendly people.

Both Americans and the rest of the world needed this world cup. Americans never really understood what world cup is really all about. A confluence of cultures and people's way of living. They needed that to be reminded that there is strength in diversity. To truly appreciate what they have.

For the rest of the world , it was an opportunity to unlearn and relearn the positive side of America.

What is ur definition of modern public transportation when every American can afford flight around the big country who want to invest in super fast bullet trains which few or no body will board it that much ...their roads are superbs wider ....the city trains and underground trains are stronger and durable and their interstate amtrack trains are working well it's just okk for the citizens and more super fast train are being built ...in California and others around the east coast state ... and it's gonna be superb faster than the ones in Asia .....but truly Americans don't need it lol .....watch those videos and see live reactions from visitors not people like you internet rats who don't read and watch documentaries
Re: FIFA World Cup Fans Discover They've Been Lied To About The USA by Reference(m): 9:55am On Jun 23
The first thing I noticed when I first travelled to that country many years ago that explained a lot of things I read about is just the sheer size.

The US is a very large country, I mean it is massive. And I don't talk of large empty spaces. Yes they have great wildernesses but everything is just off the charts in terms of numbers and magnitude.

There is just plenty of everything. And that explains one important factor, GDP. And I think that is what creates the basis for aspirations, the magnet of the world to trade everything from skills to products.

They have a huge, an enormous market. They consume stuff the world produces voraciously and it shows.

So someone was asking the other day that why do they severely lag behind in transportation infrastructure. Why is their high speed train network so rudimentary. The fact is that they can afford air travel as equivalent to walking down the street.

They do a fifteen minutes flight what the best trains will take thirty minutes to do. Who else does that.

Talking about the world cup and stadia. Was just doing a Google search to see that the US has the most number of stadia over 50,000 capacity. A total of 90. A whooping 90 stadia have capacities over 50,000. The closest country to that, China has about half that number. No other country comes close.

And the funniest thing about all that, is that a good number of those stadia belong to colleges, some of the largest arenas in that country belong to universities....schools. What the heck.

See this one. Didn't even watch the video. They're all saying Anerica is far greater a country than they were led to believe by outside media.

America is in trouble - now everyone and their uncle will really want to move there!

Visiting a country is a different kettle of fish than living within the system. When you live in there and start to compete with the locals for resources, that’s when you can give a useful opinion.

That is the liberal and open USA of the previous Presidents that the Trump govt is trying to change. The headlines are coming from the President's own utterances and policies so it is nobody headlining negative news.

Symptoms of an unhinged individual. This is beyond the scope of a general physician, so you may consult a shrink.

So you don't know that Hollywood and your entertainment is funded by the US government to give you the American dream?

Whenever I hear our analysts on TV use Hollywood movies to compare real life Nigeria, I chuckle on my tea because I wonder how an adult in this internet age has not had enough information to know what is real and what is mocking bird

Operation Mockingbird is a large-scale program of the United States Central Intelligence Agency that began in the early years of the Cold War and attempted to manipulate domestic American news media organizations for propaganda purposes.


This is why I fear the APC because propaganda is strong.


Edit: I will give you a clear idea of this operation and I challenge you to do your own research. Do you know that the U.S. deliberately aimed to convince Soviet women that American-style consumer culture and traditional gender norms would better their lives compared to the harsh, exhausting realities of Soviet labor? This same America that people are thinking is the best for women's rights actively promoted gender roles and made women at home attractive? Then you had adverts showing women cooking at home, using their laundry devices, cleaning the house etc?

The Soviet Union took immense pride in its high percentage of women in the workforce, claiming true gender equality under communism. But the US did not like this and pushed their propaganda against them. The US-influenced media flipped this narrative, portraying Soviet women not as "liberated," but as exhausted, unfeminine, and exploited by the state, forced to do heavy industrial labor while still managing household chores without modern appliances.

If I hear any woman use US as a standard for women empowerment, I smh at her ignorance and lack of history. You've been brainwashed. Learn from your African ancestors first, don't let them deceive you with empowerment. They took the empowerment away from you if you do not know. Know this and know peace.
WHY DON'T YOU FOLKS WATCH THE VIDEOS BEFORE COMMENTING??!!!!!

Everyone is saying they're surprised what a great country US is. How huge everything is. That US is NOT like the rest of the world!

Now America is really in trouble - EVERYONE will really want to move there now, even more than before!

That is the biggest lie if ever I have heard one.
The American movie industry is the most liberal in the world. Unlike other countries they tell America as it is.

There are countless movies about the poverty problem, the drug problem, the racist problem, the natural disaster problems, the crime problem, the gangland shootings problem, the early settlers wars, the civil wars, the slavery period ...c'mon what movies or tv does your sister watch....'Real House Wives of....whatever.

They make documentaries about the school shootings, civil rights battles, UFO's and other touchy subjects, check out the latest ones on the Epstein files. You can check up anything about the US (except classified military, security and defence issues) on the net and you will get the absolute facts.

Nothing about that country is hidden. The famous movie about the saddest time about Africa, the slave trade, Roots, was made primarily in America.

Try that in Nigeria or Africa, try to make a movie about Nigeria's civil war and see if the government will allow you.

America is a very open and transparent society for anyone who approaches it without a bias. There is no organized, regulated move to hide anything to portray the country in certain light. Real civil liberties ensure that.

6 billionaires are allegedly on the Epstein list and it is only a matter of time before the names pop out.
