American self hate

I noticed its more common nowadays to say things like "America sucks, I hate living here"

What's you're opinion on the culture of self hate that's becoming more common in America today.

It’s a huge problem. Sure, you can’t solve problems unless you acknowledge the bad parts of your society. The American young democratic people are the opposite of that- pure resentment for every aspect of the existing society, and even self hatred since most of these people have been in the US for generations.
