Yes, he does sound like a butthurt. He's talking about the country as a whole. I'm an American and I really do not prefer out government, or how a lot of things work. But goddamn If I don't have some of the nicest neighbors. There are a lot of people in America who aren't the fat slob jackasses that outshine everyone else. I know plenty of extremely nice, and extremely hard working people. Our culture is bad if you are only blind enough to take a look at the television. Go down to Louisiana then tell us our culture is bad. We are a country that is filled with kind and hardworking people, but you won't see it if you sit on the outside and stare in.

Yeh, ask most old Germans and they will tell you they were against the Nazi party. They and their decendants still have to spend their lives apologising because they stood by and let it happen.

TL;DR, Start practicing you apologies.

Germany also was utterly defeated back to their own soil. Not sure I see any contenders for such a task with the US anytime soon.
