I do not like what a lot of the uk government does. If someone from outside the uk claimed to hate the uk government, being a gambler who cant turn down a +ev gamble I'd take a side bet that once given anyones reason(s) that i would nod and agree with them.
I would ceartinly not feel as though if you hated our government then you also hate us. By doing so it could possibly mean that if i turned from once loving our governments policies and to begin hating our governments policies then by such reasoning perhaps i should now hate myself.
I, alike many people from the uk can often be seen in comment threads away from this site stating that i do not agree with decisions they (uk government) have made and as such they do not carry my blessing neither do they represent me because i, alike many people in the uk, have often been disgusted by their actions and in full agreement sometimes of those who display anger(its the net, so hate to! lol) towards our country.. and many uk citizens can often be seen stating this as well online, that this is a feeling for many citizens of the uk, who refuse to just stand behind shameful PM's waving flags because they are those who speak for us, and as such claim to represent us.
Often, uk citizens can be found apolagizing for a government that they have grown tired of and simply do not like in an attempt to remind others that our government does not carry the will of alot of its citizens anymore, and for quite some time.
Im sorry, but i have also seen hundreds of comments on various different places online where Americans strongly disapprove of usa policies, and often needlessly apolagize on behalf of their government claiming many americans are tired of the decisions made by those who represent them. Spending tax money taken from citizens and using it to send family and friends to fight and die in wars they should not need to sacrifice themselves for (just like the uk as well) all the while bringing further resent and anger towards the country as a whole.....while those who give the orders drive home in an expensive car, spark up a cuban and watch the latest slaughter unfold (of both their own citizens and also who is deemed the enemy of the week) unfold from a comfy 2.5k arm chair .
So unless thats just hundreds of trolls on different media sites, forums and youtube vids that i alone have stumbled across, who claim many also share their feelings, it cannot be all americans who feel that by attacking US policies it is an personal attack . I think It would be horrendously naive to make that assumption but at the same time forgivable simply because such intervention and policies have been pissing people off for so long that the US (and to a large degree, the uk included) for one reason or another is always being verbally attacked from other countries.
ive found statements that simply say "the biggest terrorists on this planet are the US, UK and france" . I dont take this personally despite it saddens me to read. But i can with an open mind understand their reasoning for coming to such a conclusion, due to our continuous attempt at intervention.... something we seem to be hell bent on doing... to the point our government has to lie to its citizens in order to gain enough positive backing before sending its citizens out too do its desired dirty work.
