2. Much of the "death to America" sentiment is based on our imperialism and refusal to understand that capitalism and Western culture are incompatible with certain people as they exist currently. We spread both imperialism and Western culture at the barrel of a gun. We force change by pointing our considerable arsenal at people.
5. How often did you see American flags before 9/11 versus after? How many times were you told "if you aren't with us, you're against us" prior to 9/11? What the everloving fuck do you think "Make America Great Again" is other than nationalism?

First, I don't think you understand what "Imperialism" means. You are using it just like the people that call Trump a "Nazi" and a "Racist" . Big mean scary words.
The US uses economy diplomacy - You behave and get on Team America, you get access to our markets, technology, trade, banking system and funding.
You side against us, you get cut off. You act an asshole by interfering with our team, money or are so bad you rouse our voters, you get a stick.
This policy works wonders for people who comply. Look at Japan and South Korea. They jumped on Team USA in the 50's and have seen stratospheric growth, prosperity and security all they while maintaining their unique cultures, religions and identity. They modified what was Non-compliant to American/Western/Capitalist values and have flourished.
By comparison, North Korea, Iraq and Iran are perfect examples of what NOT to do. RNK could be sharing in the Korean dream or even Chinese one had they not been idiots. Iraq and Iran have oil resources that could have lent them the prosperity of Saudi Arabia, Kuwait, and the UAE.
Again, those choose not too.
As for American Flags, I grew up in Europe. The 80's was a America FUCK yeah time. Just look at the opening of Days of Thunder.

You're likely surrounded by people who like Trump.
He makes us look stupid. Well, he makes us look more stupid than our foreign policy, healthcare system, penal system and deadlocked legislature do. Even if I agreed with his politics, he speaks like an imbecile. My ESL body guys string together more coherent sentences.

By your own omission, you are surrounded by the "Reeeee" Team.
Most of the world doesn't read Twitter or care. It's our own Media's endless crusade against him that makes him look horrible.
Notice how most people don't even know Obama is a chain smoker? Media carefully crafted that to make sure video and photo never emerge of him smoking.
Same Media convinced the country Saddam had WMDs.
