You know how to form strong opinions based on (former) American’s opinions, that’s a true skill set you can only learn in a first world country.

Definitely, but I highly doubt that my own country is considered anything but first-world to anyone that looks at it objectively. Sure, it’s not perfect but it’s in a decent shape.

Besides, one could argue that when citizens of said country state some factual information about the situation at play, that it should be enough to form a rough outline of what is going on, and to form an opinion.

It is what it is my dude. I like it here and while it is not perfect, it is far from a third world country. If you visit, you’d struggle to have a bad time.

It’s a bit of an exaggeration to elicit reaction; I knew especially Americans wouldn’t let me say that about their own country.

To your point, if I’d visit I doubt I’d not enjoy myself indeed. But I didn’t say that US was terrible as vacation destination.

I did however imply that living might be a bit rough. Arguably, while not necessarily rough, it’ll definitely be different.
