Several people have made comments along the lines of ‘they criticise the US but they would never criticise their own country’.
This is a complete, 100%, absolutely false lie, British journalists, writers, TV presesnters etc are constantly pointing out the faults of the UK, often to the point of obsession. It really is quite arrogant to think that the US is the only nation on earth that is capable of self-criticism.
Maybe you should just have a slightly thicker skin, if an American calls Blackpool a dump, I would tend to agree with them, if a Brit calls Atlantic City a dump he is rounded on as some sort of vile imperialist scumbag commie. Grow up.
