The “hates America” thing isn’t making anybody look particularly intelligent. If Wright is guilty of hate, it’s not “America” he hates, it’s parts of America. He’s an American, after all, and has many American friends and supporters, and I don’t think anyone here would say he hates himself or them. (Of course some will. Whatever.)

The question then is: Is it acceptable to hate (or be angry with or be disgusted by or whatever suits a non-biased purpose) parts of America? Of course there is. And I think evidence would say that Simon and supporters would agree.
