I also wanted to point out for you, Thump, that if you ever see me using the term great Satan and stuff like that and you might see that as me betraying an ally of my country, I don't mean that in the same way that the Muslims getting blown up by drones are meaning it. I don't actually believe in a real Satan, and I actually identify more with Satan than God, as Satan is the knowledge giver. They call Canadians such nice people because we are trained to be this way. To avoid conflict. To self censor and hate the American idea of free expression. To smile things off. We are trained from a young age to dislike America and Americans, and I was especially trained by Canadian society to be super anti-war, and 9/11 happened my 1st week of high school. The teacher said the yanks finally got a taste of their own medicine, as we were watching the towers set ablaze on a tv in class and the entire class roared out in laughter at the teachers remark. This is how we do things here, in Canada.
If Canada had the means though, and the power that the US has, we'd be the great Satan. Any nation would. It's easy for Canada to be seen as such peace lovers, when we just don't have the means to be as bad as we could be. With great power comes great responsibility. As the world's superpower, the US has certain responsibilities. I fully understand this. I'm glad the US stepped in during WWII. So again, me calling the US the great Satan is kind of just a playful thing. Don't take it too seriously. I'd rather the US run the world than China, for sure.
