It’s a pretty nice country, it’s got a little bit of everything. It has flaws, and as Americans we complain about them and try to get them fixed to constantly improve it.
I think a lot of the images of America being so bad comes from our overwhelming volume online.
Quite frankly, when American self-criticism will die out - THAT’S when I l’ll start worrying. Criticism is a healthy sign of freedom of speech and pluralism.
I really like the choice of “more perfect union” in the preamble because it does really reinforce that we will always have flaws. To me, it reminds us of our flaws, not to deride us but so that we might seek to improve upon them and never rest on our own laurels.
Criticizing your country because you wish for it to improve is amung the most patriotic things a person can do.
As an American I have a positive image of Canada, they’re the closest thing we have to a sibling in my mind. And if the providences ever wanted state hood I’d support them joining, but I’m sure a lot of Canadians would take exception to that.

The immigration system is kinda broken that some people had to emigrate to Canada instead.
Canada thought you were shit long before the internet
It’s a big reason for our historical loyalty to the crown
as if nationalism for the crown & the city is something to be proud of… how embarrassing
Proud of?
I was saying it exists just because it is believed to make us less American

Our state is Canada, if we were to join then it would be one state
Just like how your states joined, the German states joined together to form Germany, and the European states joined the EU
Also most of the loyalists in the colonies fled to Canada during and immediately after the American Revolution, for obvious reasons.
