Why do Europeans hate Americans so much?

[Dunai]

To answer to OP: "exporting democracy". America still seems to believe that enforcing democracy (or the type they describe as democracy) with guns and military is justifiable, which just denotes their imperialistic high-horse privilege.

The United States is okay, some of my favourite cousins even live there... but
Nothing beats the Aussie weather bushfires and all.
We have pretty decent beer and wine too.

List your reasons and elucidate please. You seem brainwashed. America is the best country in the world at what ? Military power ? Probably the Chinese seemed to have outsmarted you here in a non-traditional way. Best at healthcare and education ? No, I would say the public education system sucks (the rich go to private school) and while Harvard/Yale are ok there is Cambridge and Oxford which I think are better. Most Americans can't even get a college education without going into massive debt. Is america the best in the Libertarian sense of Thomas Jefferson ? This is not 1776 I can list countries that are more free/libertarian than America. How is America the best country in the world' ?

Study finds America is an Oligarchy not a Democracy. Researchers from Princeton University and Northwestern University have concluded, after extensive analysis of 1,779 policy issues, that the U.S. is in fact an oligarchy and not a democracy. What this means is that, although 'Americans do enjoy many features central to democratic governance,' 'majorities of the American public actually have little influence over the policies our government adopts.' Their study which published in Perspectives on Politics, found that 'When the preferences of economic elites and the stands of organized interest groups are controlled for, the preferences of the average American appear to have only a minuscule, near-zero, statistically non-significant impact upon public policy.'

I think the UK is more free overall but has an NSA on steroids I think it called M-I6 or M-15 or something. The UK also tolerates eccentric people more where the USA is full of rigid robotic Germans that treat eccentricity as some kind of disorder. So I'd pick the UK overall but it is no extremely better but better to a significant. Now, I could not say that of America back in the late 18th and 19th centuries when it used to be a beacon of liberty but now if you think America is a free country you are smoking crack cocaine.
