Americans don't suck.

He respects the healthcare professionals.  Except the OB/GYNs and Virologists.  Those doctors are evil socialist marxists.

Well you shit on this country so much I thought that you might want to completely disassociate with us. 

My daughter Just got back from a year living in New Zealand.  She had a great time and her employer offered to sponsor her so she could stay longer but she wanted to come back to the USA to be able to snowboard and then she is going to live in Australia for a while.

Lol you start a thread telling people they are selfish self righteous pricks. Then feel your justified in how you act based on their responses? That's some straight up Boise level self righteousness not seen since Typical Boise Fan.  Glad your enjoying the honeymoon phase and I hope it continues for you. But don't be a douche troll and then act like you were clearly correct or I'm just going to call you Typical US Expat.

First of all, I called Akkula a Marxist and not any healthcare professionals. I also have stated that I don't believe abortion should be illegal. You're a liar just like Dr. Anthony Fauci. I know you can't think for yourself, so continue to hobnob your master or maybe head southeast too.

That's awesome she enjoyed it and is planning on continuing with another adventure

You are right about this.  Healthcare professionals in the USA are paid way too much due to cartel practices to limit competition.

I haven't had a social media account in 10 years. But you do you as always. 

Ask yer wife what yer passwords are.  She’ll slowly spell them out for you so you can get back on Facebook.

You are giving social media companies a pass with this take.

Did you think of that all by yourself? Nah, I don't think so.

It's getting kinda creepy regarding your infatuation with me, though.

Why? I don't rely on social media that the vast majority here do. And I don't think halfmanhalfbronco is relying on it here as well. 

None of the links he used are from social media.

You're just making stuff up now. You're better than that. And I added that none of the links in HMHB first post were from social media.

This is a fallacy.

I am upset many Americans don't realize how awesome most Americans are.

In the real life, the real world, we mostly get along despite being unique as a demographic.

The thread was fucking lame.  The stats back up that Americans are not just "not sucky" but pretty awesome. 

America is less racist, less homophic, more giving and more diverse.  Cry about it because it destroys some preconceived notions.

Pointing out that social media does not reflect daily community and associated interactions is not a reason to not talk about...just that...

Talking about "Typical Americans" when you have been an expat for 5 minutes, and how the Natives that largely don't want Americans there (Overhelming sentiment against American immigration).....

Yer just a douche...

[CPslograd]

I do have to say, just about every expat I know goes through a honeymoon phase.  
 

The vast majority eventually decide The States aren’t so bad after all and come home.  Other countries have their warts too.

Ill admit it started as a venting thread...

I completely lost my respect for hmhb when he nonsensically personally attacked another poster over and over again because of a BS fishing argument on the MWC forum. When he, of all posters, responded in the way he did, I thought it would be fun to troll him a bit, but that always unintentionally catches others in the net.

I honestly absolutely loved Denver. Best city I've ever lived in, but we really wanted to experience living in another country and made sure it happened.

I was expecting nice ppl here in NZ from the stereotypes, however, I was unprepared for how different I would be treated by patients. Like super sick, not having a good time, patients. Instead of overwhelming self-pity, there is sincere appreciation.

And my coworkers? It's ridiculous the amount of support I receive, sometimes I'm uncomfortable that it's too much.

I admit,  I may still be in the 'honeymoon phase', but its a good feeling to really love going to work again for the reasons you went into the field in the first place. It's been a long time since I looked forward to going to work. And the political drama is so minimal.

Anyways, good luck to you in the US, all my family is still there and a lot of them are afraid of what's to come, but it can definitely be worse.

Better than admitting you did not do your best to provide positive health outcomes because you didn't like your patients, which you LITERALLY DID.  And continue to do right here.  The level of care you provide should have nothing to do with how much more you like Kiwis than Americans.  And venting?  What do you have to vent about?  

If HR thinks you sounded like a complete douche...you probably did.

Your thread was insanely douchy, pretentious, insulting and not backed by reality which goes back to douchy.

And there was more going on in that now very old fight including insane personal attacks against me and my family as well.  But we buried the hatchet.

This was my exact point. Not to mention the feeling of home/familiar generaly outweighs the warts of your own country over time.
