Elon Musk extensively studied this clip of how to send a man into orbit . <| sep |> Okay , here we go ! Sure , some may respect America . I respect America . I also respect UK , Canada , Poland , Australia and Ecuador . Respect as in respect for America ' s power . Not as in just natural respect for a country ' s nationhood . Are you going to tell me that Ecuador is on the same tier as America when it comes to power ? And really , saved Europe on multiple occasions ? We all would be Russians ? That you are top dogs ? byprojectedgdp . phpsoftpowerindex I , completely honest now , just thought this is what trolls said when they mimic American nationalism . It actually is quite funny . Let me assure you , I am completely serious . as a guy who isn ' t 100 % straight I wouldn ' t want to live in America . There are 10 million LGBTQ Americans . Believe me when I say that not all of them live in fundamentalist Christian concentration camps . The vast majority of the country , especially in urban areas , is very accepting of LGBTQ individuals . I have no doubt that you would find a comfortable existence here in America . Would it be as good as in Scandinavia ? I ' m not going to lie , probably not . But you make it sound like we ' re all homophobic pigs . This would be an example of the very vocal minority being heard over the vast majority of people . To be honest , most people don ' t give a shit if you ' re not straight . As a guy who believe that separation of church and state is very important . Hey , congratulations ! You ' re in agreement with 99 . 99 % of Americans , over a quarter of whom just straightup reject religion in all of its forms ! Everything else you said in your commentAside from the stuff that I went over earlier , everything else that you bring up in your comment is pretty valid . Gun violence is a real issue in America . Universal healthcare is probably a good option . I only wanted to go over the things that I thought were incorrect , versus the things that I simply disagreed with . I ' m not saying that you ' d prefer to live in America . You ' ve grown up in a Nordic society , one that is fundamentally different than the one I live in . You ' d probably prefer to stay where you are , and I ' d probably prefer to stay where I am . I appreciate the fact that you actually brought up real issues and gave reasons behind your judgements on them versus just blatantly criticizing America and trying to make them look bad . What you ' ve done I ' ve got no issue with . What I do have an issue with is people demeaning and insulting America . I feel that I have some obligation to defend my country . If I were to call your country just a bunch of damn hippy commie Muslim socialists , and actually do it seriously , not as a joke , you ' d probably want to defend your country too .
