I disagree with one of those statements, the greatest artists came from Italy.
Leonardo da Vinci, Galileo, Michelangelo and all the Renaissance artists knock American artists out of the park

You really can't gauge "greatness" by the statistics he throws out. Rankings like that have a massive bias against countries with large populations. Almost all the top ranking countries are incredibly small; Quatar, EAU, Norway. I don't think anybody's ever argued that they're the best in the world, but they would be if you went by he scued rankings people love to bash us with.

Hmmmm this makes me wonder what is this greatest country? It's definitely not England any more either England is just a joke and all our politicians need to take their tongues out of America and the EU's arse holes. Oh how the mighty have fallen.
#838 to #817 - N. Korean citizen (07/10/2012) [-]
NONE
There are hundreds of factors to consider if you want to determine if a country is great or not.

You can certainly pick out the top greatest countries. However, THE greatest country is something that I don't think you can definitely give to some individual nation
#857 to #838 - N. Korean citizen (07/10/2012) [-]
Sounds like the statement of an American, now that you're not the "greatest country in the world" no one can be?
It's clearly Kazachstan!

Best Part:
"...we cared about our neighbors, we put our money where our mouths were and we never beat our chest. We built great big things and made ungodly technological advances, explored the universe, cured disease, and we cultivated the world's greatest artists and the world's greatest economy... acted like men, we aspired to intelligence, we didn't belittle it; it didn't make us feel inferior...and we didn't scare so easy."

I don't know who the 'we' was - it certainly wasn't most Baby Boomers (or the douchefag talking here) but Yes, up until ~the 60s America was a white-hot engine of progress.

Biggest Bullshit Part:
- "... but you are a member of the worst. generation. ever."

Excuse me, you chubby, sad middle-aged fuck!!!
IT WAS THE FUCKING MIDDLE-AGED BABY BOOMERS WHO ELECTED ALL THESE NEO-CONS AND SOCIALIST DEMOCRATS THROUGHOUT THE 60s, 70s and 80s WHO PUT THE U.S. IN THIS FUCKING POSITION IN THE FIRST PLACE!!!

-My generation (21) is full of young, energetic people - we just need to develop the discipline to put the effort in and start transforming the world with our talents.

tl;dr oldfags gonna oldfaggulate
User avatar #813 to #807 - speedyonbiscuit (07/10/2012) [-]
Yeah but your generation also has some of the biggest fucktards known to man.
#831 to #813 - N. Korean citizen (07/10/2012) [-]
Every generation has fucktards, previous generations let them run your country.

Biggest issue was the only people who want to take the roll of leader are the extremest.

Also media has messed up politics way too much, rich people buying out media and influencing the news. For example in Australia there is going to be a taxation on large carbon emissions and the huge mining companies ran a huge scare campaign and its been blown way out of proportion. Also politicians are scared to be human because of all the pathetic things journalists cling onto.

We inherited this world, asshat.

If you're pissed, get pissed at the Adults who raised us and created the world that we're inheriting.
User avatar #856 to #816 - SoulCaster (07/10/2012) [-]
Listen, I'm also a part a of this generation (your generation) and I don't like to hear that we are the worst generation ever either but in truth, we are, it's not our generation as a whole, there are plenty of intelligent, well informed, responsible young men and women in our generation with the potential to change this world in ways that we never would have thought possible. However, THE VAST MAJORITY of our generation are a bunch of ignorant, irresponsible and just plain stupid people who have no concept of the dire straits that our world is in and so you have these people out there fucking around, they don't care about politics or the economy and the problem is that this majority is what is representing our generation and they are controlling who controls our countries and therefore our world. We can't be angry with people like this man for saying that our generation is the worst on yet because it is the worst one. The only thing that people like you and I can do about it is try our best to make this world what we know it can be and leave behind a better world for our children to inherit from us. Getting mad at the people who raised us makes no logical sense because we do not get everything that makes us who we are from our guardians it is a combination of our guardians, friends and media (especially media these days) when you have a generation of kids looking up to people like Nicki Minaj, Justin Bieber, Lady Gaga, Lil wayne it is to be expected that they are not going to be the kind of people that you can depend upon to change this world. Don't try and drop all the blame for our generations stupidity on other people like our guardians, that is part of what makes our generation so bad, no one wants to accept any sort of responsibility, we are responsible for our own faults and no one else, we are a generations of ignorant fools and it is up to us to try and find a way to fix that.

This is true, I just despise when sad, dried-up oldfags shit over the generation that they crafted.

This is my concern, because i see the cycle going like this;
1. Our generation is born with access to cool stuff (videogames, internet, J-culture, etc) that lit our brains UP.
2. We get ideas a little kids... we want to DO cool stuff.
3. At the same time, we're taught to Obey society and our parents.
4. As we grow up, we continue to waste our time frenetically switching between;
a. Wanting to please our (usually destructive and/or lame) parents
b. Wanting to do well at school/jobs that numb our brains and reduce our potential and waste our time
c. Wanting to make all those cool ideas come true.
5. ...And I'm scared that our generation will end up not getting anything done because the a always fucks over the efforts in c, with b presenting daily challenges.

You're right about how each generation has the Ability to Choose to be lazy or not ---SO--- what I'm trying to do is fight the negative influence of our parents, who, from my point of view, have almost always been a negative force on kids of my generation.

I think that will help kids to stop living in these unhealthy, interdependent love-hate relationships with parents that i see, and will help our generation to start finding its own power and growing up.

I only have to say one singel name you know, and that proves that it is the worst generation so far, with worse to come.
#863 to #819 - swagbot (07/10/2012) [-]
I suppose you mean "JUsTin BeeBur" Lolhurrdurr. Or any 'child star'

- Are you not taking into account all the cultural changes that baby-boomers pushed to make our culture obsessed with 'child starts'?
- How about all the middle-aged parents who indulge their twitterpated daughters and BUY their music/movies?
- How about the parent who raise these kids and then pimp them out to Hollywood/the music industry?
- How about the adult managers and staff that maintian these peoples' careers?

You're done. Make sense or gtfo.

I was gonna say Snooki "Asshat"
Even though that Justin bieber would have been a good choice, i think you have seen the video of him not even knowing what Germany is.
And just to get it clear, i didnt call you a retard, but you are really acting like one right now, "Asshat"
But yeah, every generation from now is getting worse and worse, we only know about yours because of the media, but the media is also one of the biggest reason we are getting more and more unintelligent.
But USA is the one being mentioned the most becuase of the thing with them being all arrogant and power sucking idiots.
"Uhhh we best country in the world, we have FREEDOOOM! UHHH LOOK AT MA GUN!"
And the cultural chances? Well if you think that mtv and being pregnant at 16 is good, then i think you should seek medical attention.
Well, they buy their childs all that music, becuase they propably couldnt get it when they were their age.
And those parents are just trying to live their lives through their childt and that is pretty sad if you ask me.
Well those managers are usally just powerwhores commanding with people.
I live in Scandanavia, i do not wanna brag or anything like that, but it is the best place in the world to live.
We have one of the Highest averege university exam scores.
Free health care, economy that actually works.
And the best thing of all, we dont fear everyone and everything, we feel safe here and we don't need any gun to just swing around screaming i own this place, and i will shoot your head off if you come any closer.
And USA? yeah they are one of the very worst to live in.
And that retarded saying of "You're done"
They fear everyone and everything.
They are power seeking whores.
They dont really care about anyone but themselves.
The Media is mostly just stupid people doing stupid stuff, becuase that makes everyone in think that they arent that bad, but they really are.


Sry for clusterfuck of words, it wouldnt let me post over 25 lines

You are an idiot, do you think people are born into a generation and who and what sort of person they are is predetermined?

Each generation shapes the next, its a fact of life.

Its like saying to children raised by Nazis its your fault you got brainwashed.

"I only have to say one singel name you know"

What name is that? justin bieber? He has no true influence on the world, just bad music.

No one wants the truth. Especially the media.   
   
Who ever wrote the script for that scene and who ever allowed it to be aired should both get a medal.
