NSIR: It is overwhelming to see the countless videos posted online
of WC fans from around the planet singing the praises of the people of and things in the USA. Seems like 80% of reels on FB are this.

Like addicts getting their first taste of a drug. Doesn't mean the drug is
good for them. Sorry, but things like Buccees, 32 ounce sodas, highly preserved snack foods etc do not make this country great. They are destroying it.

I stop at Buccees whenever I pass one, maybe 3 times year and hit the specialty meat freezer. Only comment on the video is I have no problems with cooking the stuffed chickens on the grill. Products are top notch.

As usual, you've totally missed the point. Look beyond those few things to
what WC fans are saying about us as a people. ** Edited by PhotoHokieNC at 6/14/2026, 9:32:00 AM

As usual you don't miss an opportunity to be smug

I think the reason they are so surprised is because...
...their news organization have been telling them forever how horrible we are as a country. The people who visit get to see us first hand, so I'm not surprised by their reaction.

Yep - BBC, CNN Worldwide, etc are intentionally wrong in a criminal way ...
IMHO. I was in Norway a couple of years ago and was literally LOL at their 'reporting'. Nothing they said was even remotely accurate but they don't care.

Why do you watch media so much when you seem to have nothing but disdain
for it? I have no idea what these evil folks say/do, because I give them no mind. And I sure don’t spend my free time watching them. I do find it fascinating the people who just bash the media constantly. They are the ones who watch it the most. And don’t tell us you don’t watch it incessantly.

Uh - when I am overseas there are generally like 2 TV broadcasts in English
so that is what I naturally gravitate towards. I don't watch hardly any media anymore because it is all filtered BS and I don't trust it. Any American, regardless of your persuasions, would find foreign 'news' reporting entertaining. It simply isn't anywhere close to true. All that said, had a great day on Sullivan's Island not concerned about anything other than whether we will put an offer on a house in this week or not.

And in this day and age we sure don’t need the evil media to tell us what’s
wrong with the world. Social media morons do an absolute great job of that all by themselves.

Exactly. Hell, I don't drink 32oz gas station drinks, either. Or snacks.

Some foreigners believe grocery stores are a propaganda set up.
Your post reminded me of that comment I heard or read years ago.

Yep - this is a pretty good Country despite what many in the media say.

It's interesting to see how almost to a person the WC fans
are finding what's really going on across the country.

Every time I go to Europe I am astounded by the lunacy you see on foreign
media. It is literally ALL false propaganda - worse than the media in the US. I understand why it is happening but that doesn't make it right.

We've got a good thing going here if we don't screw it up.
