From a German perspective (I usually live in Germany with my parents when I'm not at university in Switzerland):
Germans see America as a very democratic country that treats everyone in the country equally. It is also viewed as a partially Jewish country. Furthermore America has a thriving economy and is based on core libertarian values with low social security.
Germans hate all that.
They are not democratic; they always want a powerful leader to tell them whats right (e.g. when the 2 major parties formed a coalition everyone was happy that now things could change for the better without the annoying problem of the parliament slowing the government down).
Germans don't believe in equality and think deep down that they are the superior race. There is still lots of antisemitism here.
Germany has a protected economy and view America as a huge evil cooperation that wants to take over the world.
sure there are exceptions but the general public thinks that way

Seriously? I thought that was beat out of them 50 years ago.
seriously. If you ask someone openly about it they will obviously deny it, but in their hearts Germans think they are superior

Well that's true. Watch your back.
I know. Thank god I'm finally a swiss citizen.
Excuse me?!?!?! What the hell are you thinking?!?!? This is so not true.
I know you probably think Hitler is still alive.
and therefore left the country.
By the way Switzerland did their part in WW2 to stay unconquered
Seriously there is no such thing that most Germans are antisemitists.
I'm German and heavily offended by your posts.
German: Schreib hier mal nicht so einen Mist, der nicht stimmt. Du hast nicht das Recht für 82 Millionen Deutsche zu reden UND Du kennst auch nicht deren Meinung.
Wenn Du von Deutschland enttäuscht bist, ist das schade. Es ist aber wahrscheinlich nicht der Grund das Du Deutschland deshalb verlassen hast.
Sorry guys, I had to write in german, but this guy is pissing me off.
He doesn't have a knowledge about 82 million Germans and can be taken seriously to be their voice.
