      That’s probably because the loudest and most overly defensive ones are the Americans you’re most likely to encounter and remember in online arguments and on American news, so that colors the perception. Especially when you don’t live amongst the more reasonable majority of Americans 🤷

      I’m starting to get this feeling too. Most of the Americans I know, myself included, rip America a new one at any given opportunity.
