Canada. The Indigenous were stripped of their land, given reserves to live on (some of which still don't have clean, drinking water, let alone proper plumbing). In the '60s to '90s, their children were needlessly ripped from their families and placed in horrifically abusive "Indian Residential Schools" run by the Catholic church. Many children died and were buried in unmarked graves.

Our Indigenous are still treated as second class citizens and the past atrocities are still being downplayed by ignorant and arrogant politicians. Check out Ex Manitoba Premier, Brian Pallister's embarrassing speech, and a recently sworn in Indigenous Minister's embarrassment on his first day.

United States. The number of school shootings, the way "corporate slaves" are raised up as the model all employees should strive to be, the obsession with brands (I'm not talking Gucci, I'm talking Starbucks, Target, Apple - yup, calling you out), the pressure to be an extrovert especially in the workplace, low wages, horrific "health care" (if it can even be called that), stubborn adherence to political parties even in the face of major issues with said party, ridiculous obsession with college sports, equally ridiculous obsession with American football (both of which actually and literally cause rifts in some families - yes, it's absurd), blind patriotism (it's not bad to want to protect your country, don't get me wrong - I'm talking about the people who immediately jump to the idea that we are the "greatest nation" and the world should be grateful we exist), terrible education systems (yes, I know, we have Harvard and Yale. We're also 38/71 in math and 24/71 in science (in an assessment from 2015). I won't even get into other fields, it's too embarrassing.), social injustice among both racial and gender lines, police brutality, no social safety nets, homelessness, terrible real estate market, most of the things we "make" actually are outsourced to workers in other countries so we can pay the workers less, most of what we "recycle" is actually sent to other countries (usually, China) to be dumped in landfills, pollution, the wealthy 1% (Bezos, Musk, etc.), working 40+ hours a week and still not being able to make ends meet, I mean I could go on, but you get the point...

Italy often is included on lists of countries that provide free universal health care. The health care in Italy is not free, not universal, and sometimes is of such low quality that it isn't even health care.
Italy is included on lists of countries where a university education is free. University isn't free in Italy. If you abandon your university studies, and want to go back years later, you have to pay all the taxes and fees you would have had to pay if you had been attending all those years, meaning you are paying thousands of euros for which you get absolutely nothing.
Also in Italy, public elementary schools and public high schools do not lend the students textbooks. The parent have to buy all their children's expensive text books in book stores.

Spain. Besides all our past as conquerors in America (North and South), we allied with Germany in WW2 and we had a "nice little man" who idolized Hitler and his tomb is cemented with the bones of the people they forced to build it.

And provoking civil wars over "no balls to do it, bro".


Even to this day we still yell at each other about who was to blame for the civil war and who did what, even our government does it.... While they spend the money of the European funds and we still have many people without work and half the country depopulated with ghost towns that do not even have drinking water or electricity...

All countries have warts, historical and current. The furere will be what we make it, for better or worse. Each of us has responsibility to work for positive change, even if it is only by our individual actions in everyday life. Not all heroes are celebrities or act at a national level. Grass roots change is the most effective and long lasting. If we want positive change, we all must work for it every day and lead by example. Positive change originates with the people, it cannot be effectively legislated from the top down.

Australia: The Immigration Restriction Act (901-1958) otherwise know as the White Australia Policy (1901-1973-ish). Immigration was restricted from non-white, non-british applicants with a Dictation Test. The way they did it was a European language test of 50 words. No matter how many languages a person spoke, they could pick any other European language as the test. The most famous example was a Jewish man who spoke 4 different languages. They tested him with the lord's prayer... in Scottish Gaelic.

Greece:
Glorious past, disappointing present.

Modern Greeks are nothing like their ancient counterparts they love to brag about. They revel in the glory of an ancient civilization that has nothing to do with today's situation. Today, Greeks are rude and disrespectful, they don't learn from their mistakes, they always blame someone else (accountability? what's that?), the government is very corrupt, and a lot of competent Greeks leave because there's more room to grow in other countries, while in Greece they don't have the same chance for a bright future.

I also left and moved to Canada to be with my partner, I fell in love with the place here! And the more I see how things are different here, the more I see how awful the situation is in Greece. My intention is to never live in Greece again.

Gojira (the 1954 Godzilla) is based on us. Gojira is an allegory for the USA and the unseen side of the Nuclear Bomb. Also, despite being only 50 meters, he weighs 20,000 metric tons, which is A LOT for such a (relatively) small size. This is also probably due to the fact he represents America.

From China. First of all, there is pollution. I think China's the most polluted country. Second of all, the schools. They literally force them to wear the red thing. Third, the kids are educated about politics at a young age and learn to be biased. I think that they should not get educated about politics until like, 16. Fourth, although same-sex relationships are legal, they're not allowed to marry nor adopt. LGBT+ people have to face many legal and social challenges that aren't experienced by cisgender heterosexual residents (especially the Chinese ones, I feel like China hates immigrants). China provides no anti-discrimination protections for LGBT people, nor does it prohibit hate crimes based on sexual orientation and gender identity.
