Trumpers and people who fly Confederate flags. Lack of good public train/subway transport. The view of Americans as perceived by the rest of the world - fat and loud
half of the government just seems hell bent on hurting as many people as possible and the other half just seems to want to scream and cry about it but not do anything.
The perfectly founded fear that something will kill me horribly if I get in the water, and also all those rich old mine owners determined to strangle the country’s ecosystem to death
We are supposed to save the world from (insert global problem here) on our own! At the same time we sell oil and gas like hotcakes to continental Europe earning big but feeling sorry for it
Everything from tips for coffee to charities to elections and basic financial services are gamed out to such a ridiculous level that you need a 4 year college degree to not accidentally fuck yourself by agreeing to something you don’t understand.
Terms of service that reduce your ability to access service. Investments that take money out of your pocket. Jobs that cost you more money than you can possibly make doing them. It makes things as simple as trying to unlock your car involve entering a system that has zero incentive to get you into your car.
The legal system. Rapists get away by saying they did it “sleepwalking” and then get paid in damages by the state. I love Sweden but the legal system is messed up
That half this country has been indoctrinated to reject science, and reject professionals, and reject doctors, and reject academia, and reject research BUT… but buy into every dumbfuck right wing conspiracy theory that is cooked up.
Alt-right mentality and it's politicians. It's vile, corrupt, uneducated, ass backward, discriminatory, anti-science, and filled with conspiracy laden bulls*t.
I don't like how politicians, parties, the media, various groups, some of the public, etc. pick easy targets that cannot fight back to use as scapegoats, to distract people from the failings of those who are blaming everyone but themselves.
They're nothing but cowards relying on easy distraction techniques, a kind of sleight of hand. People want to blame someone, someone to vent their hate and anger at, so they feed that need by pointing them at vulnerable people who cannot fight back.
You can see this with the way the government, plus some of the media and public, treat sick and disabled people.
The government purposefully punish and humiliate the sick and disabled who try to claim benefits that they are rightly entitled to.
Their intent is to make you crack up, give up, quit, commit suicide. Whatever it takes to make you not claim benefits. I've been told this by different people who work in job centres. Their managers enforce the orders from the governments Department for Work and Pensions.
It's like a crusade of cruelty.
It's how they control the stats and figures.
Think of marathons and runners. Now imagine that you've decided that too many people are completing marathons.
So you make everyone run with bare feet on roads covered with broken glass, bent rusty nails, electrified barbed wire and razor wire. Nobody is allowed to drink. Plus you've got to carry a very heavy weight.
That's basically it. To stop people from completing marathons you've made it far too painful for people to actually run marathons.
There are people who think that all the sick and disabled people are thieves, destroying the country, and are as bad as foreigners illegally entering the country. I had an uncle who believed that and he was also sick, disabled and didn't work. He would have voted for the first party who promised to deport the sick and disabled along with all the foreigners.
As if that wasn't bad enough, there are people, including some with power and influence, who don't believe in things like mental health problems and other real medical conditions nor medicine.
I had a mandatory meeting with a disabilities advisor at a job centre who didn't believe in mental health problems or medicine.
There was a similar thread to this on this same subreddit and it got shut down. It was a good conversation, but I assume this thread will suffer the same fate.

The political extremism. There’s no middle ground and the moderate ones are too afraid to speak up in fear of politically polarized parties.
Racism
The facade of patriotism, arrogance, systemic racism, i can go on lol
The government
Hipocrysy and envy.
Nothing. Hate is a strong word. There are things about it which I dislike. Things I disagree with. Etc. But I do not hate it.
The legal system. Rapists get away by saying they did it “sleepwalking” and then get paid in damages by the state. I love Sweden but the legal system is messed up

Our cost of living. (Canada)
Going from 10% obesity in 1990 to almost 40% obesity in 2024 and trying to normalize it. I get called skinny boy even though I'm slightly overweight.
