The general opinion of my Brit friends would be: That's it's big, exciting, thoroughly right wing, very shallow socially, has an absolutely hosed up idea about what Christianity is, an overly fascist police system, and that people will work themselves to death and somehow think this is how things should be. Also the healthcare system is legit evil, and so is socialised healthcare not existing.

They also think Hershey's bars are redolant of vomit, that Trump is a dangerous, self serving lunatic, that American beer tastes like piss and that Americans are legit dumb for thinking we drink it warm.

They also think there is something wonderful about the place, too.

I can't really stress enough how much of a negative impression the whole healthcare thing gives people though. We're being thoroughly hosed in that regard here too, right now.

I love America, a ton, and had an absolute blast there. The people there were way more polite then here (UK), happier, /much/ less repressed socially, and people just seem more individual. They didn't seem shallow to me. Also tons of v8's. I want to go back.

Holy gently caress you guys make lovely Tea.

I'm glad it's hilarious to you, really.

Police brutality and threats of violence for arbitrary things are super sensationalised.

I don't really have an opinion, but I was scared of police in DC when we were stopped in traffic, and one cop kept his hand on his gun holster while I found ID, and that's a first.
