Sweeping generalizations.

Hate? I think some Americans embrace these stereotypes and glory in them.

I think some people thought that the "Bundys" (Married with Children) and Peter Griffin (Family Guy) were role models.

As a member of several less-than-stellar demographic groups, all I can say is that I'm not responsible for other people's behavior.

That's not a stereotype. That's the archetype.

Sadly you describe many of my country's citizens, but not all, making the statements claiming every point is true of all Americans is like saying all Asians are good at math, or all black men are well hung (see not all stereotypes are negative even if hard to live up to.)
I'm not particularly proud of my American family but god damn it they are my family.
Where's the sympathy for people like me?
Being the person that's constantly right, and honest enough to say without hesitation that I don't know sometimes feels like a tremendous burden. People look me up to prove me wrong like gun fighters in the ancient west trying to prove who's the fastest draw in the west.
Honestly it's tiring, but at least I've never lost.

You honor and ennoble yourself, entitling yourself to humble self-respect. Few people attain your level of self-awareness, and you should see yourself as fortunate to have evaded their corruption.

Well IF (repeat IF) all Americans hate those stereotypes we can add a tenth

Americans are completely without self awareness.
