Chill out

Listen, not everyone likes the same thing, this is ok! People should do like you did and try another place if they don't like where they grew up! This is not a crazy idea! There would be no immigration to the USA or anywhere if everyone listened to people saying "don't do it, everywhere has problems".

I wasn't saying anyone that likes the US is stupid, and fwiw I'm actually a fat, stupid white Texan (I still vote in the elections there).

Final nitpick, people REALLY do say all the time "the grass is always greener on the other side" when you try to move jobs or move states or cities, and it is something I just don't experience at all where I live today, and I really don't miss this particular very american perspective.
