We are the most-just nation ever to grace the surface of the earth. That we are the MOST-EXCEPTIONAL goes without saying, and those who say otherwise are "traitors" to freedom.
But people also poured out of Germany, Britain, Ireland, Holland, Spain etc etc etc to come to the us in the past too largely for economic reasons, not political. So sure some run away from political persecution, but most to seek better economic opportunities which the us has. But this doesn’t make the us an exceptional country politically. It just makes it a land of opportunity because it has a huge landmass and plenty of spaces to grow.
In the first place the OP didn't qualify it politically.
You are and that's making up your own rules if anything to try and make a point !!!
There is plenty more that makes us political exceptional whether you admit it or not !!!
What other country has our constitution ? No one !!! That's just a starting point !!! You can hate the constitution for any reason or excuse wanted but it won't change the fact it is exceptional !!! It also leads to exceptional outcomes even among other like countries called democracies !!!
The UK and other EU countries for example don't have the same right of freedom of speech that the US offers !!!

This reads like blatant propaganda from the USSR; congrats comrade.

The bolded part indicates you know little about what it means to be American.
Saying those that say otherwise or critical of our country are "traitors" is more akin to USSR and North Korean. People fought and died specifically so that we can be critical of our country.
The day that we treat people exercising their 1st amendment rights like traitors because we don't like what they have to say is the day USA dies.

"Everyone has the right to freedom of expression. This right shall include freedom to hold opinions and to receive and impart information and ideas without interference by public authority and regardless of frontiers. This Article shall not prevent States from requiring the licensing of broadcasting, television or cinema enterprises."
I will agree that it wasn't part of the inception of their constitutional equivalent... but that's besides the point. They saw something to improve and they did it. We should also do the same... be critical of ourselves and seek improvement.

What you say determines what you are (traitor to freedom or friend of freedom).
There is a world of difference between being critical of our country, and condemning her (as you are your ilk do). I don't think anyone would put their lives on the line so you could condemn the country. I certainly wouldn't raise a finger for you and your ilk.
You may dismount your high-horse now.
