America should fracture itself in to smaller countries. Start up some rivalries with each other. People will feel less inclined to hate Statesians if they're not collectively unified under a continent-spanning, multi-trillion dollar superpower with a massive population and a raging hard-on for global meddling.
More little guys and underdogs, is what I'm saying. Everybody loves them.

Why do people hate Britain so much then?

Everyone's jealous because we've only had one civil war in our history, and not the world average (skewed by South American and African countries) of three.
But seriously, I don't think most self-identified anti-Americans actually hate American people, at least not in Europe where it's best-documented. They might have bigoted ideas of Americans, some of which may be partially well-founded, but "people who hate the American government" is a much larger set than "people who hate everything American"
People just have nothing better to do then prejudge others. It goes for people in and outside of the US. It is just that kind of world we live in now a days. In all honesty though, if you hate someone or a whole country without even MEETING or speaking with them; Well then you are just a childish *******.
