Haha we've "always" been hated by the majority? That's a relatively recent development. Everyone used to love the US, especially the common people in other countries who looked to our revolution as an example of the assertion of natural rights and individual liberty. Our revolution inspired the French revolution, who then became our allies.
And why do you think so many immigrants came to the US? They saw it as the land of opportunity. Irish people, as an example, who had their lands stolen by the British and who were suffering from starvation in the potato famine came to the US looking for a better life and jobs where they could make enough money to live at least a decent life.
