This is true of anyone/group who holds power. Including the Federal Gov't.


In general, my impression of the extreme dislike of the U.N. effectively comes down to two things:

1- It's a simple meme.
2- The people that feel this way (who are not simply repeating the meme) have a desire to see the U.S. rule the world. The U.N. is a fundamental block to that goal because the U.N. is based on democratic principles, which obviously conflict with a dictatorial U.S. rule of the world.
