I realize that these anecdotes hardly say anything about English IMFDB users in general, but it is just a little weird.

It's basically a scaled-up version of general childish dislike of any kind of authority; at a certain age, any authority figure is automatically stupid and terrible, from your older siblings, parents and teachers to the government. Obviously for Americans that's where the buck stops, but for kids from other countries they can mindlessly dislike America because it's a Big Authority Figure Nation (TM).
So basically it's the same reason he doesn't get along with other users, write properly or understand the concept of following rules.
