I’ve had some amazing experiences there, but I’m talking about the US masses, not the intelligent and worldly individuals
The average yank is a fucking idiot
Bright people are always going to be bright. The value of an education system is to help the vast majority of people who are just average
The US “education” system fails everyone, but those who have natural gifts are able to get somewhere
Don’t even get me started on the idea that unless something has a dollar figure attached, it is of no value
The superficial consumerism is bizarre and grotesque, particularly when there’s so much wealth concentrated in one country, yet people die from treatable diseases and starve in the streets.
