Is it good to hate amerikka? Or is it better to be involved with the country and press for a reform. A discussion.


Reasons to hate USA:

The "culture"

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UkRoCE8J0Mc

American culture is largely based off of consumption. American identity is determined by what entertainment you consume. Americans work for the ability to purchase expensive food. Most identity is determined by how you consume your food and what you watch while you consume. The consumption continues for the 12 waking hours.

Rather than being a hedonistic utopia, the costs of america's lifestyle are simply placed on non-americans.

America produces a lot of media, but it is just all designed to trigger more brain drugs to make people BUY BUY BUY, hence you get nostalgia quests like stranger things and superhero movies.

The Military

Americans must pay respect to the army 2 times a day otherwise the terrorists win. Even the left in the US supports giving troops rewards for their baby killing.

The Police

American police kill people. It's bad.

White Americans

They are racist and at the same time lack basic communities.

Religion

America is filled with taliban like religious extremists.

Its 'proud history'

America was founded for slave-owning libertarians so that they could take more land from indigenous people. Since then the USA has embarked on campaigns of colonial conquest, genocide, carpet bombing, and campaigns of butchery. These are all celebrated. America has no ideological development, all of its conflicts emerged out of price changes in cotton. It has never had a popular revolution.


living in america will literally drive you insane

At the same time, America has a very high standard of living for most of its citizens and has good higher education in about 10-15 institutions, what can we do?

Кто виноват и что делеть?

Who is guilty?

The protestant mentality? Germans? Anglos? Why does America suck?

What is to be done? Reform or revolution?

I appreciate the fact that America tries to be a cultural borg when it comes to cuisine. That's one thing you guys definitely get it right.

homogeneity is important for global mass production, especially with chains (hotels, restaurants) that occupy space and only serve to print money for the select few people who own the supply and demand~

can't be undone, only ravaged and consumed or just outright burned down
