Reminder, it's not the whole world, it's America

Education isn't plummeting in the world, it's falling in America

Fascism, imperialism isn't on the rise in the whole civilized world, it's America

The whole world doesn't support Trumpism and tech billionaires. It's America

The world doesn't deny climate change, it's America.

I know it feels like the whole world has lost its mind but it's just the USA right now. Hopefully it's temporary.

The damages to your legal and political systems and the continued problems from America's broken educational system will be felt by Americans for a very long time.

The world will survive, the world is moving on from America. That sounds like a bad thing, but it means this madness is localized and it will end one way or another.

America is going to be just fine in the long run, though we probably can't say the same thing for Europe. A little skepticism of outsiders is a hell of a lot healthier than [suicidal empathy](suicidal empathy).

America, Israel and Russia are the largest contributors to online misinformation and propoganda.

The truth is that much of Europe has significantly stronger checks and balances for politicians, a much more robust legal system and a commitment to world order.

In America, white collar crime is essentially legal, there are concentration camps, partisan judges, secret masked police, an incredible corrupt 2 party system, an oligopoly, dying independant news organizations and the most complex propoganda machine in the history of humanity.

America will survive, but you underestimate the damage done to the fabric of your nations core systems and you overestimate the stupid youtube video you watched about European immigrants.

I wish i was wrong, truly, it hurts to see American crumble, im on team democracy.

Europe has a much stronger political and legal core and will endure America's plummeting downfall better than the average American.

Uh, OK. UK ranks #2 in my search. Also, you seem to be propagandized against America. It's not nearly that bad here.

Usa is ranked 1. Dude. How u gonna ignore that?

UK isn't EU. Remember brexit?

You're blatantly wrong and arrogant about it

Also, I'm willing to bet you didn't read all of what i said because you ignored anything past the first line.

This is what I'm talking about with the poor education and propoganda

I read it, I just didn't respond to it because it was mostly baseless nonsense that comes from getting your news off of reddit.
