Despite the challenges with current government, the USA is still the best country in the world for most things. Some will disagree but they are in a minority. People who have never been or lived in the USA likely won't understand why this is. I stopped bothering to explain it to others a long time ago as their views are mostly influenced by biased media in their home country.

Mirror, mirror on the wall...

(As you've already concluded, don't bother...)


Your parent comment is probably satire, but given current situations, one can never be sure.


No satire intended. It's more a simple reflection on reality.


As a US citizen with plenty of travel experience, there are actually scant few things the USA is best at, especially when it comes to quality of life for ordinary people.

US residents who rarely leave their borders likely won't understand why this is.


Replying as this is not satire, it is 100% true. Social media amplifies this, news regurgitates it and we fight online while advertisers get their clicks.
