While being intelligent is better than being stupid, its not a guarantee of much. To be an American is to be played like a fiddle by a dozen interests and invisible hands every minute of every day. Its all a big show designed to keep you busy arguing about things which arent the real problems so you cant address the real issues.
Absolutely, I lived in the States for nearly a decade. The corporate influence is insidious. Living becomes a washed-out initiation of “real” life.
Acknowledging that, making and communicating criticism on the content of any writing based solely on its title is ridiculous and isn’t a particularly American problem. Doubling down and defending having done so is a special level of idiocy.
