@tinfoiling The US feels so barbaric right now, with our loose gun laws, mass shootings, a terrible health care system, unbalanced wealth distribution, curtailed abortion access, racism, uneven educational system, heavy reliance on unsustainable energy sources, increasing anti-vaccine sentiments and an outdated constitution & political system. At least we have excellent universities, majorities of decent people, creative pop culture & music, hardworking scientists & entrepreneurs & resisters.
