I mean, they mindlessly worship a system that has made their lives utter hell. They think tax cuts to the rich somehow help them because the republicans told them so. They are obsessed and in love with authoritarians. And so mindlessly worship a fucking flag and goddamned song that some even want murder their fellow citizens for not showing the same mindless reverence. And, this shit starts as soon as you begin school at the age of 5. In all honesty, the US hasn't been raising a nation of people, it's been raising a sleeper army of fanatics, more so that's what Trump America is by now.
Americans are completely brainwashed with loving authority as well. Talk badly about cops or the military, and their face turns red and they start spewing the typical pro-authority propaganda they've been brainwashed their entire lives. It's kind of ironic, the most adamant about their love for authority are the ones who claim to be the most independent. But even the more who seem neutral ones are still way more pro-authority than most of the civilized world due to the brainwashing.
Americans think they live in a democracy, statistically and scientifically proven wrong time and time again. Fed by centuries of propaganda and brainwashing
Americans are deeply brainwashed about the flag and silly songs. They've been told their whole lives this flag and song means FREEDOM and LIBERTY! No matter how much these things have been used to support and enable slavery, terrorism, mass murders, and genocides to run rampant
They've been countered opposing opinions on all of these things, but refuse to think critically about any of them. Pure brainwashing.
The only good thing is that these values and beliefs are incredibly fragile. One turn of the tide and these walls come crashing down. History shows us movements start very slowly then increase with a huge wave of momentum tearing down society in far less than a generation. American brainwashing will be a thing of the past one day.
Americans just have this delusion that their system has to be the best in the world. Social progress has halted completely because they are incapable of admitting any fault.

Where does all this stuff that you’ve heard about this morning – the victim feminism, the gay rights movement, the invented statistics, the rewritten history, the lies, the demands, all the rest of it – where does it come from? For the first time in our history, Americans have to be fearful of what they say, of what they write, and of what they think. They have to be afraid of using the wrong word, a word denounced as offensive or insensitive, or racist, sexist, or homophobic.
We have seen other countries, particularly in this century, where this has been the case. And we have always regarded them with a mixture of pity, and to be truthful, some amusement, because it has struck us as so strange that people would allow a situation to develop where they would be afraid of what words they used. But we now have this situation in this country. We have it primarily on college campuses, but it is spreading throughout the whole society. Were does it come from? What is it?
Leo James
We call it “Political Correctness.” The name originated as something of a joke, literally in a comic strip, and we tend still to think of it as only half-serious. In fact, it’s deadly serious. It is the great disease of our century, the disease that has left tens of millions of people dead in Europe, in Russia, in China, indeed around the world. It is the disease of ideology. PC is not funny. PC is deadly serious.
If we look at it analytically, if we look at it historically, we quickly find out exactly what it is. Political Correctness is cultural Marxism. It is Marxism translated from economic into cultural terms. It is an effort that goes back not to the 1960s and the hippies and the peace movement, but back to World War I. If we compare the basic tenets of Political Correctness with classical Marxism the parallels are very obvious.
First of all, both are totalitarian ideologies. The totalitarian nature of Political Correctness is revealed nowhere more clearly than on college campuses, many of which at this point are small ivy covered North Koreas, where the student or faculty member who dares to cross any of the lines set up by the gender feminist or the homosexual-rights activists, or the local black or Hispanic group, or any of the other sainted “victims” groups that PC revolves around, quickly find themselves in judicial trouble. Within the small legal system of the college, they face formal charges – some star-chamber proceeding – and punishment. That is a little look into the future that Political Correctness intends for the nation as a whole.
Wyatt Cruz
Indeed, all ideologies are totalitarian because the essence of an ideology (I would note that conservatism correctly understood is not an ideology) is to take some philosophy and say on the basis of this philosophy certain things must be true – such as the whole of the history of our culture is the history of the oppression of women. Since reality contradicts that, reality must be forbidden. It must become forbidden to acknowledge the reality of our history. People must be forced to live a lie, and since people are naturally reluctant to live a lie, they naturally use their ears and eyes to look out and say, “Wait a minute. This isn’t true. I can see it isn’t true,” the power of the state must be put behind the demand to live a lie. That is why ideology invariably creates a totalitarian state.
Second, the cultural Marxism of Political Correctness, like economic Marxism, has a single factor explanation of history. Economic Marxism says that all of history is determined by ownership of means of production. Cultural Marxism, or Political Correctness, says that all history is determined by power, by which groups defined in terms of race, sex, etc., have power over which other groups. Nothing else matters. All literature, indeed, is about that. Everything in the past is about that one thing.
Third, just as in classical economic Marxism certain groups, i.e. workers and peasants, are a priori good, and other groups, i.e., the bourgeoisie and capital owners, are evil. In the cultural Marxism of Political Correctness certain groups are good – feminist women, (only feminist women, non-feminist women are deemed not to exist) blacks, Hispanics, homosexuals. These groups are determined to be “victims,” and therefore automatically good regardless of what any of them do. Similarly, white males are determined automatically to be evil, thereby becoming the equivalent of the bourgeoisie in economic Marxism.
Gabriel Anderson
Fourth, both economic and cultural Marxism rely on expropriation. When the classical Marxists, the communists, took over a country like Russia, they expropriated the bourgeoisie, they took away their property. Similarly, when the cultural Marxists take over a university campus, they expropriate through things like quotas for admissions. When a white student with superior qualifications is denied admittance to a college in favor of a black or Hispanic who isn’t as well qualified, the white student is expropriated. And indeed, affirmative action, in our whole society today, is a system of expropriation. White owned companies don’t get a contract because the contract is reserved for a company owned by, say, Hispanics or women. So expropriation is a principle tool for both forms of Marxism.
And finally, both have a method of analysis that automatically gives the answers they want. For the classical Marxist, it’s Marxist economics. For the cultural Marxist, it’s deconstruction. Deconstruction essentially takes any text, removes all meaning from it and re-inserts any meaning desired. So we find, for example, that all of Shakespeare is about the suppression of women, or the Bible is really about race and gender. All of these texts simply become grist for the mill, which proves that “all history is about which groups have power over which other groups.” So the parallels are very evident between the classical Marxism that we’re familiar with in the old Soviet Union and the cultural Marxism that we see today as Political Correctness.
But the parallels are not accidents. The parallels did not come from nothing. The fact of the matter is that Political Correctness has a history, a history that is much longer than many people are aware of outside a small group of academics who have studied this. And the history goes back, as I said, to World War I, as do so many of the pathologies that are today bringing our society, and indeed our culture, down.
Luis Price
Marxist theory said that when the general European war came (as it did come in Europe in 1914), the working class throughout Europe would rise up and overthrow their governments – the bourgeois governments – because the workers had more in common with each other across the national boundaries than they had in common with the bourgeoisie and the ruling class in their own country. Well, 1914 came and it didn’t happen. Throughout Europe, workers rallied to their flag and happily marched off to fight each other. The Kaiser shook hands with the leaders of the Marxist Social Democratic Party in Germany and said there are no parties now, there are only Germans. And this happened in every country in Europe. So something was wrong.
Marxists knew by definition it couldn’t be the theory. In 1917, they finally got a Marxist coup in Russia and it looked like the theory was working, but it stalled again. It didn’t spread and when attempts were made to spread immediately after the war, with the Spartacist uprising in Berlin, with the Bela Kun government in Hungary, with the Munich Soviet, the workers didn’t support them.
So the Marxists’ had a problem. And two Marxist theorists went to work on it: Antonio Gramsci in Italy and Georg Lukacs in Hungary. Gramsci said the workers will never see their true class interests, as defined by Marxism, until they are freed from Western culture, and particularly from the Christian religion – that they are blinded by culture and religion to their true class interests. Lukacs, who was considered the most brilliant Marxist theorist since Marx himself, said in 1919, “Who will save us from Western Civilization?” He also theorized that the great obstacle to the creation of a Marxist paradise was the culture: Western civilization itself.
Eli Taylor
...
Elijah Collins
Lukacs gets a chance to put his ideas into practice, because when the home grown Bolshevik Bela Kun government is established in Hungary in 1919, he becomes deputy commissar for culture, and the first thing he did was introduce sex education into the Hungarian schools. This ensured that the workers would not support the Bela Kun government, because the Hungarian people looked at this aghast, workers as well as everyone else. But he had already made the connection that today many of us are still surprised by, that we would consider the “latest thing.”
In 1923 in Germany, a think-tank is established that takes on the role of translating Marxism from economic into cultural terms, that creates Political Correctness as we know it today, and essentially it has created the basis for it by the end of the 1930s. This comes about because the very wealthy young son of a millionaire German trader by the name of Felix Weil has become a Marxist and has lots of money to spend. He is disturbed by the divisions among the Marxists, so he sponsors something called the First Marxist Work Week, where he brings Lukacs and many of the key German thinkers together for a week, working on the differences of Marxism.
And he says, “What we need is a think-tank.” Washington is full of think tanks and we think of them as very modern. In fact they go back quite a ways. He endows an institute, associated with Frankfurt University, established in 1923, that was originally supposed to be known as the Institute for Marxism. But the people behind it decided at the beginning that it was not to their advantage to be openly identified as Marxist. The last thing Political Correctness wants is for people to figure out it’s a form of Marxism. So instead they decide to name it the Institute for Social Research.
Austin Fisher
Weil is very clear about his goals. In 1971, he wrote to Martin Jay the author of a principle book on the Frankfurt School, as the Institute for Social Research soon becomes known informally, and he said, “I wanted the institute to become known, perhaps famous, due to its contributions to Marxism.” Well, he was successful. The first director of the Institute, Carl Grunberg, an Austrian economist, concluded his opening address, according to Martin Jay, “by clearly stating his personal allegiance to Marxism as a scientific methodology.” Marxism, he said, would be the ruling principle at the Institute, and that never changed. The initial work at the Institute was rather conventional, but in 1930 it acquired a new director named Max Horkheimer, and Horkheimer’s views were very different. He was very much a Marxist renegade. The people who create and form the Frankfurt School are renegade Marxists. They’re still very much Marxist in their thinking, but they’re effectively run out of the party. Moscow looks at what they are doing and says, “Hey, this isn’t us, and we’re not going to bless this.”
Horkheimer’s initial heresy is that he is very interested in Freud, and the key to making the translation of Marxism from economic into cultural terms is essentially that he combined it with Freudism. Again, Martin Jay writes, “If it can be said that in the early years of its history, the Institute concerned itself primarily with an analysis of bourgeois society’s socio-economic sub-structure,” – and I point out that Jay is very sympathetic to the Frankfurt School, I’m not reading from a critic here – “in the years after 1930 its primary interests lay in its cultural superstructure. Indeed the traditional Marxist formula regarding the relationship between the two was brought into question by Critical Theory.”
Camden Carter
The stuff we’ve been hearing about this morning – the radical feminism, the women’s studies departments, the gay studies departments, the black studies departments – all these things are branches of Critical Theory. What the Frankfurt School essentially does is draw on both Marx and Freud in the 1930s to create this theory called Critical Theory. The term is ingenious because you’re tempted to ask, “What is the theory?” The theory is to criticize. The theory is that the way to bring down Western culture and the capitalist order is not to lay down an alternative. They explicitly refuse to do that. They say it can’t be done, that we can’t imagine what a free society would look like (their definition of a free society). As long as we’re living under repression – the repression of a capitalistic economic order which creates (in their theory) the Freudian condition, the conditions that Freud describes in individuals of repression – we can’t even imagine it. What Critical Theory is about is simply criticizing. It calls for the most destructive criticism possible, in every possible way, designed to bring the current order down. And, of course, when we hear from the feminists that the whole of society is just out to get women and so on, that kind of criticism is a derivative of Critical Theory. It is all coming from the 1930s, not the 1960s.
William Baker
Other key members who join up around this time are Theodore Adorno, and, most importantly, Erich Fromm and Herbert Marcuse. Fromm and Marcuse introduce an element which is central to Political Correctness, and that’s the sexual element. And particularly Marcuse, who in his own writings calls for a society of “polymorphous perversity,” that is his definition of the future of the world that they want to create. Marcuse in particular by the 1930s is writing some very extreme stuff on the need for sexual liberation, but this runs through the whole Institute. So do most of the themes we see in Political Correctness, again in the early 30s. In Fromm’s view, masculinity and femininity were not reflections of ‘essential’ sexual differences, as the Romantics had thought. They were derived instead from differences in life functions, which were in part socially determined.” Sex is a construct; sexual differences are a construct.
Another example is the emphasis we now see on environmentalism. “Materialism as far back as Hobbes had led to a manipulative dominating attitude toward nature.” That was Horkhemier writing in 1933 in Materialismus und Moral. “The theme of man’s domination of nature,” according to Jay, ” was to become a central concern of the Frankfurt School in subsequent years.” “Horkheimer’s antagonism to the fetishization of labor, (here’s were they’re obviously departing from Marxist orthodoxy) expressed another dimension of his materialism, the demand for human, sensual happiness.” In one of his most trenchant essays, Egoism and the Movement for Emancipation, written in 1936, Horkeimer “discussed the hostility to personal gratification inherent in bourgeois culture.” And he specifically referred to the Marquis de Sade, favorably, for his “protest…against asceticism in the name of a higher morality.”

Evan Hill
How does all of this stuff flood in here? How does it flood into our universities, and indeed into our lives today? The members of the Frankfurt School are Marxist, they are also, to a man, Jewish. In 1933 the Nazis came to power in Germany, and not surprisingly they shut down the Institute for Social Research. And its members fled. They fled to New York City, and the Institute was reestablished there in 1933 with help from Columbia University. And the members of the Institute, gradually through the 1930s, though many of them remained writing in German, shift their focus from Critical Theory about German society, destructive criticism about every aspect of that society, to Critical Theory directed toward American society. There is another very important transition when the war comes. Some of them go to work for the government, including Herbert Marcuse, who became a key figure in the OSS (the predecessor to the CIA), and some, including Horkheimer and Adorno, move to Hollywood.

These origins of Political Correctness would probably not mean too much to us today except for two subsequent events. The first was the student rebellion in the mid-1960s, which was driven largely by resistance to the draft and the Vietnam War. But the student rebels needed theory of some sort. They couldn’t just get out there and say, “Hell no we won’t go,” they had to have some theoretical explanation behind it. Very few of them were interested in wading through Das Kapital. Classical, economic Marxism is not light, and most of the radicals of the 60s were not deep. Fortunately for them, and unfortunately for our country today, and not just in the university, Herbert Marcuse remained in America when the Frankfurt School relocated back to Frankfurt after the war. And whereas Mr. Adorno in Germany is appalled by the student rebellion when it breaks out there – when the student rebels come into Adorno’s classroom, he calls the police and has them arrested – Herbert Marcuse, who remained here, saw the 60s student rebellion as the great chance. He saw the opportunity to take the work of the Frankfurt School and make it the theory of the New Left in the United States.
Adam Ortiz
One of Marcuse’s books was the key book. It virtually became the bible of the SDS and the student rebels of the 60s. That book was Eros and Civilization. Marcuse argues that under a capitalistic order (he downplays the Marxism very strongly here, it is subtitled, A Philosophical Inquiry into Freud, but the framework is Marxist), repression is the essence of that order and that gives us the person Freud describes – the person with all the hang-ups, the neuroses, because his sexual instincts are repressed. We can envision a future, if we can only destroy this existing oppressive order, in which we liberate eros, we liberate libido, in which we have a world of “polymorphous perversity,” in which you can “do you own thing.” And by the way, in that world there will no longer be work, only play. What a wonderful message for the radicals of the mid-60s! They’re students, they’re baby-boomers, and they’ve grown up never having to worry about anything except eventually having to get a job. And here is a guy writing in a way they can easily follow. He doesn’t require them to read a lot of heavy Marxism and tells them everything they want to hear which is essentially, “Do your own thing,” “If it feels good do it,” and “You never have to go to work.” By the way, Marcuse is also the man who creates the phrase, “Make love, not war.” Coming back to the situation people face on campus, Marcuse defines “liberating tolerance” as intolerance for anything coming from the Right and tolerance for anything coming from the Left. Marcuse joined the Frankfurt School, in 1932 (if I remember right). So, all of this goes back to the 1930s.
Nolan Thompson
In conclusion, America today is in the throes of the greatest and direst transformation in its history. We are becoming an ideological state, a country with an official state ideology enforced by the power of the state. In “hate crimes” we now have people serving jail sentences for political thoughts. And the Congress is now moving to expand that category ever further. Affirmative action is part of it. The terror against anyone who dissents from Political Correctness on campus is part of it. It’s exactly what we have seen happen in Russia, in Germany, in Italy, in China, and now it’s coming here. And we don’t recognize it because we call it Political Correctness and laugh it off. My message today is that it’s not funny, it’s here, it’s growing and it will eventually destroy, as it seeks to destroy, everything that we have ever defined as our freedom and our culture.

The tax cuts are part of a three-pronged move he is making, Trump is using tariffs to stop U.S. companies from relying on foreign slave labor, strong border security to stop the importation of cheap labor and tax cuts to encourage these same businesses to continue investing in the U.S. despite the first two prongs. It is a sort of carrot and stick.

I liked you wall of text, but says nothing about what happened in the US.
The Frankfurt school didn't created political correctness and cultural marxism, revindication schools of thought predate them by a century in america, "all men are created equal" and founding father liberalism, started that trend and by the Gramsci talked a single word about it, american authors have already written several books on feminism.
Syndicalism in the US and in america in general are a response to colonial reality and a way more extensive opposition than european XXth century socialism would ever wish to be, in a sense "conservatism" perfectly understood it's not only an ideology but an european reactionary position to the liberation movements of the XIX century.

youtube.com/watch?v=Ho7PPR93XJk History of the Prussian education system and it being pushed on Americans. 21:15-25:10 explains the Volksschule and three tier class system.
Bell found his opportunity when he studied the structure Hindus arranged for training the lower castes, about 95 percent of the Indian population. It might well serve a Britain which had driven its peasantry into ruin in order to create an industrial proletariat for coal-driven industry.
The entire purpose of Hindu schooling was to preserve the caste system. Only the lucky 5 percent received an education which gave perspective on the whole, a key to understanding. In actual practice, warriors, administrators, and most of the other leaders were given much diluted insight into the driving engines of the culture, so that policy could be kept in the hands of Brahmins. But what of the others, the "masses" as Western socialist tradition would come to call them in an echoing tribute to the Hindu class idea? The answer to that vital question launched factory schooling in the West.
Bell was fascinated by the purposeful nature of Hindu schooling. It seemed eminently compatible with the goals of the English state church.
Ryan Rodriguez
In 1797, Bell, now forty-two, published an account of what he had seen and done. Pulling no punches, he praised Hindu drill as an effective impediment to learning writing and ciphering, an efficient control on reading development. A twenty-year-old Quaker, Joseph Lancaster, read Bell's pamphlet, thought deeply on the method, and concluded, ironically, it would be a cheap way to awaken intellect in the lower classes, ignoring the Anglican's observation (and Hindu experience) that it did just the opposite.
Lancaster began to gather poor children under his father's roof in Borough Road, London, to give them rudimentary instruction without a fee. Word spread and children emerged from every alley, dive, and garret, craving to learn. Soon a thousand children were gathering in the street. The Duke of Bedford heard about Lancaster and provided him with a single enormous schoolroom and a few materials. The monitorial system, as it was called, promised to promote a mental counterpart to the productivity of factories.
Transforming dirty ghetto children into an orderly army attracted many observers. The fact that Lancaster's school ran at tiny cost with only one employee raised interest, too. Invitations arrived to lecture in surrounding towns, where the Quaker expounded on what had now become his system. Lancaster schools multiplied under the direction of young men he personally trained. So talked about did the phenomenon become, it eventually attracted the attention of King George III himself, who commanded an interview with Joseph. Royal patronage followed on the stipulation that every poor child be taught to read the Bible.
Carter Mitchell
By 1818 the Anglican Church, warming to Bell's insight that schooled ignorance was more useful than unschooled stupidity, set up a rival chain of factory schools that proved to be handwriting on the wall for Lancaster. In the face of this competition he fled to America where his fame and his method had already preceded him.
Meanwhile, in England, the whole body of dissenting sects gave Lancaster vociferous public support, thoroughly alarming the state church hierarchy. Prominent church laymen and clergy were not unaware that Lancaster's schools weren't playing by Hindu rules — the prospect of a literate underclass with unseemly ambitions was a window on a future impossible to tolerate. Bell had been recalled from his rectory in Dorset in 1807 to contest Lancaster's use of Hindu schooling. In 181 1, he was named superintendent of an organization to oppose Lancaster's British and Foreign School Society, "The National Society for Promoting the Education of the Poor in the Principles of the Established Church." Since those principles held that the poor were poor because the Lord wanted it that way, the content of the society's schooling leaves little about which we need to speculate. Bell was sent to plant his system in Presbyterian Scotland, while the patronage advantage of Bell-system schools contained and diminished the reach of Lancaster. For his services to the state, Bell was eventually buried in Westminster Abbey.
Sebastian Gonzalez
At first, Lancaster was welcomed warmly in the United States, but his affection for children and his ability to awaken pride and ambition in his charges made him ultimately unacceptable to important patrons who were much more interested in spreading Bell's dumbed-down method, without its Church of England baggage attached. Fortunately for their schemes, Lancaster grew even more shiftless, unmethodical, and incapable of sustained effort (or principled action). In the twenty remaining years of his life, Lancaster ranged from Montreal to Caracas, disowned by Quakers for reasons I've been unable to discover. He once declared it would be possible to teach illiterates to read fluently in twenty to ninety days, which is certainly true. At the age of sixty he was run over by a carriage in New York and died a few hours later.
But while he died an outcast, his system outlived him, or at least a system bearing his name did, albeit more Bell's than Lancaster's. It accustomed an influential public to expect streets to be clear of the offspring of the poor and to expenditures of tax money to accomplish this end. The first Lancaster school was opened in New York City in 1806; by 1 829 the idea had spread to the Mexican state of Texas with stops as far west as Cincinnati, Louisville, and Detroit. The governors of New York and Pennsylvania recommended general adoption to their legislatures.
Anthony Gonzalez
As a Scottish guy who has been stuck here for the last 10 years, yeah that's about the sum of it. I came here thinking it was the USA portrayed in the 80s/90s, got a fucking shock I tell you. I lived in Eastern Europe for 2 years before here and if I had to choose, I'd go back there in a heartbeat.
Surrounded by fuckwits who think they have freedom, (actually, the BEST freedom! tm) yet have every aspect of their lives dictated to them by the elites, live under the heel of the most oppressive and purposely fear-mongering police I've ever seen, (its like something from a 60s UK film about the Gestapo), and the worst living conditions I've seen in any country I've visited. Even Polish housing makes the American efforts look like kids building a fort. Hell, where I am they still seem to think single pane windows are viable, double glazing is for the middle class and triple glazing is probably voodoo.
The most simple tasks like going to Target become a constant freak-show that assaults the mind and senses, nose and eyes especially. Ownership of a house or car is the most incredible list of maintenance problems you have ever seen. Houses are cheap sheds (very very very cheap), but are terrible to live in and need constant upkeep. Still, with the non-existent sound-proofing/insulation you can keep tabs on your neighbors coming and goings as you can hear them drive up and down their gravel driveway.
The most brainwashed population I have ever seen. They live in squalor (take a drive south from Virginia down to Georgia, I was nearly in tears the first time I saw how 'real' Americans lived), and barely have the capabilities to look after themselves.

Charlotte Thompson Iserbyt served as the head of policy at the Department of Education during the first administration of Ronald Reagan. While working there she discovered a long term strategic plan by the tax exempt foundations to transform America from a nation of rugged individualists and problem solvers to a country of servile, brainwashed minions who simply regurgitate whatever they're told. Part one of our exclusive interview with Iserbyt breaks down how conditioning/training under a corporate agenda has replaced traditional education, leading to a deliberate dumbing down of Americans. Iserbyt further explains how Reagan signed agreements merging the U.S. and Soviet systems under the United Nations banner, turning over education and many other areas of public policy to global control.

Part of the Trump tax plan removed the tax write-off for CEO cash bonuses so now companies are giving more stock. Stuff like that seems more effective
Juan Bailey
That for sure, all you had to do to be sane wealthy man in america was not being born there.
You can take advantage of the wellfare system, the charity system, the legal system and so on, as americans are brainwashed into given everything to people they don't understand.

We also have 10 times as many people and a larger percentage not working. India and China don't have great healthcare despite being universal.
Dylan Gray
America is a really funny country. It has no culture, no sense of ethnicity, no morals, no philosophy, no art, and yet it still is one of the most nationalist countries in the world.
Jayden Kelly
I went to Russia excited as fuck to see propaganda and brainwashing and shit, didn't see a goddamn thing the entire time I was there. They are probably the most red-pilled people I ever met.
Came to America thinking it was 'free', and got assualted immediately upon landing by the most obvious and obnoxious flag-waving elite-worshipping jingoism that a country could offer. Turn on the TV and drink every time you see the American flag.
And while they don't really care that they have no freedom, (or even prospects 99% of the time), they will bite, claw and spit at anyone who dares point out they are a long way from No1. At this point American patriotism is who can shout I CANT HEAR YOU the loudest at anyone who trys to rescue freedom.
They have created a cage for themselves with flags for bars and no door, and in it they sit and daydream about conspiracy theories, niggers and jews.
Patriotism became the weapon that worked against America as far as I can see.
David Barnes
I think egoism is completely ingrained to their culture. That’s why they have an insane level of hubris and no empathy towards their fellow people.
Jason Rivera
>no culture >culture of hubris Which is it? Big talk either way for someone who has likely never been here or outside a large city if they have.
Leo Phillips
You understand the differences between high and low culture?

Stalin could never figure out why our propaganda system was so much better than everyone else's. I think it's due to the K- 12 conditioning that the media propaganda works so well.
Carson James

Americans are absolutely propagandised by their media.
It doesnt help that most of them know literally nothing about the world outside America.
David Martin
>Which is it? Big talk either way for someone who has likely never been here or outside a large city if they have.
why would i need to go to America?
there is nothing to be discovered, i already know more about the country than most Americans.

Oh we know some things such as leftism has destroyed Europe. You can blame the US or the jews or anyone else you want but frankly the US is looking far better than most of Europe these days, much less these Latin American shitholes. By the way do you have any specific criticisms of america or are you just away from your amerimutt folder at the moment and this is the only way you can lash out?
Mason Lopez
>healthcare meme I don’t want to pay more taxes to support shitskins. Not everyone is worth saving. Why do i have to subsidize your bad life choices? I’ll pay my own way; you can, too, or you can die.
Blake Taylor
I think it works so well because it's self-sustaining. You have the country clones like Toby Keith preaching things like 'courtesy of the red, white and blue' on the radio, houses flying 3 flags in their yard, and Joe Bloggs at his local football game screaming USA USA USA! We're No1! unironically. None of these people were paid by the state to manufacture bullshit, they did it of their own 'free' will.
American propaganda isn't state run or sponsored, its a self-sustaining beast that is policed and born of the very people it enslaves. The older generation simply try to outdo each other with it, the younger generation act as the enforcers, ready to attack anyone who steps away from the party line and say something unamerican. (Like real freedom, healthcare, or living quality).

It's America that's the source of the world's problems and has been for about the last 100 years.
Charles Lewis
Long OP short, Yes, Americans are the most exposed people to scientifically calibrated image-for-effect (meme). But if you know the history of propaganda and stay aware of it you'll also already know that the U.K. is just as badly effected. I don't speak (or observe) European propaganda because I don't speak fruity languages, but I wonder about such places as Sweden. I know for a fact that Germany is really bad, absolute USSR tier, from the crazy attitudes that Germ posters pick up from their media. This is why we don't get traditional Argentine helicopter 'lessons' in our countries, m8, they reach out with a clawed hand and take undefended minds to use against us here. It's safer and more successful fir (((them))) that way.
William Brooks
>houses flying 3 flags in their yard,
there's obviously a problem if people are flying their country's flag in their yard.
why the fuck would you need to do that, are they confused about what country they live in and need a reminder?
Jayden Carter
Country music is a kind of Red Army Choir for the white wageslaves of America. It's all promoted by Summer Redstone who frames minority culture in a more powerful and appealing light.
K- 12 and the state promoted social structures of America teach the population to police each other. A total crab basket mentality paralyzed upstarts and preserves the status quo for the oligarchy.
Thomas Gray
And? If you think america has turned the green and pleasant land into a mudslime shithole then talk about that but dont make wild claims about American living standards. Your problem, like almost everyone else itt, is what America has done to you. Don't pretend you care about the American people being blinded by propaganda.
Gavin Jackson

what wild claims did i make? i mentioned six lane highways and walmarts, that's all.

By agreeing with OPs assertions you agree to his longwinded bullshit. Also the presence of roads and stores usually isn't a sigh of utter hell.

tl;dr
But yes we are brainwashed. Probably not “the worst.” That can easily go to some of the more outlandish societies in history. Wanna move to NK, live in abject poverty, and worship your supreme leader as a god anyone?
It is worse over here than you think though. The issue isn’t that we foolishly hold onto beliefs that are fairly obviously incorrect; everyone has this issue throughout their lives (including every society since it is made up of individuals with this flaw). The issue is that we’ve dramatized and commercialized our political landscape and can no longer have a real conversation regarding our nations objectives, current trajectory, or the best meathods of achieving our desired outcome. Honestly, every conversation has devolved into sophist rhetoric of the most base “ah, gotcha” kind. We are doomed. I only hope that the countries watching will see the light from our bonfire for what it is. A man who has set himself aflame in intentional ignorance for the sheer entertainment of it.
The sad thing is that you cannot find anyone on either side of the aisle that is genuinely happy with it. Some think they are “winning” and some think they are “losing”, but we only win or lose this together. We are definitely losing this together at the moment.
Michael Ortiz
>By agreeing with OPs assertions you agree to his longwinded bullshit. Also the presence of roads and stores usually isn't a sigh of utter hell.
Im not saying its utter hell, but America's landscape is soul destroying.
it's one more reason why the people are zombies.
Jaxson Torres
>they mindlessly worship a system that has made their lives utter hell
The Boomers grew up in this all-white ethnostate, and they're basically still living in their Boomer world and Boomer reality. They are worshiping that which, at one time, really, really worked, before the seeds of our decline were sown with the welfare system, mass immigration, money printing, and running up the national credit card. They were too selfish, decadent and comfortable to protect what they inherited and secure it for their children.
>They think tax cuts to the rich somehow help them
An old, stupid shitlib talking point. Reagan cut taxes across the board, and it provided for decades of growth and prosperity. Trump also got taxes across the board. And people actually spend that money into the real economy rather than it being pissed away with government. Argentina could be a first world country, but you Latin American cunts are all just full bore socialists, and are in a perpetual state of crabs in the bucket syndrome. As for tax revenue, it went up in the eighties, and it went up after the Bush tax cuts as well, meaning the economic growth offset the lower rates by providing a larger "pie" from which pieces can be cut. The establishment attacks conservative economics and supply side with straw men like "muh trickle down" and "tax cuts for the rich" because they have no substance. They need the buzzwords, talking points, and appeals to emotion because science and history isn't in their favor.
>Talk badly about cops or the military
Try living with niggers and you'll start to grow much greater affection for local law enforcement.
>Americans are deeply brainwashed about the flag and silly songs.
"Yes goyim, nationalism and patriotism are bad. You all need to be cynical, brainwashed sleep for the slaughter, sans any identity or pride in your people and history. We all need to be good world citizens, right?"
Nathaniel Anderson
>They are worshiping that which, at one time, really, really worked, before the seeds of our decline were sown with the welfare system, mass immigration, money printing, and running up the national credit card.
The seeds of your decline were sown when countries like Japan and Germany recovered from the war.

As opposed to butter knife binning bongistan where if you're lucky enough to avoid an acid attack you may one day find a mediocre slag for the night before returning to a comically generic office job and preying it too isn't outsourced to pakis or made obsolete by technology?
Jackson Phillips
We were doing just fine in the 80s and 90s too, so this notion that there was a "false prosperity" following WWII is false. The economies of Japan and West Germany were already rocking by the 60s, with some of the highest growth rates in the world. But as we can see, all of that money had a dark side, in that the Boomers normalized the "swingers lifestyle," divorce, step-dads and step-moms and the like. They were all about their trip, their ride, and hadn't a fraction of the patriotism, identity, desire for civic engagement. They are the "we got ours now go get fucked" generation. Honestly, the word "Boomer" should trigger the average right winger who knows history and politics more than "Jew." Our Boomer parents are refinancing their house with government-sponsored programs for the eighth time for more vacations, cruises, all while our local public schools are building portables to educate all the Mexican anchor babies. No civic engagement, no patriotism, total conformatist turbo normies, for the Boomers it was all about their "ride."
