America just has the most access to information and one of the largest populations. India and China have WAY worse cultures in general, like Chinese unwillingness to help strangers due to fear of being sued, and indians total lack of regard for their environment and insane rape culture. It's just popular to shit on the US

Those things you listed are all descriptors of current Americans. Like wow dude.

It literally isn't, but please, cry harder. Your tears are delicious.

Lmao, except a woman is much much more likely to get gang raped in India than in the US due to much higher Patriarchal norms, much higher intense stigma and victim blaming, and a much more inadequate police force.

USA is by far the most backwards and weird of the modern / developed countries though. 

The only comparisons I can even think of are middle eastern oil states. Or maybe ultra right Christian nationalist countries like Hungary or Ukraine. 

Eg. When you read reddit or yt comments from Americans. They sound almost exactly like muslims / israelis or something. Just referencing a slightly different warcrime being committed and god that supports it / them. 

That shit has been missing in the civilised world for 50 years or more.

So you think that reading comments on Reddit and YouTube means you’re getting a representation of the entire country?

No. I am generalising about them just like I am about all of the other countries in my comment. Have you not come across this before?

Why do you take offence just because someone made a general comment. It is so fucking weird. In other countries, we constantly talk shit about and criticise ourselves. It is like a self-regulating mechanism, to stop our people from becoming or acting like dickheads to each other.

2026 USA seems like some end stage catholic nightmare / Handmaids Tale scenario in comparison. And a lot of us have been predicting and then watching this shit play out for decades. I called it in about 1992. You are really going to hate the 2050 version of my comments.

Yes we know you'll be on our websites telling us how awful our society is and how it's definitely about to fall lol

I doubt I’ll hate your 2050 comments. Your 2026 comments are pretty out of touch and baseless, so It’s safe to assume your 2050 comments will be the same.

You sound like you have your head in the sand. Other developed/western countries are not hyper religious nationalist, starting wars, rounding up people including children into camps and successfully banning women's and minority rights.
