@DonMiami3@MacroEdgeRes @MacroEdgeVision it’s impossible to look at normal career growth pipelines and not think “yeah, I’ll take my chances trying to be an influencer”
Something that's interesting to me is that Americans hold this belief because that's the narrative their country feed them.
The American culture of patriotism leads them to a belief in American exceptionalism. They are told that America is leading the world in freedom, democracy, and opportunity. The US curriculum seems to be incredibly US centric when it comes to geography, history, culture, and politics. I would surmise a lot of the media they consume is primarily US produced as well.
I think, historically there was an 'American Dream' aspiration. However, I'd say that started to diminish around 50 years ago, and in western and European countries, has lost value.
I also think that social media has illuminated the systemic issues within the US to the rest of the world, which means that, while children and teens are still exposed to US media, because they can see the realities, they aren't drawn-in by it in the same way millennials and older generations were.
There is so much data available that shows that America is falling behind in all the areas they claim to be leading in.
The only source that justifies their high regard of their country, is what has been systemically and deliberately fed to them from their own country. They've been indoctrinated into their excessive, blind patriotism and people like the OP are blind to it.
I guess, in simple terms, my thought is: If the only evidence you have that your country is great comes from your country telling you its great, is that not a red flag?
Women wised up to the fact that majority of men want kids in a way a child wants a puppy knowing full well the mom is going to pick up after it and do most of the labor required. Men don’t train to be loving empathetic and present fathers the way women are expected to be mothers.

"And so, the woman dies. The woman dies so the man can be sad about it, so he can suffer.She dies to give him a destiny. Dies so he can fall to the dark side. Dies so he can lament her death. As he stands there, brimming with grief, brimming with life, she lies there,in silence."
