“We do not want to be rich like Americans. Look how greedy they are, even trying to invade their friends. We would not sell ourselves. We know what happened to Indigenous people in Alaska and Native Americans. Their land was taken, and they were not treated well.”

When someone says they would rather stay themselves than become “rich like Americans,” they are basically saying the brand is broken, and the history is part of the reason.
