re: US wokeness v rest of the world

Exactly.

Cultural Marxism originated with the Frankfurt school.
We're a few generations in now. Did NOT originate in America. It's antithetical to Americanism.

Imagine going on an international trip and trying to start shite based on a domestic matter.

In fairness I didn't completely clarify I'm talking about the present so you're not an idiot, I just assumed you would realize I'm not saying our ideas are the worst in world history via the phrase "and it's not really close at the moment."

There are probably obscure, worse ideas coming from random places even now, but I don't think anyone is exporting bad ideas as successfully as we are. And the bad ideas we're promoting are really bad.

Most know the name cultural Marxism but they don't give a thought to where that came from. It's all the leftists of America's fault.

When Costa Rica represents “rest of world”, narrow perspective may be greater risk than wokeness.

People in this country think other people give a frick or should give a frick about their views and everyone thinks their views are the right views. And even worse, most people have no fricking clue what they are talking about.

You want to know what most Americans think? Watch CNN and Fox news. Whatever bullshite they are throwing out there, there is a good chance that if you come across a random person and ask their political views, they will say shite that sounds like the same shite you will hear on one of the above networks I mentioned. Because they either get their bullshite by watching or listening to a moron who watches.

Most people might take 2 or 3 issues really serious, their views on everything else is dictated by political party or peers.


But I have to point out.

was in Costa Rica for a week, all last week, and it was great. There was zero wokeness. No political BS

You knew what you were doing. If you wanted to give a trip review, we have a Travel Board for that.

That's the biggest bunch of bullshite.

When it comes to our cultural influence it's not. The Kardashian rot has spread globally, along with the rest of our garbage that has passed as pop culture for the last 20+ years.

Every American should be required to spend some time in Haiti, Somalia, Zimbabwe, or some other third world shithole for a while. Experience some real world shite for a while.

I agree.

My world perspective changed when I went to a small town in Honduras named Olinchito (sp?) Over 2 separate summers when I was younger.

Once I saw how people lived there, I realized how lucky we were here. It wasn't just there, there's many places as you mentiones, that was just the first place I traveled to that was extremely poor.

They don't even have to go that far. Go to any inner city in the South and look at the conditions there. The reasons people are in those situations can be debated, but the conditions they live in can't. And when you live in rough conditions, you dgaf about woke culture. You just want to survive.

You misunderstood my entire post and made it something it isn’t in your own warped mind bc you got offended. Now THAT is hilarious.
