(3,389 posts)When you read USA history you find out that the USA has always been a racist country, with a population of greedy people where the mighty dollar rules, where power has a false value, where those in front of the cameras become idolized by stupid ignorant people (the Kardashian anyone?).
What the USA has been great at is marketing to its citizens and the World that this is the greatest country on earth, not only now but that it has always been the greatest country, reason why trump was so successful on selling his "MAGA" crap and never explaining when "America was so great that we would be willing to go back to it."
I read history, I read biographies and they tell the truth about us, we are what we have always been, the difference today is that technology allows us to see, almost immediately, what we are and have always been. Many think politicians were sincere, honest etc., in the past because we could not see what they were doing, a lot of that corruption became buried and we never learned about it unless we take the time to read history and find good books that will tell it honestly.
So no, what you see is what we have always been, don't fool yourself believing otherwise, lets instead educate our children the right way to try to change the future to become better people.
