The blind, ignorant cheerleading about "The Greatest Country in the World" might
be worthy of laughter -- perhaps even sympathy -- if it weren't such an effective,
willfully swallowed sedative used in the dumbing down of our populace and the
obstruction of real, enlightened change and growth in our society.

2. The concept of exceptionalism is easily bought
when the powers that be have built a consumer driven society. Why no one is willing to let that cat out of the bag is a mystery, it's not like a secret anymore. We are members of a planetary public under pressure to prove we are not a Pavlovian people.

I proudly recommended this thread.

4. Thanks. I've been reading Howard Zinn's "History of the United States"...

...and he makes abundantly clear that this has been going on since
they started to "create" the USA.
