Millions of Americans, including those among the lowest income brackets, truly have no idea how good life is for them. The grass is always greener somewhere else in the world until people actually take the plunge and move to the neighbor’s house only to discover it’s a crack den.
The self hatred that progressives feel over being American and living in the US is a first-world luxury that few others can afford. Most of humanity doesn’t have time to dwell obsessively on their nation’s global image; they are too busy barely surviving. The argument often regurgitated by over-privileged activists on Reddit forums and in college classrooms is that American “exceptionalism” is problematic because there’s nothing exceptional about America.
This claim is debunked by the fact that most of the rest of the world wants to come to the US and very few people want to leave. Those that do leave are usually among the wealthiest, or, they are gullible and think they can find something better overseas. It usually doesn’t go well for them.
One black leftist recently figured this out after moving to Africa. She assumed she would fit right in, but now says she actually prefers dealing with American “racism” over the scammers, grifters and of course, the lack of snacks. Her complaints have gone viral because they expose the common leftist delusion that the US is somehow one of the worst places on Earth. They simply don’t understand how lucky they are until they step outside of their echo chamber.
