The fact that someone can have a singular opinion about American society, a nation as large, diverse, and populous as all of Europe, suggests that the person does not have a good grasp of what really is America. To have a single opinion about American culture, American women, and American way of life as if California, Mississippi, New York, and Montana are anything alike makes as much a sense as having the same views of Spain, Germany, and Romania.

This observation applies not only to the replied poster's opinion but also to people making blanket statements regarding black and brown people in the US and other troll comments about American society.

Heck even if you just look at Texas, anybody who was in Austin knows how different it is from the rest of Texas.

The problem with the US is basically that too many people are only concerned with making money and as a result do not partake in other activities such as having sex. This basically leads to a very frustrated populace resulting in a very negative society with many people seeking to make others as miserable as themselves. Where the upper echelons of society fall into that group there will be serious problems in the country.

One more thing to add. Besides making money there is a sizable percentage of the USA which has the main goal of taking drugs. The USA has become a nation of drug addicts.

The news reports that Ukraine assasinated a daughter of a Russian official. So essentially Ukraine has engaged in terrorist activity and the USA is subsidizing same. Terrible.

I certainly agree that as a percentage of daily effort and stress, making money is generally a higher priority for the average American than a Western European. That is something that comes with a society that allows for a higher individual ceiling while providing for a smaller social safety net. Personally I wouldn't have it any other way, a society that rewards talent and strategic effort while placing a ceiling on the lazy, those with unremarkable talents, and those not willing to take risks. In all societies, the rich get richer and enjoys those spoils. But at least in America, the poor with talent and determination still has a shot.

That being said, post pandemic attitudes toward slaving at work has changed. I have the privilege of being surrounded by both the older generations and the upcoming younger generations in my professional and personal lives. In the young, I see a much healthier approach to work-life balance. While I hang on to my long time friends in their late 30's and over 40, when spending time with younger friends in their late 20's and 30's, I certainly sense a different attitude toward enjoyment of life deprioritizing finances where sex is definitely not in all that short supply.

While the media may talk about and focus on the videos of young, disgruntled, protesters, their attitudes in the real world are certainly not as angry as portrayed, and certainly not as negative as the older and middle aged. They're just quick to voice their opinions but in action are much easier going than my peers approaching 40 yo and up. I certainly enjoy younger millennials and Zoomers over the older millennials and Boomer generations.

Actually is is the same. All have child support laws mandating nearly 50 percent of income given to ex spouse. All have the "rape shield" law which makes it unfair for women to allege fake rape claims. All have illegal prostitution which puts men in jail. All have police that are oppressive and would write a ticket for 5 mph over the speed limit! All have oppressive and regressive taxation and failure to provide for education and welfare of its citizens. All have the same language and same federal laws and constitution unlike Europe. And thus the USA is basically the same or similar no matter where one goes.

Here we have a list of, at best, let's call them "subjective exaggerations," and 2 true claims of common language and federal regulations. All par for the course of PoonToon's verbal diarrhea that has been pointed out multiple posters who likely has placed him on their ignore list. I however keep pointlessly keep fighting the good fight.

Did I write everywhere same in US? I know New Yorkers are a bit different than Texans, but US are able to elect cow boy Reagan, or crazy fucking democracy and really harrassing women, Trump, or to shoot Black. Not a good example for society. Maybe Obama would have improved? But he didn't have power for.

There's a reason why people are overly concerned with making money. It's because it's fucking expensive and costly to have a comfortable middle class lifestyle in the United States these days. But people can and should realize that they can still be comfortable (and happy) with a little less, including less debt that they took out hanging over their heads to buy too much education (there is such a thing), too much house, and too much car. Fewer things. And more fucking! But with birth control to prevent unwanted pregnancies and the expense that comes with raising kids too!

I just think US are not a good example with a bit shameful society, not more. I hate Putin, but I prefer Russia.

I am honestly more worried about the lack of human rights in the USA. Homeless people are suffering. Rampang gangs of Mexicans and Afros!

You seem to have forgotten the meanings of the word, honestly and worried. You don't seem like someone who worries about the suffering of others.

A total nuclear war would mean the obliteration of Russia, the US, Europe and China through nuclear weapons. The people who die in those countries would be the lucky ones. The ensuing nuclear winter would mean a slow agonizing death for people living further from those countries. The further south the slower the death.

There would still be food in the Southern tip of Argentina which is where I recommend. Getting stockpiled food and water and then after the first 30 days just get situated in an igloo.

At the beginning of World War II Germany was the most powerful country in the world. I have watched several hours of world war II footage for decades; those blue eyed blond soldiers to which you refer were very brave and enthusiastic about fighting 'for the fatherland'. They were scared of no one including Hitler. They were willing to die for their country. Germany lost the war through sheer force of numbers against them.

Two blondes together will lead to lowered intelligence. Ideally there should be a blonde girl dating a southern German or Italian with brown hair in order to maximize intelligence and promote the uprising of the Caucasian race.

You really think most blue eyed blond had same frustrated ideology than little Austrian? Most just followed like sheeps but didn't agree.

The Southern hemisphere will have no nuclear blasts except possibly Austrailia due to North Korea targeting it.

Thus Argentinian Navy will likely make its way to South Africa to help expell all the black from same and build a wall and all the white south Africans to trade and unite with Argentina.
