@return2ozma Dear god, it would be lovely if Americans actually realised that they're only about 5% of the world population, and not actually as important as they think they are.
This is funny timing for me. I mentioned something related to my wife yesterday. When I was a kid, my perception of other countries was completely ridiculous. Low tech, uncivilized, impoverished, etc. compared to the USA. It took way too long for me to achieve a more realistic perspective of foreign countries at large. I’m not sure who to blame for this but the they surely belong to the previous generation or two.
When you're a delusional conspiracy theorists, anything is a direct attack on whatever you're delusional about at the time. Trying to rationalize their train of thought is impossible
Yeah, no, this makes no sense. However, I have in my life heard some conspiracy theories that were called conspiracy theories at the time that turned out to be true. So I'm not saying that it's impossible.
