As Konstantin of Triggernometry once said, "Other countries don't teach their students to hate their country" Maybe we can start there. I must say, I'm very optimistic person but boy am I jaded. Between the revelations coming out about Lord Fauci (which most sane people suspected) and his behavior to all the craziness in general. I have a fix though. Every HS student, before going to college, military or starting work have to spend at least 6 months in Vietnam, Malaysia, Indonesia, Burundi, or Madagascar. THEN, maybe then, they will realize that they have it pretty good after all. I grew up in Korea in the 70's and our family was poor. Not the US standard of poor, I mean no running water outhouse and newspaper for toilet paper poor. My mom heated large vats of water once a week to give us a shower in the kitchen. I wish these indoctrinated kids could really see what the real world looks like besides the "oppressive and systematic racist country that is the US" I'm betting they will change their tune pretty quickly.
