It's true

If you ask the average American if America should be involved on the world stage most are gonna say no

There was huge opposition during both world wars to not enter combat

Americans don't know much about the world outside America so why would they care about?
Why do you think there are so many Americans who are like "why don't just take all the oil (resources) from the middle East and be done with it"? They don't give a shit about the middle East outside of American lives lost
Why do you think there are so many Americans opposed to apologizing for the atomic bombs? It's not just propaganda it's that Americans have never really given much of a shit about foreign lives compared to American lives

What you see in America is a complete disconnect between the ruling class (politicians, bankers, etc) and the plebs which is why Donald Trump is doing so well

Rural people are the dumbest. I worked in a Podunk town called Greenville Alabama. They always refer to it as Greenville Alabama, as if the state was part of the town. They're very proud to have once owned slaves. Fervent evolution deniers, go muddin', eat conecuh gator sausage, know nothing of the outside word, and speak English as if their tongue is numbed and they're about to fall asleep. They take probably a good minute for 3 short sentences. It is mind-numbing.

That's not even the main reason. I'm mostly mad because Vladimir is not common name at all (Ivan is uncommon too) yet Russians get called by Vladimir.
And there is also this thing about name: it never gets shortened to Vlad since Vlad is completely different name. Short for Vladimir are Volodya or Vova.

No, we are able to defend ourselves from Chinese expansion. Although i don't believe in that "Chinese threat", it's absolutely unrealistic. America and its allies are the only actual existential threat to our nation.

Actually no, that is kinda of a myth, drug use was decriminalized but you can be still arrested if go around smoking everywhere, if you keep it to yourself with friends even on the streets police wont bother, if you have more than a normal person use you can get in trouble.
