Not sure why I haven’t seen more posting about this. Piggy decided to project onto some poor newswoman.

Come on, that is a pretty warped way of looking at things. How many Americans do you actually know in real life, not just people you have bumped into online? Yes, there are definitely groups in the U.S. that fit the stereotype you are talking about, but it is a huge leap to act like that applies to the entire country. It is a bit like saying all Russians hate democracy and want the world to fall apart. We both know that is not how things really work.
Think about it like this. If we went to the World Cheese Awards in Switzerland, you might assume every single person there is a cheese fanatic. I can promise you we would still find at least one person who does not care about cheese at all or barely knows anything about it. People are unpredictable like that.
Just because a large part of a group behaves badly does not mean everyone in that group is the same. It is worth slowing down and remembering that individuals are far more varied than the loudest or worst examples of the group they happen to be in.
Tldr: we ain’t all the same bruv
I spend a lot of time in the US. I’m over several times every year.
Even the relatively normal yanks have still been indoctrinated into worshipping material possessions, jealousy, fucking someone over so that they can get more
It’s a country where everyone is terrified of everyone else, and for good reason. Sure, there are outliers, but the population as a whole is fundamentally culturally different to the civilised world
It’s not their fault, their society has been carefully engineered to be this way by some powerful and evil people
As an American: we’re the same enough
As an English speaker I can tell you that makes zero sense.
Fine, how about “we’re enough the same”
