J.S. Bach wanted, as a kid, to become a military officer, A. Einstein a pilot, M. Lermontov – A. Pushkin, etc., and none of them become what they wanted. How disappointing their lives must have been!
Americans, as a nation, lack any transparency. Most people here are so set in their ways, it’s horrifying. Without flexibility and self-reflection there’s no true individuality.
From the outside, the US looks as colorful, seductive, fun, and sexy. From inside – gray, boring, asexual. You’d have to live in it in order to know this.
The US is the most totalitarian country in the World. Population control is more rigid than elsewhere. Also, that population isn’t even remotely aware of the ways they were manipulated by the ruling classes.
The US is the most boring country in the World. All that Americans are talking about is “business” and “how to make money”, and the most popular word is “SALE!!!”. Once I was eavesdropping on two philosophy students: they were talking about how to make money in philosophy! What a blasphemy!
Media in the US is sooo biased in serving big capital, that I don’t understand who can take them seriously?! You’d have to be a real idiot to take them for granted.
