    What I mean is here in the US we simp for the rich and hate the poor, therefore OP’s post really is nothing but a shower thought.

    Seeing the downvotes I think people didn’t get it. Maybe that fancy European Education isn’t as good as y’all think it is 🤣

      Yes I’m agreeing with you. People don’t love their oppressors for no reason, they’re culturally influenced to do so. The US is a pretty extreme example of it. Which is why it’s a shower thought to Americans; it requires a detached perspective to escape cultural preconceptions.
