Do you think America as a nation is genuine? - eviltoast

Kind of a vague question. But I guess anyone that responds can state their interpretation.

Edit: I guess I’m asking because everything I’ve learned about America seems to not be what I was told? Idk how to explain it. Like it feels like USA is one event away from a civil war outright corruption and turning into a D class country.

    That’s awful beyond words. I don’t know what’s worse, the fact that you’re caught in that, or that Wagner is so vilely prolific that what you’ve told me doesn’t even narrow it down to the continent.

      It’s Sudan. War’s been raging since April of last year. The war is between the Sudanese army and the Rapid Support Forces, a militia responsible for a ethnic genocides in Darfur years ago that are now being repeated.

      Also I’m not caught up in that at all. Some extended family is. But I’m very very lucky to have been living somewhere else since I was 6.

        I’ve heard a bit about it. That’s a really messy one and it’s really hard to see things getting better anytime soon.
