You said this:
"As Americans we are
constantly distracted by the superficial, disconnected from our
communities, we avoid genuine involvement with our local governments
and we provide wealth to the companies that screw us in the end. We
are intellectually lazy and narcissistic. We care only how we look,
what we drive and how that compares to others.
I blame American anti intellectualism for a big chunk of that and am
amazed that "elite" could be considered a derogatory remark."
So you made a sweeping generalization about a group to which I
belong. You even anticipagted our counter-arguement (elitism) in
your post.
Did you really expect me, as part of the group you criticized, to not
respond?
You posted something not too long ago about fascism stopping speech.
Yet here in practice, on this board, you try the same.
