State of the US: A matter of perspective

If you believe the Democrats, the US is full of extremist right wingers (Nazis) that they are fighting to keep at bay. If you believe the Republicans, the US is full of extremist left wingers (Stalinists) that they are fighting to keep at bay.

If you believe the hordes of Mexicans, Latin Americans and various others crossing the border into the US, then the US is full of freedom and opportunities.

If you believe the Chinese, Russians, Iranians, North Koreans and Arabs, the US is the big evil global overlord. If you believe the Indians, Japanese, South Koreans and Israelis, the US is generally a force for good.

If you believe the Europeans, then the US is their powerful kid brother still growing up, still figuring out the world and what it wants to be.

When everyone thinks something about the US that others contradict, we can say the US seems to have quite a well-rounded personality!!! 😆

Countries are like people: No two are the same.

Whose perspective is the correct perspective? 🤷🏻‍♂

If it were possible to be god like and see the whole perspective, it still wouldn't be the correct perspective. Just another different perspective.

Seeing the forest, isn't seeing each and every single tree and it's relationship to everything else.

@DeWayfarer Every perspective has some element of correctness, though all are far from the whole truth.
