Make America Great Again? America is already "great". Obesity rates in US states and European countries

the "greatest country in the world" parole. People repeat it like there's no tomorrow without it being supported by the facts at all

Isn't this just the... norm everywhere? From what I can tell, loving your country and saying it's #1 regardless of the actual facts is what everyone does. (Btw, the German "guilt culture" is sorta unhealthy for that nation IMHO)

About America specifically: well, the US has pretty much been the leader of the free (a.k.a. non-communist) world since 1946. The entire way the world works now is literally because of America... or more specifically the American military. And this isn't me being a shill; look up some of Peter Zeihan's stuff.

That being said, part of me also feels that American exceptionalism is somewhat rooted on the fact that the Americans have no history and little culture to speak of and be proud of once you take away "muh Constitution" and their status as the world's top dog.
