  Yes, thats part of the why but it’s still odd culturally from the perspective of the rest of the world especially since what you’re describing occurred 100+ years ago and the terminology has likely only persusted because of the US’ gun obsession.

  You can’t even whisper criticism of capitalism / the free market or you will be labeled a filthy commie.

  Try saying that the Western world has set humanity on a path towards extinction by industrializing without a meaningful thought towards sustainability and youll b) get a response of BUT CHINA CHINA CHINA CHINA (maybe a little India) BUT CHINA by people who are considered well educated and well regarded there. Its the NYT, Washington Post aka American mainstream media brainrot, it’s quite rampant.
