Reasons America is #1 according to Tucker
- It's rweally pretty
- The people are "nice"
- We tip more than places that don't have a tipping economy
- We brutalize, murder and eat animals that aren't dogs
- We prefer incremental change
- We don't use the metric system
- We have Christmas and other countries don't apparently???
Honestly this whole clip makes me want to simultaneously burst out into laughter and tear of sorrow. This is it, this is the best they have, it's so hilarious in a way, but it's fucking gut wrenching because even then untold millions will eat this shit up.
It makes me sad that Americans are so obsessed with being #1 in the first place, with the glorification of their state, like why? and then you do and this is what you come up with? half of it isn't even true and the rest is basically irrelevant.
But honestly...the thing that makes me the saddest, the thing that really makes me want to break down in tears is our history and current treatment of the natives. I memed on it on Twitter because, again, like...it's honestly hilarious how they set it up, but beyond that...it's really just sad. It's sad that Tucker can just say the word Shoshone and these people don't even register to him, what we did doesn't register, they are just forgotten.
I dunno, I feel like I am screaming into the void, but I had to say something some where, even if I am preaching to the choir.
I'm so fucking sick of Christmas at that point. Every year I tell my family I don't need more pointless consumer shit and I need nothing (baring the occasional pair of shoes some years), every year they still buy useless shit for me. I'd love for it to be just a great meal and that's it. This year I'm half hoping we're still in lockdown when the date comes so I have an excuse to try and spend it alone at home with my SO.
