It's not just exposure to political content that makes it not fun to live in America. It's the never ending mountain of shit you deal with on a daily basis simply because you're an American.
Meh. That exists everywhere.
If you got a college degree you can move to a lot of places in the US which have a higher HDI and a living standard than almost anything in Europe. And you don't even need to learn a new language.
Cry all you want about healthcare, but as a white-collar worker you'll have a corporate insurance plan and it will be lit. Try some European public healthcare afterwards, that will be a harsh downgrade, I promise.
You do have a biiig problem is if you're uneducated and working at McDonald's or an Amazon warehouse. Cuz then you're fucked. Like for life. And don't you dare go unemployed, homeless, or get sick. Cuz, life, apparently can be worse than being an amazon slave, and apparently you won't ever "recover" (to your previous slave state) from falling that low.
And, ofc, it's fun to live in a society like that.
But you definitely don't need to personally struggle on a daily basis. Unless by choice.
You are clueless about what it's like to live in this country. Healthcare being largely a scam even if you have insurance is just one piece of the puzzle.
