Why are Americans are so Dumb?

I can only imagine how we must look to other countries that did what they had to do, when it had to be done. What the hell is wrong with us? Why in the hell do we have to politicize EVERYTHING?

It makes perfect sense to be wearing a face covering while there's an (airborne) epidemic. I don't get it.

I for years have been interacting with those from other countries. The job I retired from was very international in scope. Can tell you with 100% confidence, the loud mouth self assured ignorant opinionated, yes wrong most all of the time. We the native born.....

Embarrassing it was. Oblivious or uncaring were the "Americans". I only say this because "they" do not even consider anyone else fro North and South America as such....

I think the biggest mistake the experts could have made was for them to say "you're wearing a mask for the other guy." In my opinion, people don't give a shit about others anymore. When I watch the local news in the evening, I'm amazed by how many hit and run accidents there are. Drivers will just run over a pedestrian and keep right on going. That didn't happen in years past.

Yes, sigh, I'm an old guy.

What gets me, is the hypocrisy or is it stupidity the arrogance and shear ignorance mindset of them.

Would they allow a surgeon and nurses to operate on them without a mask?

H...E...., double hockey stick no!

Yeah, and then you have Trump saying "I don't agree with Dr. Fauci" about how to handle covid. Why would anyone even care if he disagrees with medical professionals about how to handle a pandemic? What qualifies him to even have an opinion on anything scientific?!

It's how our one party state maintains power.

The ignorant are fearful and fighting mask wearing is an expression of ignorant fear.

That's the main thing about the U.S. There is no shortage of the ignorant.

I it not just ignorance, rather arrogance being told since birth they are the greatest smartest most successful country. Then expecting it to be so, without any effort or suffering.

Like I stated before, worked with people from around the world in the airline industry. Feel safe in stating this as a fact, the loudest opinionated voice, know it all, in any room would be local.
