Our school lunches where I work are a lot better then this but were also a petty good district in the state with decent funding.

Hot take: I feel like this gets thrown out to absolve the American public, the idea being the US is only advanced cuz we have so many mega-rich while the rest of the country lives is squalor.
While this is kinda true, I also think the reason the richest and most powerful country has so much broke and tacky shit is a cultural one. Americans culture sells everyone on simultaneously being a “rugged individualist frontiersman” and also a consumerist piggy. So good infrastructure is state tyranny, but also slop is an expression of our capitalist wealth. The American middle class loves that everything is shitty and tacky because it makes them feel like feudal Barrons as they drive their F150s to Buffalo Wild Wings.
yeah there’s zero shot we’re the most advanced.
maybe we have the most advanced propaganda machine, the most advanced spying apparatus, and the most advanced military, but for your average person living in this country they don’t even have a fucking bus route in their town, let alone a train, LET ALONE a bullet train that can get them anywhere in a reasonable amount of time. all of the roads are broken, they barely even install street lights anywhere anymore besides right outside of middle class neighborhoods. the airports are all shit.
everything here is old or its shitty or its fucked or its all 3.
we’re “the most advanced” in that all the world’s parasitic rich pieces of shit live here because we’re such a fucked up shit hole that they get to lord over us all and live like gods while the rest of us slave away for scraps while damn near every elected official is at the age that they should just fucking die already but even they wont do us that favor and instead they control our lives to the degree that we arent even allowed to look at a god damn brain rot app anymore. but here you go here’s some propaganda on facebook and instagram because thats the good kind of propaganda
dammit now im heated. fuck amerikkka. death to amerikkka.
That’s exactly what “most advanced” means lol. The US is probably the best place for the 1% of the 1% of the 1% to live because they can do whatever they want and get whatever they want so long as they have the cash.
Just look at all the private jets used for frivolous reasons, like the Kardashians or Starbucks CEO using them to commute up and down California or the west coast. Like they’re not even flying to Dallas, let alone New York or Miami. Even the EU is talking about banning private flights or imposing harsher taxes. Banning any kind of carbon emissions is completely off the table in the US. Taylor Swift fans would rather watch the world burn than inconvenience their queen.
