this is not an educated opinion in any way.
go live overseas, in a 1st world nation, by yourself, for any amount of time greater than a year, learn the the basics of the politics of that country, then come back to the US, go to college here, and tell anyone honestly that colleges in the US focus on 'being blue' before "the basics".
if you can do that without lying, you didn't do the homework of actually living overseas alone (away from echo chambers and US media influence).
laughable
The left-wing of the US is more right-wing than any other 1st world country, except MAYBE the UK and Australia. Maybe, depending on what you learn about social programs in the country you choose to live.
The US is so unbelievably red compared to anywhere else. it is insane to me to hear anyone complain that anything in the US is "blue" at all.
- devwastaken 5y agoWhere overseas exactly? I don't recall any international students having to take classes on sensitivity to other cultures, their privilege, and how everything has to be non offensive and accepting. Where disagreement is viewed as hostile. Day 1 as a uni student that's what U.S. universities continually go over for a whole semester. It's driven to the point of propaganda, and is clearly messaging that is coming from political sources, not academic ones.
