Ignore all rumors about a great climate, laid back lifestyle, plenty of jobs, solid work life balance, low crime, a good social safety net, and that you're never actually going to see a crocodile/scorpion/drop bear/inland taipan in any major city. (The one about insane house prices is, alas, true.) | | |

| Anyone claiming their country is "the best the world's got" is probably victim of some nationalistic propaganda. |

| Americans have a very funny view of the world lmao. It's far from the worst place to be, but also not really at the top either |

| If when you say America you're talking about United States of America that's quite debatable not only right now but since some years ago. |

| American exceptionalism is well past its 'best before', there is no 'shining city on the hill'. |
