For so many years we've been manipulated to be grateful for everything, because we could always be living in a dystopia like China

I'd like to know what world you've been living in where that was the case because for as long as I can remember, being raised in America we are taught about the racism, economic issues, and rise of inequality, and watching it blasted on the news

You are grossly generalizing a country with 50 individual education systems let alone how different regions like the south are from the northeast.

You're trying to make the same point you're willfully missing yourself.
