The great thing about America is that we really don't have to live up to other people's expectations if we see no benefit in it. On the other hand, if we do see a benefit fitting in with the crowd, then, by all means, go for it.

An "idiocracy" is the inevitable result of mass, liberal, universal suffrage democracy.

Before COVID, I went to Walmart at least twice a week.

Now, maybe once a month.

So yes, I do know my way around a Walmart, whether it's at home or when we travel.

If you need a hammer, a bird feeder, a small plant for a gift, and groceries, you can't beat it.

But I insist if you go to Walmart and randomly photograph people, then drive to Target and do the same, everyone would be able to judge which collection of pics came from which store.

I can agree with the obesity problem.

We have become so totally infantilized and debased as a culture that it will likely take several generations to completely reverse this.
The conspiracy nuts will likely tell you it's about something in the water, such as added fluoride. It can take away critical thinking skills, such as some people on here insisting that Trump is the best president in American history.

I did see a video of two women having a fistfight at a Walmart on YouTube recently.
I don't think between the two of them that they had one complete set of teeth.

But what reason is there to believe similar confrontations never took place in the days before YouTube and cellphone cameras?
