What I feel more fascinating is how, at least it seems to me, the exceptionalism often stays with Americans even if they do realise how shitty the country is becoming. You can see it either in comments suggesting the USA is worse that any third world country (“we’re the best at being the worst!”) or, especially with tankies, where since capitalism isn’t working in the USA and USA is the best at capitalism so obviously it can’t work anywhere else and the Russian model is the way to go.
It’s just how it looks to me as an outsider, but I can’t shake the feeling that the idea of American exceptionalism is too deeply entrenched even in people who hate the country.
