Do you agree America is a culture of people using each other and most people see nothing wrong with it?

[Anonymous]

Even people's close friends and family do it a lot, that they see nothing wrong with their own close family and friends doing it and don't think someone is an asshole for it. They just think the action is wrong.

Maybe something to this. I do not want to condemn all from the USA but I have observed there is a "every man for himself" attitude frequently. That does not make for a very stable society.

And most people don't consider someone a bad person for using someone else in America yet think someone is a bad person for having consensual sex with random people, etc. Have you notice how most Americans excuse users? They don't even consider it bad if a close friend or close family member uses you.

From MY experience, YES! Though I've only lived in the western USA, so I don't know about other parts of the country, but California is definitely like that.

I live in Cali by whole life too. But I know the rest of America is the same. But I noticed it started becoming a huge problem around late 2000s and early 2010s and it just got worse and worse. Most people excuse it too. Have you noticed that? Like I literally tell many people when people have used me how they only or mainly hit me up for favors and they were a close friend. People literally said I should have helped him with money or they don't think he is a bad person for it. They say just the action is bad yet those same people think a single person is a bad person for having consensual random sex with people. Lol

And they also say"I can't say much cause I never met that person in person or haven't talked to them in person for a long time," That is so stupid. They don't use the same line for people who other things they consider bad.

What do you think of my latest replies?

Thats called civilisation. That's how it works.

[strateguy632]

the term using is for unfair. not for asking for help.

[Mike_Hum]

of course it isn't. so silly

[Asker]

You say this yet most people have a close friend or family that ONLY or mainly hits them up for favors

[Mike_Hum]

So let's break this down... If what you're claiming is true, the average person has 10-20 friends, say another 2 dozen family members. And 1 out of those 40 or 50 people MAY do this and you claim its "culture".

And you're claiming people in other countries don't experience this.

[KostasKouvalis]

It IS, and it's not silly at all. I've lived here my whole life, and he isn't wrong

[Mike_Hum]

@KostasKouvalis My family has been in the US since 1740s.

[KostasKouvalis]

The U. S. didn't exist in the 1740s

[Mike_Hum]

@KostasKouvalis the land was here, dummy.

How many times have you posted this? 🤦‍♀️

[Dargil]

Of course.

[Asker]

People think someone is a bad person for having consensual sex with random people but don't consider someone a bad person for using a close friend or family member. Make that make sense?
