If we’re being honest with ourselves it goes back much further than that. It has never, at any point, been what it set out to be or what it claimed to be.
Kinda hinted toward it in another post but its more about my own personal perspective. At a young age my life was mostly devoid of politics and america seemed like an ok place. Since the attack on the twin towers, for me personally, america has only gotten worse. To me, 911 marks the end of america, as an idea.
Another American here, I think it's important to be aware that those attacks happened as a direct result of evil -empire level shit the US is responsible for in the 20th century.
I disagree with the last sentence. I think we made an attempt. But everything after WWII has been headed this direction without much checking.
