Like so many Americans, I am sick and tired of watching the rapid decline of our culture right in front of our eyes.
Sentiment: NEGATIVE
I feel that we have come a long way as American people, and we have to start looking at ourselves as human beings.
I think a lot of us are increasingly recognizing that the dominant culture is killing the planet.
My hunch is that pop culture began to stagnate the moment Americans started to love the past more than they did the future.
I'm surprised and disappointed in American culture.
When your culture comes from watching TV every day, you're bombarded with images of things that seem cool, places that seem interesting, people who have jobs and careers and opportunities. None of that happened where I was. You're almost taught to realize it's not for you.
We still have a lot of work to do in American culture. More open-mindedness is happening - in some cases rapidly, in some, slowly.
It's very, very hard to affect culture. And you can get surprised thinking you're farther down the path of change than you really are because, frankly, most of us like the way things are.
We will either bring on another American century, or we are doomed to witness America's decline.
This great, though disastrous, culture can only change as we begin to stand off and see... the inveterate materialism which has become the model for cultures around the world.
It's because we are so flooded with American culture that we're startled when we see ourselves up there on the screen.
