    Americans are afraid of each other

    They're afraid of someone knocking on the door

    They're afraid their boss will fire them and they will lose their health insurance

    They're afraid of other countries

    I spend a lot of time in the US, and I've never seen anywhere with people constantly on edge. They're so used to it that they don't notice any more

    I've never seen anywhere so ruled by fear

    Well if I was standing next to someone called "FistingEnthusiast" I might be quite fearful myself!

    That's exactly what a fisting enthusiast would say. >:(

    When looking at the social anxiety epidemic across America, very much affecting young people, I’m sorry to say this is not true.

    People think they’re unique in not wanting to pick up a phone to order a meal from a restaurant, but it’s everyone now. SO many people want to minimize social contact to an extreme degree. It’s part of why political opposition to rampant oppression is so lack luster.
