agree that the United States has a host of issues but dismissing it as backwards is a misrepresentation imo.
We’re all entitled to our opinions and we differ on this one. TJ has covered the vast majority in his post already. Backwards is a great way to describe the place in my humble opinion. The liberal terms you describe as coming from the US only do so due to the levels of persecution against people of colour and trans resulting in the terms needing to be coined in the first place.
None of these things are worthy of an “advanced” nation
The "states" part of the name is highly relevant here. Some states are as advanced as any other but some are rather less so.
@tjagain you forgot the literally crumbling infrastructure. Roads so bad that European vehicle manufacturers have to equip their exports with forged rather than cast alloy wheels. Also, just try cycling or walking anywhere.
There seems to be some misplaced sense of superiority here. Maybe it's another cultural thing imported from the USA?

Just like the UK then
