7 months agoNot contradicting, but sharing my perspective. I teach 14 - 18 year olds in the USA, 80% of which are male. Andrew Tate peaked in their discussions about the time of his 1st arrest. (Was that last year?) I rarely hear about him anymore and really none this past school year.
If the current conversations I’m constantly battling are any indication, then the content algorithms are mainly serving up Jewish hate. Though surprisingly those comments are not tied to current events in Israel and Gaza.
USA here. I like in one of the areas with the lowest cost to living in the USA (Kentucky). I just paid my daughter’s fall tuition to the University of Kentucky yesterday. It’s a state school which accepts 95% of those who apply. Average SAT ~1100. (My point, by no means is it a selective school.) Her tuition for one semester was $6851 or 6275 €. This does not include housing, food, or living expenses.
I don’t want to get into USA vs anyone else, as everyplace is different, with their own areas that make them stand out or not. However when it comes to post-secondary education and healthcare in terms of COST (not quality) the USA quantitatively lags well behind Western Europe.
