Yeah, I mean there are a lot of things the US does that appears "normalized" to the point that you maybe just see an angry tweet about it every now and then, but that's it. Those things are still hard for me to accept.

e.g.congress from both parties have what feels to me like extreme conflicts of interest when dominating the stock market (handily beating out every hedge fund returns across many congress members). It's like sports players being able to bet on the outcome of their own game, when they are almost capable of guaranteeing a certain outcome.
