I've definitely picked up a vibe here in the States in some people, even amongst a few friends & family. Namely, an extreme intolerance of opposing or differing opinions combined with a tendency to say vicious things about those who are not conforming to their 'tribal ideology' (for the lack of a better term). Sometimes here in the US I feel more like an outsider than I do in Mongolia... I may look very different from the norm over there, but it's very "live and let live" and I'm not constantly judged for being different. The current state of American culture & society bums me out big time, but at least I can still make jokes about it... 😏
