Absolutely agree. The propaganda smothers USians from birth (or maybe from conception). Any power structure that needs to constantly drum into its population that it's the best and most moral must be doing some awfully heinous things behind the scenes--as has been the case throughout US history. The US has done more evil than virtually any country in world history, so yes, US exceptionalism means exceptionally harmful, exceptionally evil and exceptionally mendacious.
