"It takes a lot of work to ignore reality so thoroughly."

America seems to have done a good job indoctrinating the belief though, starting at a very young age.

Even press freedom, is arguably relatively poor: https://rsf.org/en/ranking

Objectively, US is 45th on the list, below Lithuania, Czech Republic, Trinidad, Jamaica and Namibia.

Not even top 20% in terms of press freedom! But if you ask most people, they would say US is #1 (or at least top 10) in the world.
