I agree with the message but the delivery I have some problems with. "Greatest country in the world" was a cold war slogan alongside "God bless America" and "Free World". It's less of an affirmation and more of a declaration that easily becomes defensive the second someone points to problem. Wouldn't true belief in that mantra result in people wanting to sort out those problems, confident that "the greatest country" can face them? Then the Jake Paul thing fell flat for me. It would be different if Jake was an aspiring boxer who got his shot but he's not. He's an influencer who had the money to pivot into spectacle matches against retired boxers. He had the money, time, and support to train of these once off matches
Again, the article is great and I love the message, I just think the two examples are a bit oversimplified to prove your point. The rest are great examples (bitcoin, trump, etc).
