The Epcot Center is a loathsome obscenity. It purports to be educational, yet only presents the viewpoints of large corporations.

It presents ignorance as knowledge, and stupidity as wisdom.

Its comedy versions of other nations serve only to convince Americans of their superior status; those other nations are mere shadows on a screen to to invaded or ignored.

I went there by invitation; when I critiqued the phoney "Canada", they cared not a whit. Only that it presented a Canada that fitted the American vision of what Canada might be like.

When people from other nations visit, they see it as a joke. When Americans visit, they see it as reality.

It is damnable and disgusting.
