Well, you might be wondering what country "nacirema" comes from, you might have checked the world map and couldn't find it there, you might be sitting down and wondering what kind of strange culture/tribe allows peoples body to be used for ritual, okay, let me disappoint you, nacirema is actually America written backward.

Based on this, we tend to see other cultures as weird and horrible, we look down on them and wish they could be wiped off the map, there seems to be a us vs them, we feel we are better and shouldn't associate with such people or culture. They, on the other hand, view us as the strongest, richest and most powerful nation in the world, however, they still view us as a people who discriminate against other cultures, they view us as been rude and cruel to their culture, we often laugh at them when they speak, just becuase they dont speak like Americans, to us our perspective is the only one that's truly right, but the truth is, every culture is unique.
