I'd say the biggest problem is that America is no longer the America that became great. There are elements of American culture that are worthy of emulation. Other elements are simply various forms of decadence and degeneracy.
I think there's truth to this. Not that 80s American culture is perfect, but personally, I would have very little problem with Americanization if it doesn't involve rainbow flags and Hollywood/Disney movies.
I figured you'd like this one. I think higher education (and perhaps education in general) is definitely how American culture is being spread to the elites other countries, especially third-world countries who see education from these institutions as more valuable all else being equal. This is in contrast to the lower class/commoners, who probably picked up American culture through pop culture stuff like Hollywood movies and whatnot.
(And yes, this a very late comment lol. I wanted to reply sooner but I just kept putting it off)
