For those who doubt the reach and influence of US domestic culture and policy abroad: my son has a toy transformer robot his grandma gave him—made in China, bought from a Korean store—that is a cop car with the English label “SWAT TEAM” on it. But for those who don’t know how kids can improve things by accident: he thinks it’s pronounced “SWAMP TEAM” and apparently it’s a robot that helps swamp creatures in trouble.
