I wouldn’t get too damned carried away in disparaging the Catholic Church by what one sees of the Church in the United States.

Is America really all that bad compared to the others, for a Catholic?

According to the CIA Factbook, the five countries with the largest number of Catholics are:
Brazil
Mexico
Philippines
United States
Italy

Counting heads and noses is some distance from my point. Better to say the Church in the US is simply no stand alone model, as those in the Church, on earth, are a sinful lot for sure. Always have been. Socialism is forbidden, however many degrees it may exist in some quarters of Catholic influence.

Besides, the Enemy has been after the Church from the beginning. That is one sign you are in the right place.
