The fact you choose to compare “Americans don’t have paid family leave, or sick leave” or “scared of other religions” as one of its worst qualities already screams your biases. Why not include its actual atrocities? Why not evaulate the US on at least the same terms?

“covertly placed nuclear missiles in range to attempt a decapitating first strike” Ah the nice retcon of history. Cuba missiles were only placed as only covert first strike weapons, while being invaded, having wide spread state sponsored, and further direct evidence that the US would esclate soon. Not for a retaliatory strike against extreme American agression- but for covert first strike.

I think youre better off referring to actual “covertly placed nuclear missiles in range to attempt a decapitating first strike” in deployed in Turkey.

Man you libs really just sometimes shit all over the floor and declare you won the “argument”. Its cringe as fuck.

FDA being clearly wrong aside, its clear your reading comprehension skills fail in the face of your debate bro antics of wanting to dunk on OP and avoid addressing any of the facts said.

I think you’re just proving their point…

Capital, Chapter 1, Section 2 - though linen is a common commodity he uses in examples.

I think a decent amount of this can be explained by that Settlers was originally published in 1983. A lot of these ‘luxuries’ had really only come into prominence throughout the 20 years before that, and the white flight suburbia car hell project was just coming into its stride.

And I definitely took it as its not that these things are ‘bad’, bourgeoisie ‘luxuries’, etc. But to highlight the shear amount of extra wealth that was concentrated into the American labor aristocracy- in comparison to the rest of the world.

Your comments are textbook tone policing.

I think it pretty clear they’re just responding to this part of your comment and arguing the opposite. (Which is correct.)

…the Chinese government, who is currently waging cold war against Western states.

Oh the First Thought channel is relatively new, around 3 months or so? That would probably explain it. I’ve been enjoying it as well!

China has never been a democracy.

The US has never been a democracy.

Personally I think on some level they consider Japan to be ‘white’ and Western, so its just inherently okay.
