see every actually developed country

and a lot of developing countries, Algeria which had a literacy rate of 3% had universal healthcare in the 70s, 10 years of not being a settler colony

Libya too before 2011 (except the literacy rate was recorded to be 89 to 99% at one point)!

not to mention the fact that that the "developed" countries depend heavily on the exploitation of the Global South to provide free/universal healthcare, yes European reader reading this, this includes Finland and no Poland isn't excluded either.

of course they did, anything so much as hints at providing welfare services that isn't born out of imperialism is a threat to their imperialism... so they needed to make an example out of Libyans by turning it into a sex slave trading hub.
