It's almost like socialism works and US propagandists have been telling us nothing but lies.
Right!? If socialism didn't work why did the American empire spent billions toppling socialist democracies and bombing millions of civilian?
For the rest of the world it's two shit holes fighting over supremacy
No, the global south is pretty clearly aligning with the rising PRC over the dying US Empire.
Eww
Why "eww?"
By that do you actually mean the rest of the Western world?
Well duh, the others have hardly any whi- smart people. Hardly any smart people. Can't help it, they can't even read the WaPo, CNN or BBC, which are the only news which aren't propaganda.
Nah.. Legit I think most countries
Travel to both China and the US and say that again. I'll promise you, you won't.
2x countries I'd never go to again.
Have you been to both? Or are you just so small minded you believe you know everything almost 2b people and the 2 biggest economies have to offer?
Yes, fuck there's a lot of Chinese dick sucker's on Lemmy.
Comrade, you may dislike China; and certainly it's got its problems. It's terrible indeed.
Yet where is the USA, if the American president supports UnitedHealthcare? Where is the USA, when its leaders siphon money from you, and try to tell you you're one of them, when you clearly aren't? Where is the USA, when Trump hides all Epstein evidence away?
Has America ever actually let you improve? Can you develop yourself when you live in fear and panic?
I'm an American living in China so maybe you can understand why I would be confused.
Did something go seriously wrong when you were in each country? Like I won't return to America if I can avoid it, but there's still aspects of it I get homesick for, namely the nature and food, and the convenience, price, and scale of cities in China is just good for your soul.
