"American society" is sick. Which Dreamland country where oligarchs don't control the decisions are you from again?

The whole world is sick my guy.

False equivalence.

Which Dreamland country where oligarchs don’t control the decisions are you from again?

Oligarchs do definitely not control my country, because I live in a country that has full democracy contrary to USA that is a flawed democracy.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Economist_Democracy_Index

But it's not because the democracy is flawed that USA is sociopathic, or because the oligarchs have too much power, the American society is literally mentally ill with widespread accept of a level of sociopathy that is only seen in very few countries.
Examples of that are, 3 strikes and you are out, prisoners can't vote, lack of healthcare for all, extreme fascist-like religious bigotry against LGBT+, death sentence, police shooting civilians. and of course extremely high murder rate, and the most extreme rate of people in prison in the world.
These are points made with broad strokes, there are many more and all of them are caused by a complete sociopathic lack of will in society to fix these problems, and even a sociopathic endorsement of the above conditions. The tendency is to go with the sociopathic solution of just persecuting the victims more.
THAT'S the sociopathy of American society. That you don't see any other country with remotely equal wealth express to nearly the degree USA does.
