maybe bad things in the U.S. are worse than bad things in China because the U.S. is the leading power of liberal democracy and western ideals and as such the bad things they do are taken in higher regard than some state-capitalism,special zone billion people mess on the other side of the world.

the OP is stupid as gently caress and i wasn't responding to it.

and why is it a circlejerk? Why can't liberal democracies compare merits and flaws? It would certainly be more productive than comparing our processes with things that have nothing to do with our system.

Yes, there is no such thing as human nature. Human beings are utterly defined and shaped by the societies we find ourselves in, which is why the writings of ancient Greeks, Egyptians, Assyrians or other ancient peoples in radically different social settings are impossible for us to understand or even come close to comprehending and we must continue to examine Homer as the writings of some alien species. Give it up Capitailures!

it's funny when people get so excited to joke about HorseLord's terrible postng and end up being way worse than him.
