  • What I’m illustrating is that America, despite being “the land of the free,” is very much not free.

    It isn’t and never was.

    So it doesn’t help that you’re assuming I don’t pay attention outside my borders.

    No, I didn’t say that. I felt as if you were saying the problems of bribery, corruption, unfair elections, systemic violence by government on its citizens are unique problems of the US government. It isn’t, we have also seen them, and I do sympathise with American people facing these things.

    we are all just as helpless as each other.

    People have power. Even the most oppressed people have fought for themselves, and in many cases, have won.


  • system is ruled by money and bribes

    are the leaders precisely because they have the most money that can be used for campaign ads

    insider trading of our politicians.

    threatening voters with violence.

    people dying at protests.

    Every single point here is also true about my own country, which is nowhere near the US.

    America has a different political system than ANY other country in the world.

    You’ve yet to see the rest of the world.
