When a truly vicious and awful woman like her says that,
Maybe people should listen
Well, to be fair, the civilised world listened, but 'Murica has always been busy sitting in the corner eating crayons and finger-painting on the with its own shit
it's not a real quote
Yeah, I'm aware
It's a shitpost
My point still stands
unfortunately america grew into largest democratic experiment of its time. many of its base processes were not designed to deal with operating such a large country effectively and its not easy to change because of inertia.
the good news is we learned from america's disaster and most other democratic systems post dating it are more robust
It was never based on democracy though
It was stolen
Then, people were brought to 'Murica because people who were already rich needed more slaves
Then, those people were weighted as a fraction of a white person when some semblance of equality started to leak in (under duress)
The US wasn't some experiment
It isn't something that happened with some noble purpose in mind (despite the propaganda)
It was a way for some rich people to take over a place to get even more rich
Now it has become the epitome of that celebrated greed
There are plenty of people just as wealthy, especially in Russia and India, but it's the Murican billionaire who is considered smart
You know,
Because racism
They're all awful cunts, but the Yanks are somehow held up as economic titans, rather than parasites
Literally none of that is related to what I said except in the most general sense. Me: america's institutions are democratically very flawed and where used as a way to not build a democracy in modern times. You: OMG AMERICA SUCKS AND HERE IS ALL THE TERRIBLE THINGS THEY'VE DONE.
Yeah no shit. happy you could trauma dump though. hope you feel better.
You say... the price of my love is not a price that you're willing to pay.
