Right.
Search for how many land/companies they own in South America/Africa, were the Amazonian wood go, the minerals extract from South America and the gems from Africa, who owns the vast majority of Brazilian coffee
This is imperialism with nice things for white people.
So, I looked it up. You're right. NATO countries are pillaging Africa in a way I never knew about. The index score is a good thing still, I think. But the source of that score should be considered.
Does anywhere exist with a high score that is ethically sourced?
I know China does the same thing in Africa. So they're out...
Regarding that comment about white people. The US is far more diverse than any super power. The only close comparison is Canada which is more diverse, but not a real super power.
The combined population of NATO is nearing 1 billion and it's much more diverse than China or Russia or any other "communist" or "socialist" state.
Anyways, I'm not saying NATO is good thing or bad thing. I don't truly know. But I know the US style of capitalism appears to bleed into NATO is shit. And China's "socialism" is shit too.
Russia is fully thirty-five fucking years into its life as a neoliberal hellhole.
Coaxed into a snafu again.
No you don't. You don't know that. You assume it.
Lol. Says they're not the average dumb westerner. Thinks Russia is still communist
Decolonization, which began after WWI, was replaced by neocolonialism/neoimperialism. The same imperialist states have been doing it on the sly ever since, with the US as the mafia Don.
