Every country has problems but for most of these countries it’s to be expected. A small country with unstable politics and a developing economy is bound to have issues. The USA is a global superpower with immense influence on the world stage and quadruple the money of the next richest country, yet it struggles with problems most advanced nations have a handle on.
Women dying during childbirth. Adults being illiterate. Cops killing and abusing power. Most of America’s peers don’t have these issues. America is ranked next to small third world countries in these stats and many more. America isn’t mocked because it has problems. It’s mocked because it has problems it really shouldn’t have.
And none of this will ever get fixed in the current US political climate. MAGA has taken over the Republican party, and Democrats can do whatever the fuck they want because people will defend them with “Doesn’t matter because Trump exists.”
The MAGA cult wants us to return to Biblical times and values, while Democrats pretend to be outraged at Republicans while they’re doing the same damn shit (like racism and bailing out the rich).
Every other developed country has universal healthcare, while the best we could do is impose a tax on people who can’t afford health insurance.
People are too afraid to call out their own side’s bullshit.

We’re all envious of their freedom though. Their freedom… it’s just so much freer than ours.
It’s not free, though. It costs a buck o’ five.
In a thread full of emotional, simplistic opinions, I’m pleasantly surprised to come across one that’s so well put.

We need to do better than this.
And of course someone had to come and explain it again in the meme post. Paid actor over here
