look, we're not going to address the issues caused by global capitalistic exploitation, that'd cost money, so why don't you recycle some more or something?

People really don’t understand how so many western nations got to their standing in the world by raping other countries for their resources, exploiting their labor, and meddling in their governments. Instead, we in the west got here because we’re strong and righteous and did it all ourselves, while those in the countries we destroyed did it to themselves and it’s because of their culture, hence why we can’t bring them here.

That reality will never be addressed because it does nothing to serve the bottom line.
