    Hi America, the people around the world living through famines, wars and genocides would like to have a quiet word with you.

      More people are food insecure in America than in Ethiopia in current year. More people are imprisoned and enslaved in the US per capita than the population of uighurs internationally or in xinjiang, while having incomprably worse prison conditions. Swat kills more kids than the average army at war.

      And that’s the official statistics that the government openly publishes, not including the tens of millions of undocumented people and cases of violence and imprisonment which fall through the laughably, arguably purposefully large cracks in us internal data collection.

      Oh I’m fairly confident that we’ll see our famine and genocide too. War? Idk there ain’t no war but class war, so we see plenty of war, just one side is winning.
