I thought I was out but you pulled me back in.
I again think you're overlooking the destruction an imperialistic western agenda has really caused.

You're basically also describing the US government here. Rights are being taken away far too often. Inflation and wage suppression is flowing money up to the top 1% of the US class system. Food insecurity is increasing - It's the same thing.

Yeah, we should really investigate some of the countries that the US has destabilized to gain access to their resources, or suppress regime change uprisings that they don't agree with. They don't typically end with hand holding and free market goodness.
There's bad in both, I'd honestly argue that the US/capitalist side has caused more damage due to it's extreme power imbalance and sustained existence.
OK. I'm actually going to be done with this conversation now. Sorry to keep jumping in.
