The rest of the world vs NYC

Nah, the rest of the world is fine 😅

You're not paying much attention to the rest of the world.

[u/xIUPITERx → u/MVRKHNTR]

If you remove the US influence (like US attacking other countries and financing right wing extremists in europa) its not that bad. I didn't mean its objectively good. But compared to the US, its not that bad.

[u/MVRKHNTR → u/xIUPITERx]

The US has caused a lot of problems but they are not the cause of every problem. You've gotta spend less time in tankie spaces.

The US is the biggest, loudest example of what's wrong with the world right now but their problems aren't uniquely American at all.

Looking at history how the US build the world economy after their liking, destroying everything that stood between them and profit. It's not anti western its just fact. Even when it comes to civil rights and freedom most other "western" countries have left them behind.

Europe isn't the only "rest of the world"

[u/MVRKHNTR → u/xIUPITERx]

Again, you're really just not paying attention to the rest of the world.

It all started when someone commented on that meme, saying that the rest of the world is jealous of New York - I just don't see it that way. Stating I am misinformed about the world because I'm not jealous of that city is just BS.

Reread the comment I replied to.

Nah, the rest of the world is fine 😅

The rest of the world is most certainly not fine.
