Comment on Would the US (if not the entire world) be better if that kid didn't break in to Harambe's enclosure over in the Cincinnati Zoo back in 2016?

This, but instead of your rant against the US, just humans in general. Every country has those kinds of people that would enable evil. The only difference is that that in different places their evilness is allowed in different amounts/representation.

rant against the US

You call that a rant? This is a rant! 😆

Yes exactly. AmeriKKKa in particular allows for the maximal evil as a function of the maximal ignorance our privilege buys us. There are privileged people in every country, but AmeriKKKa has a culture which disproportionately exalts the characteristics of privilege, in particular our ability to be ignorant. In short: AmeriKKKa has a bourgeois culture.

Like if AmeriKKKan settlers acted even a fraction as ignorant and uncurious as we do in the global South, we would all end up in nameless fucking graves as deaths by ignorance of the world we live in.
