Exactly. Most of the "Third World" is only struggling because of countries like the US, UAE and Europe Union fucking everything up.
They cause the problems and then don't wanna deal with the consequences.
thats the thing thats missing from america-centric discussion of fascism: this shit is global. every country in “the west” is seeing the same rise of fascism in real time, all of it focused on murdering migrants. like giorgia meloni is campaigning to deport people to “migrant camps” in albania. last year the greek coast guard outright drowned a boat of 500 asylum seekers. and as that last post said im not dismissing the suffering of people within the US, i’m just saying its so supremely frustrating that every conversation is about the minutiae of american domestic policy and not the horrifying ultranationalist global trend scapegoating arabs and africans.
#and to all those people who say ~just send them back to their country to make that place better#firstly. fuck off. wars. famine. genocide. colonialism etc etc etc#but second. I have watched a lot of videos about why historically poor areas of the world are historically poor#and fun fact! sometimes it can't be fixed! sometimes because of geography and often because of colonialism!#so yay! congrats whities we really fucked it!#history#nationalism#racism#white supremisist
