I’m not from LATM, but same. I’ve been telling people for years that the US is not a net positive force in the world and people hold up whatever gadget they have and go “but they made this”. Yeah, on the backs of a bunch of poor people that you’ll never see nor care about, but because they’re not white, it doesn’t matter to you.

I think no country is someone’s friend … Everyone is there just for the gains
