    What has wealth do to with everything? Thinking money has anything to do with happiness is the stupidest take I’ve seen in day. Not months because there’s still the AfD.

    Also, everything is built on exploitation. And again, I’m not saying our government and system is good, it’s just not as shit as others who surveil and execute their citizens.

        So if your whole live is surveiled, you are on the brink of being executed if you are different, you work 9 to 9, you are then happy because you are slightly more wealthy and can do … well what? Pay Xi to be more free? Bribe the Maktoum? Or just do drugs to not suicide?

        Which countries are actually free and not build on exploitation then, excluding the arctis?

          The reason you believe all this nonsense is because you’ve uncritically accepted the propaganda that Western governments and Western corporate media have been flooding you with your entire life.

          I try to point people toward developing real media literacy.

          Adorable you think that your whole life isn’t surveiled in the west. Meanwhile, vast majority of people in China aren’t working 9 to 9, and in fact are happy as pretty much every survey on China shows. Maybe spent some time actually learning about China instead of making a clown of yourself in public?

            It’s not surveiled. I don’t have a phone with spyware preinstalled. There are no cameras, by law and in practice. I can pay in cash. I can wear what I want. I can choose a provider and they don’t even know who I am.

            If you ask north koreans, they are probably happy too. Because they don’t know that it can be different.
