Poverty is such a weird concept when applied like this.
Much of chinas population were deemed as living in poverty, despite just… Living oldschool farming village lives like they always did. Might not have had much money, but they just lived like farmers and villagers.
Then a bunch of people invented a bunch of stuff, looked at these people who didn’t have those things, and said “man, are you poor! We better create some jobs for you…” and are now patting themselves on the back for taking these people out of their villages, and giving them the possibility to live for ABOVE 1.90$ a day.
Oh wow.
Ever since Trump got elected, we keep hearing a lot about South American prisons…
I’m pretty convinced they’re warming us up to concentration camps.
Guantanamo Bay was just expanded from fewer than 1000 cells to 30.000 cells.
