Cuba has a higher life expectancy than the US. Just because "US=rich" doesn't mean that poor people in the US aren't having a fucking hard time, massive inequality leads to this. Yesterday I saw a reel about a food program called "ugly potato day" and +15k people queued for hours to get some produce... In a single city... The USA is fucked.
Like, sure, colonial regions have it worse, but the root of the problem is the same: western capitalism fucked their lives.
So… you witness a little socialism in the US and claim it’s fucked? This is progress.
Charity is the opposite of socialism. Socialism ensures that everyone works and everyone can sustain themselves, charity is what happens in capitalism. I don't want people to rely on the good will of others and on motherfucking food stamps to survive.
Not to worry… to the MAGAs in line… it seems like socialism and hence pushes them just a little to the left… we will get there.
