RE: American Privilege
While it might seem to be defending the USA!USA!USA! to point out that Oz is right there in it with us, I reckon @sunlit7 has a good point: none of us are the USA, Oz, the UK, or the nations we reside in. None of them is just and incorruptible, and none of them are under our control.
I've argued bitterly with @sunlit7 in the past, but I won't allow them to take the brunt of your censure without standing in the breach with them.
The USA isn't the problem, and neither is Oz, because those are nations of people that have no say, have been indoctrinated from birth, and whose ears tingle with the sweet whisper of propaganda day and night, and that whom, when they see some truth through the veil of lies that hide horrible truths, are censored with extreme prejudice.
We, the people, are not the problem. Those that would be our overlords are, and they are running every country in the world.
