   i see americans on other socials saying things like “liquidating the department of education turns us into a third world country” & it’s like first of all idk what alternative reality you came from where the cold war never ended, but as someone who’s from what you call a “third world country”, we still have a fucking department of education so really this is a YOU problem. bitch

     speaking as someone whose country was COLONISED by america: this is perhaps the most infuriating type of american exceptionalism & solipsism i encounter on the reg because even supposedly progressive americans pull this shit.

     when criticised, you lot are constantly comparing yourselves to “poorer” countries - not realising that often your country’s dumbass systems are WORSE than ours. even your fucking healthcare system makes the philippines’ one look somewhat decent
