    imperialism is shitty.

    But America really is the greatest nation in the world. On account of the fact that 100% of working class people here in the US hate what their government is doing.

      would you please clarify what you mean: what is the government doing that 100% of working class people in the US hate?

          To the contrary: there are so many potential stances if you take “100%” as a ballpark. But I think we’ve fallen into a common pitfall of non-verbal communication: I wasn’t trying to argue with you. I was simply asking for clarification out of curiosity.

          If it’s any consolation, I should point out that I do agree with you in thinking that America is great. We have our share of problems, some dire and heartbreaking. However it is my conviction that, given enough time, during which we will inevitably bear witness to many more injustices, they will be solved, if never to a satisfactory degree, that being the nature of progress.
