> the fact someone else provided sources for you doen't absolve your comment from lacking them The comment I replied to had no sources as well and yet it isn't downvoted. > It sounds exactly like every other "USA is da best! The east is inferior in every way. We have zero problems." Actually my comment says the exact opposite, it says that at least the western part of the EU is less corrupt than the US. Do you realize that I said the west [of EU], not the west as in the US? You're the one who is thinking US-centric after all, thinking that when someone says "the west" they mean the US even though it's in a sentence that talks about parts of EU, this possibility didn't even occur to me - that's how foreign it is to me.
