- rowanG077 7y agoI don't think any country could be considered "good". They are all "evil" to varying degrees.
- LB232323 7y agoWhat about my government? Nationalism teaches us that only every other government is wrong. We conflate love for our land and its people with the state and the exploiters who guide it. This is always convenient for both of the latter entities. If this political and economic system is a "necessary evil", we must ask ourselves: Who is benefitting from the evil and who is directing it? To convince ourselves that we are joined with an oppressor by social divisions is a timeless manipulation. Yet every economic crisis presents the opportunity for liberation.
