I don't really understand this comment. I also feels it needlessly sets up a polarisation nobody asked for.
I questioned the US paradoxes on philanthropy and meritocracy.
For all I care, you can hold on to your "America first, whatever country second", "F*k yea, America" and all that.
- lobocinza 3y agoI'm not North American, the intention wasn't to polarize. I don't know what to answer. It feels like you don't like to have your beliefs questioned, so no point in talking.
- madsbuch 3y agoI am sorry about that. please question my beliefs! I am just a bit in doubt on what belief you question? you can derive from my statements that I don't think the current landscape in the US is entirely meritocraric or democratic as a single person can amass serious influence by investing in the stock market. you respond that at least the US is richer than the EU, which is probably right. But I don't understand what belief it challenges? That it should justify a less democratic or meritocratic system? please enlighten me :)
