- goethes_kind 2y agoI'm very happy with this one and in general I agree with the theories put forth. That press release is a bit fucked though. Where did European colonizers create inclusive economic institutions? In the US? Australia? Canada? South Africa? That's not an accurate portrayal of what really happened.
