> America is...objectively the best place to live in the world rn
I'm American and a frequent international traveler, and I could not disagree more. Almost every other country I've been to has been superior in every way that truly matters. The only reason I stay here is because I don't want to abandon my loved ones.

Of course, maybe Thailand is better than the US in some or even a lot of the ways that matter, but not all of them. GDP per capita (PPP): Thailand: 26323, USA: 89105 GDP per capita (nominal): Thailand: 7767, USA: 89105 Human Development Index: Thailand: 0.798, USA: 0.938
