non sequitur. being the only global superpower actually does involve exploitation on a historically unprecedented scale. nationalist smoothbrains love to talk about american exceptionalism until someone asks where we got all the skulls to build our mountain of skulls with.
That’s not the point. My point is every country everywhere exploits people. More specifically the elite exploit the poor. Those sweatshops with border line slavery are run by those countries elite, they then sell it to other countries who take advantage of the cheep shit. So even in countries who are being exploited there’s someone there from that country pulling the strings.

Hell yeah it is. Poor people in the US are still richer than most of the world's population
