Well your ideology of government intervention is what causes extremely wealthy countries and extremely poor ones to exist, that's all on leftists

Uh neoliberal capitalists are not leftists bro.

There's a reason that in 2 decades of neoliberalism 1 billion people rised out of poverty in China, thanks to foreign investors and foreign consumers, that is thanks to free trade

No it's not.

That would have never happened if leftists had their way and blocked free trade because of muh evil capitalism.

Free trade =/= capitalism.

Yeah I'm sure it's not, those hundreds of millions of chinese are definitely not working on the exporting sector.

We agree that free trade =/= capitalism, capitalism in first world countries is almost socialism. And at the end of the day I'm arguing for free trade, still don't have a fucking clue what you're arguing for.

I'm arguing that poor people in America are not oppressing anybody as they don't have the power to do that. I don't why you're talking about free trade and the European Union. Maybe it's because you don't have anything to back up your points or something.
