Saw this comment on the commie side of TikTok. My gut tells me this is ultraleft bs, but perhaps my fellow hexbears can educate me on this discussion which I’m sure is not new.

I don’t see how a poor American on food stamps is responsible, even though a systematic analysis reveals that international superexploitation is a thing.

The American proletariat can and should organize in any case. I don’t see how Americans can build any sort of socialist movement if any organization at all is accused of being hypocritical.

    I kinda agree. Improving conditions in the first world entrench the status quo. If material conditions in the first world are not correct to inspire a mass movement to overthrow capital how are better living conditions going to help? All it does is make people more content. Any gains in living conditions for the first world come out of further exploitation of the third world.
